Summary: Nice Camera

Comment: I've had this camera for a while now. I am very pleased with the dvd's. I have recorded in 'fine' and the dvd's are nice and clear. I recorded Christmas in 'standard' and it gave me twice the time. Looks good on the monitor, but haven't finalized it yet and viewed it on the tv. Looking forward to that. I haven't used the still photography and probably won't. We have a still digital that takes great pictures (Canon). I am very pleased with this camera. There were no reviews when I ordered and was weary about it. Happy now though. Great price on Amazon too.
