Anne, Edinburgh Scotland

+ Lightweight for a cam with a proper lens. Not much heavier than a handycam.

- The image can be a bit grainy in low lighting.

Score 9.5/10

Nicholas, Lincoln

+ For an entry into the pro camcorder arena this is in my opinion the current best buy, super image quality, great lens , intuitive controls. It hard to fault and beats just all at the same price that Sony, jvc or Panasonic offer... currently!

- Nothing, nope I really cannot think of anything.
