This is one of the easiest cameras I have used. You just point and take pictures plug into your TV and enjoy. It is that easy.

Fantastic Jun 29, 2008
After a pretty bad experience with another camcorder, (rhymes with camsung) we were pretty adamant about doing our research. For the price range, I would have to say that the 810 is going to be one of the better cameras you will find.
After letting it charge and getting it going, which was really easy, we have shot more video in the last two days than two years with our other p.o.s.

Positives-
-The zoom is fluid and crisp.
-quick start is a wonderful feature; it actually takes a second to start recording once you hit the quick start button.
-I am glad that I have the option to record to DVD, hard disc or memory stick.
-Light weight.
-responsive touch screen
-have not had any disc errors yet. (Main problem with other hunk of junk)
-Infrared recording. (My wife loves this feature because we can now record our kids while they are sleeping.)
-decent picture quality, if you know how to use the camera feature. But who really uses a camcorder as a camera?

There are probably more to list but I am already getting long in the teeth.

Negatives-
-Screen is a little small, but not small enough to be a huge issue. I just have big hands and my fat fingers sometimes have a hard time pushing the right buttons.
-The battery life is not the greatest around, maybe an hour of actual use. I plan on buying another high capacity battery soon.

I have not had the camera long so I really have no other complaints at the moment. I will update if I find something else that might throw people off.

I would recommend to anyone to buy this camcorder. It does its job well and is really easy to use, once you figure it out.

Don't waste your money Jun 04, 2008
We bought the video camera so we could bring a light weight camera on a trip to Europe. We will not be bringing it. View screen too small and you can't see any of the touch screen functions you need press if there is any sun at all. Photos are very grainy. We were disappointed. The only positive is that it is light weight.
