It is by far the lowest budget camcorder I could possibly find on Amazon. I only need it for evidence of my actions at my business. I don’t need something too high quality. I don’t need something with all kinds of functions and buttons that I don’t understand. I am not very tech savvy. All I need is a simple zoom in zoom out, power on power off, record, playback, and that’s about it. This camcorder only supports SD cards that are 32 GB. I don’t know if there is an option for higher memory card that this camcorder would support. however, I’m going to stick with the 32gb since I don’t really need it for much else other than 30-minute recordings or so. I absolutely love how small and compact this thing is. I bought this along with a 32gb memory card, memory card reader, as well as a tripod and I got everything for about $110. Not bad for what I need it for. Just as a FYI this does not support external microphone setup. Also, you will have to format your SD card while it is inside the camcorder. Without doing this your videos will not show up as a readable files on your computer.
This is also a great option if you are new to vlogging or making videos. It is pretty much foolproof with a point and shoot easy operation for starting videos. Eventually I might buy something better.

I was a little concerned about the video quality when looking at the display on the device, but after watching the first video I recorded I was very impressed. Good buy!

This is definitely a “cheap” camera. It even feels kind of flimsy and delicate in my hands, like the view finder can be accidentally pulled a little too hard and broken.
I do like that it can be put onto a tripod or scissor arm, and interfacing with my PC to use as a webcam is very easy and painless. The plug and play functionality works in seconds: plug it in, let Windows find it, and then select it as your camera in your conference or recording software. It also finds the SD card almost instantly, making it easier to remove video footage or photos quickly. While you’re using it this way, the battery stays charged as well, which is nice. If you’re using it unplugged, it comes with two batteries for easy swapping out when you’re on the go.
That’s kind of where it ends for me. I purchased this with the intent of filming art videos. However, the white balance is fully auto, even when you set it to one of the other modes, which means the video is constantly flickering and changing colour. Changing the colour modes doesn’t seem to change anything at all. The EV and ISO will stay where I put them, so while the brightness and light levels aren’t flickering, my green background will shift from yellowy-green to blue-green very rapidly. It makes the video pretty much unusable. It also completely lacks a focus adjuster. It will zoom in and out with what feels and looks like an digital zoom, but if you want to record something up close, the picture is very blurry and out of focus.
It also only supports up to 32GB, which at full auto will only record about an hour and a half of footage in an outdated AVI format. This is very poorly optimised for today’s needs and technology, considering you can get about ten hours of footage in the same space with an MP4 file.
It records, but I can’t say I’m impressed with anything else it does.

Camera is good. But memory card is not there with product. You need to purchase it to use the camera.

Just so we are comparing apples to apples, we have to set the stage correctly for a good comparison and review. Sure, there are probably 100 camcorders out there ranging from less than $100 to perhaps $500 or more. Each step up means more features, more pixels, this and that… So it’s important to make sure we are comparing camcorders in the same category, right? Ok. So..
This one I’d put in the “Basic Intro” camcorder category that is less than $100 — in fact, it is quite impressive that this camcorder is less than $70 and yet it delivers full 1080p HD with a 24 MP CMOS sensor. It has more pixels than my Samsung Galaxy S10, that’s for sure! So right there for less than $100, it’s got a lot to offer in terms of pixel capacity. The user can select 3 different image quality but I keep it on full HD all the time. Why not?
It takes a standard SD card up to 32 GB in size – That’s very nice because you know videos take a lot memory. I have a 16 GB high speed 10x SD card and it works very well for my applications and a day of shooting cat videos. The bottom of the camcorder has a pre-threaded adapter hold to accommodate standard sized tripod–which is perfect for those stable, long-shot situations. Lastly, the camcorder’s viewing screen can turn 360 degrees so you can see it from any angle while keeping the shot steady. I am attaching some photos so you can see what I am talking about.
It comes with TWO batteries! That is very cool, actually. Never want to run out of battery power so always have a backup battery in your pocket. I like that a lot. The camcorder charges the battery while plugged in, then swap out to charge the other one. There is a combo USB charging cable (and charging adapter) with AV adopters, too. It would be an extra point if it comes with a separate, externally plugged charger so I can shoot the video while charging the other battery. Just a thought.
Camcorder can be stored in a soft pouch and the pouch has a belt loop so you can attach the pouch to your belt, shoot your video, and stow the camcorder after. Very handy!
The function buttons are all correctly placed for a camcorder. The record button is on the right thumb, the zoom (in and out) is on the top where the index finger rests, etc. It is configured as a right-handed user’s camcorder–I find that interesting because I haven’t yet come across a left-handed camcorder! So, this is probably an industry-standard. Anyway, for right-handed use, all the buttons are at the right place.
Shooting this camcorder is simple–there is not a lot of functions to mess with. It is almost as easy as point and shoot. In many ways I prefer that–I don’t want to have mess with 3 settings before I can shoot. Sometimes the moment is so fleeting you don’t have time to mess with settings.
I also like that I can turn the sound off. The default is sound ON which I don’t like it–so I turn it off for my personal taste. Sometimes in a place you don’t want to be making a lot of noise–wherever you are supposed to silence your cell phone, you should also silence your video camcorder. Right?
Turning on (i.e. flipping open) the view finder automatically turns it On, and off, likewise, flipping off the view finder. Camcorder is ready in about 2-3 seconds. Push the red Record button, it begins.
Now let’s talk about image quality, the good, and the limitations. When running at FHD (full HD mode), it takes a lot of processing power than standard quality. Under standard quality the image (i.e. movie) is quite smooth but lack the full HD quality. Running at FHD the frame rate is not as high is it can be. I find this camcorder limited in use in those high dynamic situations. For example, trying to video record a fast action football game, you will find the frame rate needing a bit more boost. However, for more static situations such as a video blogging or just basic recording where you aren’t capturing fast-moving objects, then yes, it will do fine. It is more than adequate for the purposes described in the latter. But, again, remember that we are classifying a sub-$100 camcorder so the expectation is that we won’t be taking this out to high-speed boating for a spin. So keep that in mind.
The video file output is in the standard .AVI format. A number of softwares are out there to process it and compress it into formats such as MPEG. Camcorder does not have internal software for those other file outputs, but it is not an issue because plenty free software out there for AVI processing.
So, in conclusion, I can say that you should expect to:
1. Use this camcorder in a pretty static, well-lit environment. It is especially good if it is on a tripod.
2. Understand the correct classification of a $70 camcorder that offers 1080p full HD pixel quality.
3. It is simple to use, lightweight, point-and-shoot, down to earth style of operation.
4. Comes with a few gizmos such as extra battery, carrying case, charger/AV combo cable.
5. A 24MP rated at 15 FPS.
Thanks for reading! Hope this helps you make your decision as there are hundreds of camcorders to pick from!! 🙂

The camcorder itself worked on its own but I could not get it to work with my computer so I tried to return it. The problem is they charge me to return the item because I have to take it to the USPS or have them pick it up, which I don’t get since most Amazon items I have ever had to return I can just conveniently drop off at a UPS store, free of charge.
