Great basic camcorder

by ClaireMomm , Feb 15 '00
Pros: easy to use, lightweight, 3 inch lcd display
Cons: poor audio on camera playback
We'd been putting off the investment of a camcorder for many reasons. The biggest of which was the size and weight of camcorders. It used to be that you had to practically lug around a suitcase for the camcorder and all it's accessories. I recently...

Great Cam is You're on a Budget

by tedhammond , Mar 18 '00
Pros: Some good features, easy to use, great external recording capacity, easy to hold
Cons: lacks some newer features, no image stabilization
This camcorder is probably one of the best you can find at it's price. The manufacturer's price is $500 I think, but most stores have it for $350. Compare that to the Sony Handycams, and it's a lot cheaper. However, it lacks some of the features you can...

For a inexpensive camcorder it packs a punch!

by SSagert , Mar 28 '01
Pros: Easy to use, video playback w/ sound.
Cons: none yet.
My husband and I received the Sharp VL-E630U 8mm Camcorder for christmas. We have never owned a camcorder and were a little apprehensive at first.

Of course male testosterone soon kicked into over drive with the aroma of a "new...

The Camcorder that Could'nt

by parnol02 , Jul 05 '00
Pros: Attractive, Nice Features.
Cons: Not very durable.
On first inspection, I felt that this was the camcorder for me. I was working with a limited budget and it just seemed so advanced! I loved the screen and the appearance of the camcorder. However, as I made my way to purchase this product, I had a bad...

You can't go wrong with this one!

by vendetta , Jan 20 '00
Pros: Affordable and very compact size!
Cons: The zoom isn't much...and the LCD is small.
I recently purchased this camera because I wanted an easy to use and affordable camcorder that would capture all the moments down here in miami beach. I got exactly what I had been hoping for. Not only is it really simple to use, but it also is very...

A Great first Camcorder

by jociegil , Jan 08 '00
Pros: LCD screen, ease of use, fun to use
Cons: no special effects, only 16X zoom
This is a great camera for someone who wants the basics and ease of use. The 3" color LCD screen means you can record without your eye glued to a tiny viewfinder (a lifesaver if you wear glasses!), and you can then play tapes back and watch them on...

Always on the move? Good camera for it.

by rangerstyle , Jan 12 '00
Pros: Easy to use, nice screen to watch what your recording
Cons: cant enter self titles, at angles the screen is sometimes hard to see
I bought the Sharp for my wife's birthday, and have found myself using it more than her because it was so fun and easy to use.

One great advantage to this recorder is the fact that the 3" viewscreen is great for myself (and anyone else...

view yourself too!

by alverne , Jan 26 '00
Pros: It is compact, and you need not put it in your eye to see what you are shooting. You can actually put it in an overcoat pocket. You can lock it in your Glove compartment. Put it in your brief case.
Cons: The Crystal in bright sun light sometimes makes it difficult to see the target. Be careful Batteries might fall out of case, as you forget to zip it up.
When I bought my first one I was attending a convention and wanted something i could hand to someone to get a shot of me getting blessed with an Award for selling Insurance. I lent to family members who finally loved it so much I gave it to one. The...

My wife and I recently had our first children...yes, that's right, we had twins on March 3. These were our first children and my parents first grandchildren (although they have been asking for them since we got married!)

My dad and I went...

Stay away - for your own good.

by kansasjman , Oct 27 '02
Pros: LCD screen.
Cons: Battery life, reliability, fit and finish.
I was working with a tight budget 3 years ago on the fateful day I bought this camcorder. I paid $360 for it with a 10% coupon at Best Buy.


It worked OK for about 3 months, but a mere week after the 90 day warranty expired, the whole audio...

Know What You want before you buy

by Phantom6000 , Nov 14 '99
Pros: Price
Cons: no Image stabilizer.That should never be optional
Do the research on all the functions of a camcorder and know what you need before you buy.
Don,t make the same mistake I did.I bought the sharp viewcam but I never owned a camcorder before, and I wish I didn't own one now.
I had been thinking...

Wish I bought a Sony

by northrup , May 10 '00
Pros: Lightweight, cheap
Cons: Lousy tripod support, low-light capabilities
This camera has great picture quality, and it's easy to use... but I'm constantly annoyed by it.

First, when you flip it over to 'camera' mode, it doesn't automatically record... but it does show picture on the display. Many times I've...

by decorate4u , Sep 10 '00
Pros: Great video shots
Cons: short battery life
My husband purchased this camera as a Christmas present in 1999, and I use it all of the time. I love the small size of the camera, it stores nicely in a baby bag or medium purse. The zoom functions work wonderful and I love the title options. We have...

Good Camera, Good Price

by tredog331 , Mar 29 '00
Pros: Exelent all around camcorder
Cons: Big, Bulky
I recieved the camcorder as a gift and it has preformed beyond my expectations. It is a little awkward holding the camera but the picture quality and zoom make up for it. It also has a great digital zoom and many other functions.

I brought...
