- Poor quality
- We've returned this item within three weeks. The picture quality is very poor and unstable. It definately has a big problem with stability. The HD picture is clear but it changes the color all the time while watching the video, it is very disturbing. I do not recommend this product to anyone. We bought another HD camcorder and it is great! Good luck.

- Great video camera..very happe
- I love this camera. This is my fourth Xacti (C40-C6-HD700) and now HD1000. I've had it for about three months.
Night and day comparison to the older models. I only shoot in 1080x720 60fps and I'm extremely pleased. I upload all footage to Sony Vegas and render a new mp4 file for online places like Motionbox and Viemo.
Does okay at night as well. This shouldn't be compared to some JVC high end professional camera.
If you get a good price on this unit I'd go for it. I purchased mine new from Amazon @ $450
Good luck,

- coolest portable HD camera
- This a great portable hd camera. Easy to use, good functionality. I can run videos easy and take pictures on the fly. Great product, easy transition of downloading your data to pc or connect thru HDMI & stream your videos & pics on an HD TV. Great for capturing the moments in life.

- Not totally Mac Compatible but Close
- I just purchased this unit knowing it was becoming obsolete as far as the model for Sanyo. I would have to say if you consider the price, functionality, options, quality and size, this is a great deal!
My observations:
1. It is Mac compatible, expect in the "highest" HD movie recording setting. There are plug-ins that allow you to playback the video on your Mac, but for iMovie you will still have issues importing. The next lower quality (resolution) setting for me is still better than my mini-dv tape unit, and works fine with iMovie. I suggest MPEG Streamclip, a free utility to help you out.
2. The still camera function is better than I anticipated.
3. Get at least a 8gig SD card. Look for sales.
4. I would search the web for advice on how best to set the camera settings, as well as if you are a Mac user for optimal results
Enjoy!!! - 2008-10-03, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
