After visiting my father and using his Palmcorder (Same model) I realized I HAD to have one! The ease of this camera is noticable from the first time you pick it up. I have been in the market for a digital camera and a camcorder and was thinking I was going to have to spend LOTSA money for 2 pieces of equiptment. Now, I DONT! This palmcorder is a video camera, web cam, and a digital camera all in one! The ease of the software is great too! The camera is a little on the pricey side, but well worth it when you see what types of pictures it takes! Also, its got a AWESOME zoom on it! The only thing I would say that is negative abut this camera, is where the record button is located.
