Hi all!! Welcome to the world of shopping reviews... I love collecting information on the upcoming gadgets & electronic products... So I’ll keep a track of all helpful comments and feedbacks from experts... Check out my collection of reviews on some my favorite products.

Nice but Keep looking

I got this for my daughter's graduation. Taped it got home and I can't wach it in any of my dvd players or my computer. It's too much work I"m going to stick with my old camcorder and downloading what I have to a dvd its longer, but easier

Great entry level hard drive camcorder

I would highly recommend this camcorder to anybody seeking a hard disk drive camcorder. The CCD may not be a full mega pixel but the video quality is decent. Also it is very easy to use. Its size is also an advantage. The 34x optical zoom works really well and when you add the digital zoom you can zoom up to 68x before the video quality starts deteriorating. The digital image stabilization works good, but not as well as the optical image stabilizers in Panasonic's cameras and camcorders. You will need to buy a spare battery though because the included battery has a short life.

Good camera, but one drawback

In my opinion, I use the camera for just about everything, I record anyting that looks interesting. But, I tell you, it's a pain getting them edited, or onto a dvd with current software I had. I have to use their specific software, because my current dvd software doesn't support .mod format. If they would have recorded into another format, it would be the perfect camera. But for that downfall, I give it an eight.

BATTERY OPTIONS DISAPPOINTING

Buy if you plan on making good, long movies and will use often. For occasional use, more basic camcorders can be found for less.

A good camera for the price

Overall we've very happy with the camera. We went to Best Buy to purchase it and got the warranty, which covers cleanings, and just about any form of damage (including if I drop it, which could very well happen) except loss or theft. Hopefully we'll continue to be happy with our purchase.

Not perfect but it suites my needs quite well

Wow, these HDD cams get such negative reviews, but IMHO I really like this cam. Of course, things can be improved(i.e. a better lens, record in .mpg, not .mod) but for family activities and around the house shooting this cam is great! To be honest, I really could not tell the diff b/w the MG255 and MG155 video quality. If you really wanna see improvement you'll have to go with the MG555. Anyhow, I love the size and I love the HDD. I love that it records in a file format that is easily transferable to the computer(as well as easily editable[magix is a great program for beginners]). I would definitely recommend! I really don't understand the negative press. It's definitely not perfect but it suites my needs quite well...

The camera is a good deal

I bought this camera for the grandkids to use when the family gets together because they like taking pictures. It is easy to use, but doesn't have automatic focus - you have to hold the camera real steady to get a clear picture. The picture quality is very good when you hold the camera steady. The 2" display is nice, and I like the compact size. For the price, the camera is a good deal.

Excellent computer

I bought this laptop computer about two months ago. I use it everyday. It is lightweight, very portable, fast and the screen is fantastic. I spent quite a bit of time looking for "the perfect" computer for my needs. This sony has the best combination lightweight portability and features.

Dell 926 not worth the $$$

I recently purchased the Dell Photo 926 based on the list of features and price. It sounded like a pretty decent deal. I was VERY wrong! This printer is okay on black/white but it's color print is terrible. Even when the print quality is set to Quality the finished product is quite poor. Also, their ink cartridges are very small and require frequent replacement if you are doing any significant amount of printing. Of course, the frequently needed new print cartridges can ONLY be purchased from Dell, creating a nice annuity income for them. All the features on this unit mean nothing if the print quality is so poor.

Fantastic little box

I love this little printer. It does everything I want it to do, and has all the functionality of a large all in one printer, without the massive bill to go with it. I think Dell is right on the money with what customers want. They have won a customer for life!!!
