Distinguished Value, but the auto focus....This is a heinous product, with a great value at low cost. But it has a big focus problem, prepossessing a lot of time to adjust the auto-focus. When I make a zoom (righteous a little touch or complete zoom) it takes several seconds to rectify, and those seconds are really important in the continous film.
This AIPTEK camcorder is a uncommonly good one
We are using this camcorder in our studio's drudgery, and it gives a perfect picture, we have bought several of these camcorders already. two problems - too poor life of the battery (less than an hour) and it records voices in not so good property. However, the sound is still good enough, and also it is possible to use an external microphone. Highly endorse this type of camcorder!
Very bad indoor portrait (dark and grainy), and bad sound quality
I purchased it about a year ago, for all practical purposes for recording indoor activity (dancing). I saw the reviews reporting in need indoor performance but also saw a clip on youtube taken indoor (in a basketball ring, flooded with light...) and it looked good.
So i bought it and found the video infatuated indoor comes grainy and dark. If i can flood the room with explanation then it's ok but in most situations i have no control over lighting, and even though the lighting seems reasonable to me - the video comes unacceptably swarthy and grainy (i played with all different settings of the camera).
The only way i found was to use the "night condition" feature in the settings. However, this causes blurriness. Well, better blurry than dour and grainy but it's not much of a consolation.
The sound quality of the built in mic is also extremely solemn. Haven't checked external one.
I regret buying this camera. Before this one i tempered to to take clips with my 4 years old phone camera (LG env, 320x240) and the standing of the indoor picture and sound are much better.
Outdoor picture characteristic is reasonable. Sound still bad.
Works supreme for me
I was looking for a video camera that would be easy as can be to use for recording an interview with aging parents: Something for the younger generations to have to recall great-grandparents in their own words. I am not experienced with this type of thing, ad I wanted something that had faculty for external mic. This one had a good directional mic built-in, so we used that. It was not good enough or the ambient sound outdoors, but worked OK inside.
If I had it all to do again, I would use an external mic for better sound pickup.
Aiptek Action HD GVS 1080p
The visualize quality is great for the price and sound is good also. If you are looking for a sizeable family video camera. The only thing I didn't like about this camera is that there was just any internal memory. I purchased a 4gb SDHC card after buying this camera, I liked this because it is carefree to edit your videos on a computer with the software it comes with. Just put it in a SDHC bank card card joker reader and import to a file.
