Great entry level handycam

I bought this dvd video camera for my family and we love it. It has 20x optical zoom and 800x digital zoom. The 20x optical zoom is awesome for the price. Most other video cameras (entry level) only come with 12x. The battery that came with the camera is very good also. The quality is great under HQ video setting, and very good under the SP setting. You can take a DVD-RW or +RW right out of the camera and play it on most dvd players. For around $450-$550 US this is a great video camera.

Overall I really like this video camera and it has been well used already since Christmas Eve.
