sMiLe :) Your on Candid Camera!

Date of Review:  Jan 4, 2001
Review: Let me start by saying I didn't actually buy this camera. But I did get it for Christmas. Ever since 1995 when my son was born I had a video camera but that one I had was a VHS size camera. No small tapes, nothing like that. I didn't complain then,...

"Sharp"-er than Sony

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2001
Review: When our Sony 8mm camcorder broke down, for the 10th time, we finally decided to buy a new one. Especially since the Christmas holiday was upon us, we didn't want to miss any of the memories. My husband and I went out and researched all the...

I see you!

Date of Review:  Oct 6, 2000
Review: I received this camcorder as a birthday present from my parents this year. I have used it so much. After the birth of our baby, I borrowed my parents? camcorder. Their camcorder is about 4 years old. I hated looking through that little peephole. So...

Say cheese !!

Date of Review:  Mar 16, 2001
The Bottom Line: I recommend this camcorder for it's ease of use, solid features, picture effects, affordability, reputation and "funability".
Review: Hubby and I had been wanting a new camcorder for sometime. Our old one, an RCA, worked great and never gave us a problem, but it was getting old and a friend had offered to buy it, so we decided to start thinking about a new one. (We had the RCA for...

even my dog knows how to use this

Date of Review:  May 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you can find one cheap (around $300), get it. 8mm/Hi8 format is slowly losing out to the mini DV format.
Review: The Sharp Viewcams are extremely easy to use. Flick the switch from OFF to CAMERA, press record, and presto, you're recording. The 3" LCD screen is great--it gives good resolution plus it makes recording a snap. Playback is just as easy. Flick the...

My Sharp Camcorder

Date of Review:  Oct 30, 2002
The Bottom Line: Simple, Great, Easy to use and opporate.
Review: I have owned my Sharp Camcorder for about a year now. All in all, this is a easy to understand and opporate camcorder. With simple easy to follow buttons and guides you'll find yourself recording everything. One thing that I really like about the...

SHARP on Video, SHORT on quality

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 2000
Review: I searched for nearly 2 months for a camcorder for my wife. I finally chose the Sharp VL-AH60U Hi-8 Viewcam. When weighed against the other models in its class, the VL-AH60U comes out ahead. It is light weight, EXTREMELY user friendly & offers many...

Well, ok, I'm really biased here, but it is a good camcorder

Date of Review:  Nov 7, 2000
The Bottom Line: Good for an inexpensive camcorder. Well built and worth the money.
Review: Background
This camcorder was not mine, but my parents'. They bought it several years ago, and I used it a lot up until Feb 2000 (at which point I bought a Canon GL-1 Digital Camcorder)

Picture quality

Good Camera/Complicated Menu

Date of Review:  Aug 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: In the end, I think its a good camera, I except for the menu.
Review: This camera all in all is pretty good. It has fade in fade out, picture in picture (unfortunately, you need to be in the perfect position to aim the square exactly where you want that extra zoom in, hope this makes sense) The LCD screen is kind of...

If god had a camcorder...

Date of Review:  Feb 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: Anyone who has some extra money should purchase this camcorder because it is one of the best things to invest in. You can record memories that will last forever.
Review: First off, I bought this camcorder with money that I received for Christmas. It was one of the best purchases I have ever made. It is extremely easy to use. It has 400x zoom. The only problem with the 400x zoom is that if the camera is not sitting...
