Unreliable Camera

Date of Review:  Nov 20, 2004
Review: I use this camera at work. I just took it out on a shoot and I get back. When I go to look at my footage, it's all bad except for a few minutes. Everything else is choppy and half of it only has audio and a few cut ins.
in my mind a good camera...
