Canon DC22

Pros: Excellent bright light image quality, good still camera, very compact, nice eyepiece, bright pop-out monitor

Cons: MiniSD card, low light image quality, shallow tripod screw, built-in light w/video, low battery capacity

Pros: Comes with two batteries

Cons: Does not performed advertised features.

The Bottom Line: I would ask lots of questions of the salesman before buying any camera like this. If you don't get what you want, walk away.
