tempting, but the reviews are scaring me a little.

(by the way, the "free shipping" icon isn't popping up for me on this. The fine print of the free shipping offer says the icon has to be on the page for hte item to be included.)

I love Mini-DV Cameras!!! They're so extra tight. I just made a movie this week with my friend. I eventually should buy one of these, instead of always using my dad's TRV 900... It's pretty hella though.

this camcorder may not be the best but I would get it over the zr10.... also would make a good editing firewire dump deck (dave the motor on your nicer camcorder)

Link to the product

I got this camera for my cousin two months ago from cameraworld.com for the same price, plus they were offering a free scooter with purchase then.

The camera is pretty good for the price tag, despite of the reviews.

Not really pocket size, though.
