Just bought it and so far so cool. It has logical, easy to use features, great graphics and sound and a nice size and overall feel. It also comes with a mini DV tape and an a/c power supply ...Another cool feature is when you turn the lcd to face the subject, the image also appears in the viewfinder. Amazon had the best deal I could find on this product by several hundred dollars.

I bought this camera after seeing the reviews on amazon.com, in particular that it was durable. I enjoyed doing videos with it. But very soon after the warranty expired, the video stopped working. It still worked as a VCR, but not as a camera. When I sent it for repair at one of the Sharp partners, the bill to repair would have been higher than the cost of the camera!!! So be aware that this is not in fact a durable camera, and Sharp USA did nothing to help the confidence of this ex-customer.

Great Camera. Tiny, easy to use. Clarity of pictures and video screen excellent. Turnaround viewing screen enables pictures to be taken at any angle. Overall *****

I bought my camera 2 month ago and i am deligthted.
As the product is discontinued by sharp is a little difficult to find accessories.

Lens cap broke, but other than that, I love this camera, It handles well while accompanying me all around the globe
