Best Camcorder Quality

what is the best camcorder to use thats under $800 for my clip store and HD quality?


Its for a small tshirt business i started but i do short little interviews and want to shoot small little events i have so good sound quality would be nice as well as zoom? also would it be compatible with macbook pro?

For your budget I would suggest Canon VIXIA HV40 HD HDV Camcorder with 10x Optical Zoom
# HDV format delivers high-definition video to miniDV tape
# Genuine Canon 10x HD video lens; SuperRange Optical Image Stabilizer
# DIGIC DV II image processor; 24p Cinema Mode, 30p Progressive Mode
# 2.7-inch Multi-Angle Vivid Widescreen LCD
and it compatible with Macbook

No more or less than expected

by J. Mullins from Edmonds, WA on 2010-02-06
It is important to understand what you are buying when you purchase a $50 camcorder (that’s how much it was when I bought it). It will not compare to a $299 camcorder! So I gave it 4 stars, because as long you hold still, it takes very good photos and videos and is packed with features for a crazy low price. The sound quality is great, never an issue there. We bought both of our kids one for Christmas and they adore them. That’s really what this camera is ideal for I think… for kids or for capturing little events to throw on youtube. We had a problem with the camera we received, but Aiptek took care of the issue directly.

Great for a little bit

by Karen Courtright from on 2010-08-01
It seemed to be a steal for the $199.99 price, but at $299.99 it’s on the verge of being a rip-off. Look around before you buy.


I love this little camera

by E. Elizondo from on 2010-07-11
I got this on sale for $200.00 during Aiptek’s Memorial Day promotion. Definitely a great buy for that price.
Pro’s:
-Ease of use
-Great low light sensitivity
-Great optics
-Compact size
-Mini HDMI to HDMI connectivty to HDTV
-Aiptek’s tech support is superb (First camera I had was glitchy but Aiptek actually tested a new one and replaced it)
-Ext Mic Jack
-Pause recording feature
-Still camera mode w/ “burst” feature (snaps 10 pics in a row, even if you are recording video)
-Excellent quality video w/ little or no distortion.

Con’s:
-Ergonomics. Hard to get to the thumb controls unless you strap it to your fingers and not your palm
-Sound quality is a bit “tinny” but a good external mic takes care of that (This mic really works well with the camera… GE 98950 Detachable Desktop Microphone)
-Battery life is less than what Aiptek states (can get some extra batteries and charger for cheap here on Amazon)
-Still picures with telephoto and low light a bit blurry unless you keep camera really really still.
-Ext Mic records in mono- and not stereo (but overall sound seems better with ext mic)
-Built-in stereo mic on back of view screen. If you flip it, the mic points the wrong way. (Ext mic solves that problem)
-Questionable quality. Although my first camera was “glitchy” (see above) my replacment has worked well. Camera body is “plasticky” but parts fit together well.
-CMOS sensor, not CCD.

Overall, happy with this “go anywhere” camera, now called the AHD-H12 Extreme. At $200.00, it’s a steal if you can find it.


Good camera for the price

by Fen from on 2010-07-01
I bought this camera in May for 199.99 and for what I pay is an excellent camera but for 299.99 not so much because with a little more money you can get a Panasonic hdctm 15 or a Sanyo fh1a. The aiptek has more features but the Sanyo and the Panasonic take better video.


You get what you paid for…

by Gergely Kovacs from Texas, USA on 2010-06-07
Quite frankly, this camera takes very poor quality videos; only barely better than standard definition. But, it cost $300! If you do not have a lot of money for an HD camcorder and you need one quickly, you might be satisfied with this. Otherwise, stay away!


Nice try but no cigar.

by Robert Porter from on 2010-05-09
A lot of features for the money but both the video and still results are marginal. My Kodak Zi8 with half the megapixels gets better results by a good margin. It is an upgrade from standard definition and some people will accept the low performance because of the low price. You get what you pay for. As for me, I sent mine back and will be looking at higher priced, better video cameras.
