If you're just looking for something to catch special moments with the kids (or in our case the grandkids) or you want to amuse each other at parties then this is a great little video camera for the price! And if you don't especially need much zooming capability, then this will work for you! If you're wanting something more high end or you have higher aspirations than you-tube as your viewing audience then you may want to pass and get something more expensive! I was actually pleasantly surprised with the quality and with how well the videos seemed to damp out background noise. This is literally point and shoot and so at times the biggest problem is a steady hand. I'm considering the tripod accessory at this point just in case we want a steadier video.
All things considered I'm very pleased to have purchased it as a gift for my wife! It's one more weapon in her arsenal for the ongoing task of archiving hours of footage of our three year old grandson to go along with the tens of thousands of pictures that have been taken since his birth. It's a tough job, but some grandma's gotta do it!

This is a very good deal for the $50 price that I paid for it.
Pros:
1) Surprisingly good on batteries. I expected it to eat through batteries but a set of alkaline batteries lasted for a couple of hours.
2) Small and light weight. My last video recorder was a vhs-c unit that got heavy after awhile. This unit fits easily into a pocket. It also comes with a wrist strap.
3) Fairly simple to use.
Cons:
1) Video Quality is fair. Not great.
2) Buttons are slow to respond. Sometimes I wonder if I pushed the button hard enough and then it will finally respond.
3) Somewhat awkward holding position. This is really a nit.
4) Memory not removable. This can be a real shortfall if you want to record an afternoon full of activity without bringing your laptop along.
Notes:
1) I haven't had any of the download problems that others have talked about. I must have a unit with updated firmware.
2) The flip out USB connector is nice but I would be careful with stress. I don't think that the connector will hold the unit up. I use a USB extension cable with my desktop computer.

This little digital camcorder is just plain slick...!
It doesn't have a couple things my old camcorder has,
but my old camcorder doesn't fit in my pants pocket.
It takes very good videos, the software is simple, and
installs upon first connection to your PC.
That is nice, no humping around a CD for install when I go to the kids house.
Videos look good on my 50" big screen so I can walk around at gatherings and then show all what I recorded before the party breaks up.
Mine is one of the older 30 minute units.
It would be nice to have a unit that runs longer, but I have yet to fill it up (30 minutes is a long time in video) and I have used only one set of AA batteries in over a month and use it every other day for business also.
I record some repair jobs I do to show other employees how certain things are done...
It would be nice to pick a resolution, to drop it lower.
Takes good pictures inside with low light also.
For an inexpensive device it is great...!

I love my little camera I can take it everywhere without having to lug a big camcorder with me. It fits in my pocket and my husband can enjoy all the little moments he misses while at work and it takes no extra work on my part. Only con is I wish the sound was a little louder you have to be close to get my children's voice.

I purchased this flip video and it worked fine for about 3 weeks. The USB plug came off while downloading videos. Pure Digital Technologies refused to replace the camera (out of warranty) WOW only a 1 month warranty? Bought a Insignia camera works great.
