Reviews for this GoPro camcorder (2 expert reviews (rating 80 / 100) • 282 user reviews): "The GoPro HD Hero2 boasts improved optics, a few new video- and still-photo-shooting modes, and backward compatibility with current HD Hero accessories....As improved as it is, the Hero2's interface can still be a bit confusing for the first-time user....For starters, the Hero2 features a new glass lens that should be sharper and more durable than the old lens...Where the Hero1 featured only one red recording indicator LED, the Hero2 features four (one enlarged..."

Reviews for this Sony camcorder (5 expert reviews (rating 59 / 100) • 17 user reviews): "The HC-X900M is the replacement for last year's HDC-TM900 flagship HD camcorder from Panasonic, but if you're looking for hot new features or exciting updates then you should prepare to be disappointed...The Bloggie Touch is available in two models: a 4GB version ( MHS -TS10) and an 8GB version ( MHS -TS20...With the same risky new sensor, this impressive bargain has great low light performance and a plethora of manual controls..."

Reviews for this Toshiba camcorder (2 expert reviews (rating 60 / 100) • 12 user reviews): "Toshiba Camileo P100 camcorder offers exceptional features but proves a mixed bag...Beyond the comfy pistol-grip, the Camileo P100 can be fussy to work with, especially for people with big fingers...Looking at other features, the Camileo P100 offers a mixed bag..."

Reviews for this Samsung camcorder (6 expert reviews (rating 69 / 100) • 87 user reviews): "Robust, waterproof and shockproof; smart user interface; flip-out USB...Stiff shutter release button; no internal storage (uses MicroSD)...The latest attempt comes from Samsung, whose two-tone red and black W200 sports many of the same features as the Flip, as well as a similarly chubby look...Armed with a BSI CMOS sensor, the W200 is resolutely an HD camcorder, recording video in two resolutions...The microphone worked reasonably well, and the built-in speakers..."

Reviews for this JVC camcorder (4 expert reviews (rating 70 / 100) • 19 user reviews): "JVC sent over the PICSIO GC-WP10 along with its non-waterproof sibling the GC-FM2...Both models slip in under the $200 mark, with the WP10 getting a $199.95 MRSP and the FM2 just $179.99...The problem is, most modern smartphones – certainly those capable of 720p HD – are able to match the stills and footage produced by the PICSIO pair..."

Reviews for this Veho camcorder (14 user reviews): "The video quality is what they claim it to be, very good...The audio I found was good enough to hear your phone conversations fairly clear (blue tooth or speaker phone) as well as anything on the radio or near your car with the window down...Recommend purchasing the 32gig card - it's worth the extra 20 bucks to have hours of more recording time..."

Reviews for this GE camcorder (10 expert reviews (rating 50 / 100) • 108 user reviews): "The GE DV1 Pocket Video Camera is small, inexpensive, and water- and shockproof....The DV1 captures motion poorly, is slightly confusing to use, has no video editing/sharing software,...The GE DV1 rugged minicamcorder is waterproof to 16 feet, shockproof to 5 feet, and dustproof...Regardless of resolution, the video just isn't very good for several reasons...So if all you need is an inexpensive minicamcorder to keep poolside or for a short trip to a beach..."
