Digital camera reviews of Canon ZR10 Digital Camcorder
Digital camera Review: Achtung
Summary: 1 Stars
Compact, light, user friendly, easy menu, but playback stopped working after 3 hours of filming (showed grey lines) and had to be returned.Digital camera Review: BIG bang for the buck... very small camera.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an absolutely amazing little camera... and boy is it little! The only (minor) complaint I have is video quality in low light. Otherwise, this little camera is perfect for everything a normal person needs a camcorder for. I was using it out of the box in a few seconds (the battery came well charged). It is remarkably sturdy, easy to handle, and has a great selection of features. Add that to what I can do with my iMac and iMovie, and I have everything I need, and then some!Digital camera Review: Bell and whistle dream- with a few flaws
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought mine to replace a 5 year old Sony Hi-8. I was very impressed with the small size, recording quality, and the amount of bells and whistles that came with it. I was a little displeased with the zoom range of the lens. It dose not wide enough and shooting in tight spaces is difficult. It does however zoom to 200 with pretty good quality. Other complants are: *The 2" viewing screen in not brigh enough to be seen clearly in daylight.
*The steady shot feature was barely works at all- If you are the type with shaky hands, this camera is not for you.
*The built in humidity sensor alarm is constantly going off. When this happenes you must shut off the camera, eject the tape and reinsert/ restart. This process takes nearly a minute and has caused me to miss several shots.
Besides the complaits I found it to be a very nice camera with dependable battery life- the supplied manufactures battery has never left me stranded, and cameras small compact size makes it easy to record in forbidon places- like rollercoasters.
Digital camera Review: Canon ZR10 Appears To Have A Consistent Flaw
Summary: 1 Stars
I have owned a ZR10 since June of 2000, and as others have indicated, it definitely has a problem eating up and failing to eject tapes 2 out of 3 times it is used.This problem began after using the camera for only two or three hours.
I have been a high school media production teacher for 10 years and have worked with many Canons... GL-1's, XL-1S, ZR-45s, ZR-20...etc. I have never had a problem with any of them in regards to tape ejections issues.
No matter how good the bells and whistles are or how good the camcorder records the digital image and sound, it is all moot if the tape is ruined.
I agree that Canon owes those of us who bought this camera a free fix or a refund, but I doubt we will ever see it.
Don't buy one...new or used.
