Digital camera reviews of Creative Labs Vado HD 4GB Pocket Video Camcorder 2nd Generation (Black Gloss)

Digital camera Review: Awesome Price for this HD Camcorder
Summary: 4 Stars

The Vado 2nd generation HD camcorder is very competitive in quality with the Flip, RCA EZ, and Kodak series digital camcorders. Below are the pros and cons.
Pros: At this Amazon price, the Vado costs far less than the comparative competitors, the Vado wider screen videos encompass more background objects than the other brands, the overall video HD quality is very good, it is very easy to use,and has replaceable batteries.
Cons: Built in is 4 gig of storage and there is no card slot to add more memory, it records sound in mono rather than stereo,included software is pretty basic, no image stabilization function.
* Important note: I recommend the 2nd generation Vado over the 3rd generation Vado. Although the 3rd generation records in stereo and has 8 gig built in memory vs the 2nd generation's 4 gig, comparison video tests show that the 2nd generation's video quality is much better. Unknown why Creative Labs was unable to keep the video quality the same.
Summary: For the price and video quality, difficult to beat this camcorder.
I prefer the flat matte finish over the glossy finish (both are available) to eliminate the finger print issue.
