Good video quality, Focusing problems As with other reviewers said about this camcorder, there are some focusing problems where it can take up to 10 sec to focus it will only focus if you are extremely close to something other than that pretty good camcorder May 20, 2012

great quality, not perfect I love the size and ease of the bloggie. There is nothing to wonder about. Only a few buttons and controls on the touch pad. The thing I have a problem with is the focus. The camera allows you to take still photos while taking video. The problem with that is the camera has a hard time finding the object to focus on causing blurring. It is obvious on the video where the still photos were taken by the blurring. Other than that I really do like the Bloggie. I will try not to take any stills while shooting video. Worth the money!

More like a mobile camera The quality is similar to photos taken through an ordinary mobile camera. I don't like this product!! December 5, 2011

Good I think it's a good camera,but it doesn't have any editing stuff. It also doesn't have a flash but that's what a regular camera is for. I bought this camera for camp. Oh and the wrist strap isn't very good so don't hold in on your wrist if you go in a rollercoaster. Otherwise I like it. June 12, 2011
