Terrible Experience

Comments:
I would seriously rethink purchasing this camera, or any from Canon. There is a huge tape transfer problem with Canon Digital Camcorders. Bottom line is that a growing number of them have stopped working after only 7-10 hours of recording - usually just a

Disappointed in features, Happy with size, telephoto lens

I didn't have time to research before my trip, but wanted a small, cheap camcorder with digital camera feature to fit in my purse. I guess you get what you pay for. IF you like to use your tapes to capture photos of movement< this one jumps ahead instead

DON'T BUY - awful quality and worse service
, Jan. 2, 2004
Comments:
On the third time I used my brand new Elura, it started malfunctioning - the DV tape drive would die. Since then I've sent it to Canon Service Headquarters twice - the unit works a couple of times then breaks again. If you haven't dealt with Canon Factory

I purchased the camera before our vacation and had to replace it only after two days of use. The camera has had only limited use and is no longer working. Fortunately I purchased the extended warranty. Best Buy tells me the camera can not be repaired.
