QuickTake:

Pros: Very sharp movies
Cons: Camera is very small

Definitely a "handy" camera as far as being easy to handle and getting a nice, clear picture, but the flaws make it NOT a good value for the money.

Pros: compact; lightweight; clear images; larger viewscreen
Cons: Mainly the price is too high; recording picks up noise
