your report only include the basic features and then there is a “buy it now”, but any link that we can get the preformance test / comparison of the other same price brand? Note that cheap is not equal worth buying, our user concerned quality level usually as below: picture colour / contrast quality, w and w/o flash? flash effective distant? picture / video noise vs various light / zoom condition? aperture change speed to different light? time to start taking picture from idle? how is battery time when in standby mode? white balance? zooming speed / focus speed during picture taking? multiple picture mode speed and avail resolution? playback picture magnitfication size and browsing speed? capture still picture during playback?
let me help answer your questions Eric as I have owned this product. The Mag Pix 1080p camera is ridiculously bad. The lens is so horrible it doesn’t matter what resolution you are recording in, and I’m surprised that a brand the professes to “think geek,” and that has been around for so long, would be willing to sell it
It truly is a terrible product. You can get magnitudes better quality out of your typical point and shoot digital camera video mode and save yourself fifty to seventy dollars. Might I recommend the GoPro HD Hero?
