GR-D395 the Noisy cam!

Pros Small and lightweight focus/zoom features lighting options REMOTE!!

Cons This is the only CON, it's extremely loud!

Cons Battery life could be better. Basically useless if you don't also buy a memory card.

Recommended it? Yes

If you want more than this for the same money, I think you're being unreasonably greedy. (NOTE- MOST of the AIPTEK Camcorder models are VERY similar - this review should apply to several of them.)

OK, it doesn't wash dishes or clean the garage. But there doesn't seem to be much more this... Read full review »
