Works great except in low light. I am pretty happy with this camera. It works will outdoors. Indoor/low light is not that great. Then again, I was looking for the smallest camera with a 22x zoom. No regrets.

Last night we decided to rewind some of the more "recent" (taken in the last 6 months) tapes, and 4 out of 4 tapes we tried to rewind would get stuck in the middle of the rewind and the tape would get mangled up. Now I... more info
