Aiptek A-HD 720p

My Opinion / Review:
**Highly Recommended**
I looked at a lot of other cameras I took most out of the picture from feature by feature comparisons verses price. Name means a little, but not enough to warrant a $500.00 to $1,000.00 increase in price. Hit a site like CircuitCity and do a side by side features on them, this camera does a lot they won't (Other than drain your wallet). I would suggest this camera to anyone who wants a good camera and a good price to boot, the negative things are picky things that I don't like and most would never notice.
NOTE: Some have stated that the .H264 has a problem with fast movement, and I recorded some races at the speedway down here and I didn't have a problem at all. I did notice some problems on a second computer (Cheaper video card and older quicktime) but they were not on my main computer so maybe it is the computers codecs?

Things I like:
Price, paying 129.00 or even a list 169.00 for this (a HD 16:9 camera is a great deal) when you look at the price of a Sanyo, Sony, etc. at 600.00 or 1,000.00 for the same basic camera it is CRAZY!
Flash Strobe, this is a real flash tube strobe; that means SUPER bright.
Every feature works just as described (most I will never use even, but they are there!)
Night shot / Low Light - try getting that in a HD Camera for less than 1,000.00 bucks. I'm not sure how low it will go, but I have filmed some pretty dark scenes without a problem.

NEUTRAL Things:
Flash Strobe Recharge. Ok, I got it for the fact it has a real flash on it, so I know there is a recharge time involved, but some may not like that delay.
Image Stabilization - I personally do NOT like these features as they tend to blur or sheer the video, some may want this though.
No MPG-X mode. I find no problem in this but some may want an MPG-X encoder.

Things I DO NOT like:
Flash location; Ok, I constantly put my fingers in front of it (I have large hands, and this thing is small - and I know, stop doing that dummy!)
Shape, the shape tends to cause me to misaim the camera.
Memory card location, you have to open the side to remove the card.
Won't auto-power on when you plug in a USB cable.
Video record button, just hard to hit.
Camera button is also hard to hit (for me).
The 2x Digital Zoom (just worthless overall)
