"If you bought it listen very carefully while watching you recorded videos... Voice of autofocus mechanism obviously recorded to the video on my camcorder. I took it back and changed the camcorder with a new one. I thougt the problem was solved. I watched my new records and heard the voice of focusing mechanism again. Not obviously as the first cam but it was there again. So try it before buying. Record a video and watch it with your ear close to speaker."

"I am only happy to use it with 640*480 resolution. Other resolutions are not so good. Especially at low light. And I understand that MP4 format really hard to use. You can download all codecs and software to use it on your PC.. But what about if you want to view on another PC. You have to convert all that video to Avi or other formats to use the videos at all means. It is really a time waste.. I prefer to load the file and use it on all kind of editing and viewing software.. It is impossible with sanyo HD1000.. On the other hand, it is really a cute gadget to carry for daily use. It is very fast and has user friendly menus. But as I said when it comes to production stage it sucks.."
