Outdoors video is good, indoors does not work too well. I used it at a cousin´s wedding and the audio was blown up when dancing music was played.

Comments about Pro Gear Series DXG-5F0VR HD Camcorder (Red):
The camera itself was easy to use and output a decent product, the problem arose when I tried to output the SD card information onto my Final Cut Pro editing software. After several days and calls to both Apple and DXG (whose solutions did not work), I finally found a converter on the internet that would recognize my files. It cost me another $35 to get it done, so my savings on the camera were no longer there.

Comments about Pro Gear Series DXG-5F0VR HD Camcorder (Red):
This camcorder does everything as described. Some features left out in the description worth noting: it features a light on the front that can be used for pictures or video in low light situations and has a built-in 2 channel stereo microphone. Video quality is very good for the price range, but of course not up to the quality standards of a broadcast HD camera. Also, the optical zoom is not the best, but works well for short to mid range distances.

I think this camcorder offers great value for money. Picture quality is amazing and the sound is great too. It's very easy to use, I mostly use it outdoors and for family events. Battery life could be better though.
