Pros: Digital is better!
Cons: Battery performance :P
I bought this camera mainly because I wanted to jump in the digital bandwagon, from Full Size VHS to Digital 8 is a leap towards the double of quality.
The first time I used it, I noted how lightweight it is compared with Panasonic's Compact VHS solutions. And then I enjoyed the screen which is nice and sharp, a bit small but enough for me. I like the bw viewfinder because you can always adjust the exposition perfectly so your recordings are not going to have lots of gain noise.
I love: manual focus, manual exposition, digital recording, IEEE 1394 connectivity for editing, Analog-2-Digital conversion on the fly of any video source, the microphone is sweet, tapes are inexpensive, lens and CCD are okay for a consumer camera.
You should buy this if you want to edit your tapes using a computer with a Firewire card!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT ROCKS!
