Best Aiptek Camcorder

This was shot free hand without a tripod. This was shot inside of our dorm room where the lighting isn’t the best for video, so that will hopefully give you an idea of how the camera performs under low light conditions. When I was video taping the guitar I turned the light on, which works very well at close distances (but what do you expect?). I do like the sound from the camera, I think it comes out nicely.

I know they aren’t exactly top-notch programs, but it’s what I have, and this will not work with them. The videos will produce in Showbiz, but there’s no sound. The same kind of thing with the included software: the video will produce, but the actual video will lag behind the sound (as in they don’t match up). I’m sure there’s a way to fix it, but I want something a little bit more reliable. They recommend at least a 2.8 GHz processor, so that might be the problem (mine is a 2.2 GHz). In all, great camera for SINGLE SHOT videos. If you’re an amateur looking to edit videos, you might want to find a different camera. The HD is probably the kicker for the whole thing. But don’t let the whole HD factor get you, there are plenty of cameras out there that can take excellent looking videos that will probably look just as good as this camera’s video in the long run.
