Great Outdoors, low light - not so great, but very portable
Things i love about this camera
- size: it is truly a pocket video cam, i can take it everywhere.
- quick start: i can have it out of my pocket filming in 3 seconds, so you don't miss any shots
- video quality outside is superb, as good as you could ever want (when viewed on my 46" LCD HDTV)
- the dock: you can view directly through the dock and can even view directly from a back up hard drive - so you don't need to burn DVD's to share/store movies
- ability to do both stills and video with one device
Really the only issue i have with this camera is indoor/low light quality: It really is not very good in low light. if you use the settings properly, you can get decent video/pictures in low light, but it isn't HD quality. Disappointing, but not a deal breaker for me, especially considering this is nearly 1/2 the price of full HD cameras (such as the HF100). Don't buy if this is a major concern for you. Even stills suffer in low light (even with the flash). Some have talked of the "perma-zoom" issues, but i don't have any problems with that. I even looked for it and it really isn't an issue for me at all.

Sanyo Camcorder
This Camcorder is not good. it was cheap to buy but you get what you paid for lousy quality. pay $200 more and get the higher model with better quality and more user friendly.

Great Pocket HD Camcorder
I've had this camera for a couple weeks now and I really like it! I was looking for a pocket HD camcorder in the $200-$300 price range, and this was by far the best one I tried. I compared it directly with Flip's new pocket HD camera, the Mino HD, and the HD700 is superior in so many ways.
Head to Head on video quality:
Excellent video quality in ideal lighting situations. The Mino HD had slightly crisper quality, but the white balance on the mino is crippling, causing colors to look VERY unnatural. The HD700 has near flawless colors. Low light is not the strength of either camcorder, but at least you can compensate with the HD700. Manual ISO settings make the video more than passable. Not so with the Mino HD - noise just destroys the video quality and the white balance compensates with oversaturated yellows.
What set's the Sanyo HD apart from the Mino HD:
Besides the picture quality as noted above, the HD700 also offers the following features one should expect on a camcorder priced at $200 and above
-Optical Zoom - 5x (if you think the HD700 has perma zoom, the Mino HD is far worse)
-Image stabalization
-Large swivel LCD screen - 2.7 inches
-Manual features - ISO, White Balance, Focus, exposure and so much more
-Excellent sound quality - I can't begin to tell you how much better the sound is on the HD700 vs. the Mino HD
-Still picture capability
-Can shoot in HD and SD
-Records to SDHC cards (8gig maximum)
-Ergonomic design
-Excellent build quality
-Fits in your pocket
-Video looks fantastic on a large HDTV
Overall, I'm extremely pleased with this camera and glad I made the purchase. This is a quality camcorder at a great price and offers so many great features in a small, pocketable package.

Best Small Video Camera
This is a fabulous camera and I would highly recommend it. It is so tiny and can fit into a pocket with ease. It has a nice large screen and is very easy to use. My only criticism is in the zoom which only really zooms between a few set zoom distances. However, I easily got used to it. It is very easy to use and move files from the camera to the computer.
Nice size, design, functionality and price! All around a great buy!

Sanyo Xacti Hd700
Nice portable video camera,easy to use, just open the flip screen and shoot. Inside video can be on the dark side at times. Used during the holidays with friends and family, seams less intrusive than other video cameras, people were not as aware of me videoing them. Battery life is very good. Originally I saw this product at CES in 2008 and loved it, bought it a year later after price drop on amazon.com
