Answers: I enjoy the camcorder, and I can say it's extraordinarily good for it's price. It does own nice video. I can say seriously about it, but a video is worth a thousand words, so here's a taster:

The video is very upright in daylight. It is correct in indoor pallid. It is starts to show graininess in outstandingly low light, but it isn't a huge issue because it's so fine.
The just problem with the camera is the audio - it is mono, and not the best sounding. The mic is too sensitive, so it picks up profusely of noise. Not horrible, but not superb. If you're the DIY type, however, it's really confident to solder on a microphone line surrounded by port. Just google it.
Good luck. (and search aiptek a-hd on vimeo for more sample - their the closest to actual quality).
