SEREE Camcorder FHD 1080P 24.0 MP Digital Camera HDMI Cable Included 16× Digital Zoom Handheld Portable Video Recording

Seems like in my family there has been a lot of call for camcorders these days and with the kids being grown up I have not really looked into getting a new one till now. I love this camcorder, love taking video now (I used to hate it) and become the go to person in the family to record events.The camcorder is super small and fits easily into the palm of my hand. It doesn’t feel much heavier than my cell phone so it is not cumbersome to hold and take video with for longer periods of time. Even with the 3 inch touch screen open it is still easy to carry around. Speaking of the touch screen I like the larger design and love the touch screen because I have become dependent on touch screens since all smart phones these days have them.The camcorder can take still photos as well. The camera is 24 mega-pixels so you can zoom in and out with ease. You can even crop and delete the photos directly from the camcorder without the need of a laptop or desktop. The video quality is amazing with vivid color and smooth transition movements when panning the camera or zooming in on subject matter. The video has a 16x digital zoom and you can get so close to what you are recording you will not miss a thing.I also thought that the microphone and speakers are quite strong as well and the best I have ever had in a camcorder.There is a great anti-shake feature which is important to me as my hands do shake quite a bit so this feature makes my video look great. You can use the included remote control to operate the camera if you want to be in the video or is you are using a tripod making you quality of video the best it can be (note they do not include the tripod but they are easy to locate). Everything records to an SD card and this supports a 32GB card so you can remove it and transfer to you computer for easy editing or social media sharing. There is an internal memory however small in capacity of only 128MB.This camcorder also comes with most of the needed accessories such as Charger, Battery, Remote, cables (HDMI, USB and TV), wrist strap, lens cover and the user manual. With the superior quality and ease of use, this is a great camcorder that I am glad I own.

He loves it so far. The only momentary issue we had with it was that it did not fit the tripod that I also purchased for him. Come to find out (from a nice Amazon tech named Nikolaus) I needed an adapter for the tripod which I went on an ordered today. I think SEREE should add the size of the hole for tripods in their description so that when people order, they can get the proper tripod and/or adapter. Can't wait to see the awesome videos he will create.Update 4/18/17: Had to return to get another one. As mentioned before, it would not fit a tripod and was told to purchase an adapter. Purchased the adapter and it was way too big. I tried other tripods and it still wouldn't lock on. I looked at it with a flash light and it looked as if the hole was stripped a bit thus not allowing it to stay stabilized on any tripods. I tried contact Seree directly and even sent a video showing the problem and that was NO help so I just returned it to Amazon. My son really loved it so I am going to try one last time with another one and see if that locks on.Update 4/26/17: Received the replacement camera and it still doesn't lock on any tripod. :( My son seems to still love it so I will let him keep it. If it was up to me, I would have purchased him another camera.

Description clearly stated, "Focus Range: Normal: 1.5m (4.5 feet) ~ infinity Macro: 15 ~ 25cm." (5.90 - 9.84 INCHES). What was not stated was that there are SEPARATE macro and wide angle lenses available for the camera. Sereer Customer Service individual went to great lengths and did a fantastic job patiently explaining the details and provided the lenses I needed, plus made a great instructional video for their use. With the added macro lens the camera focuses beautifully within 2 inches of the subject... perfect for my scientific needs. This is a fantastic camera, simple and straight-forward to use. Optics are good. The additional wide angle and macro lenses vastly increase the camera's functionality. I will be back to buy another Sereer camera, PLUS the additional macro lens, in another couple of months. Thank you so much, Sereer Customer Service, for patiently walking me through the process.

I needed an economical but dependable handheld video camera for my students to use in our drama class. They are making commercials and newscasts as a project. This fills the bill completely. Good battery life, excellent resolution, simple to use (6th, 7th, 8th graders) and lightweight so it doesn't require a tripod unless the shot is to be static. Will buy another next school year when new budget monies are available. A great choice.
