Sound is bad
2008-09-16I bought this for sale and thank god! I sing and this is a horrible camera for me. Maybe it's okay in the daylight with crappy sound quality but that's about it. Crap.

crappy but cheap
2008-07-20i bought this camera for 40 dollars from a friend
i thought i was getting a great deal
this camera is ok for taking videos of stuff thats not moving but if you want to take a picture of anything faster than a snail your out of luck
i tried to use this camera to make a biking movie with my friends but none of the footage was even usable
the night vision is a joke
basically this camera is for a babies first steps sorta thing not teenagers trying stunts
there are many better cameras for the price

HORRIBLE
2008-05-24Whoever says this camera has good video/photo quality really has to have their eyes checked.
This is by far the worst camera I've ever laid hands on. Shame on Polaroid for putting their name on a piece of junk like this.
Not even my 8 year old wants it, that's how bad it is.
Do not believe anyone on here who says this is a pretty good or pretty decent camera, it's just not true.
My Panasonic DMC-TZ1 camera takes better videos then this with more detailed quality.
If you don't believe me go ahead and try this Polaroid joke. I bet you will regret buying it.
As for me, I'm getting rid of mine as soon as possible.
Hope this review helps anyone who really wants a "TRUE" review.

Basic video
2008-03-10This is a good basic video camera. Some problems I found are the resolution is no better than a digital camera and it can't use SD cards larger than 2Gb. This limits you to 15-20 minutes of video with an SD card. Internal memory is good for only 20 seconds of video.
I bought this with a 4Gb SD card. The camera tries to start but then just shuts down with no indication of what the problem is. I put the 4GB SD card into my Kodak EasyShare camera and it works fine. I used the 2Gb from my Kodak camera in the Polaroid and everything works. The video from the Kodak EasyShare is just as good, works better in low light and it supports larger SD cards for longer videos.
Last problem, the tripod mount is very shallow. You'll need several washers between the tripod and the camera.

Don't waste your money
2008-01-09What a disappointment! 20 seconds of video on the internal memory. The Flip video gets an hour! We bought a 1g memory card for 20 minutes of video. But the darn camera turns off if the memory card is inside!! Totally useless and I can't return it because I bought it in Sept for a Christmas present and the return time is over. Polaroid should be ashamed.
