Bought this from Amazon in March 2008, used it very lightly until summer 2008, put it in storage until December 2008. When taken out of storage it no longer would power on. Pure Digital said they only warranty for 90 days. Steer clear of this camera, just lightweight junk.

I have owned 2-3 video cameras in my life---from old school vhs to the sony one that records on dvd. Too many wires and or other drama to download the video--NOT enough patience. To top it off, if I am going t spend time shooting anything, I prefer my Nikon DSRL. Basically I like photography best.
However, I saw this product and some things about it got me intrigued: 1) I liked the design style, compactness (just regular old batteries too) and especially the built in usb for connection. 2) Living in a modern world demands owning a video camera too. You never know when you will be unlawfully pulled over or want to shoot footage for TMZ (smile). I wanted a quick way to capture video when a photograph just wont due
Over thanksgiving I filmed my Mom and Pop as they talked about how they met, their kids etc. Camera $150 (very reasonable); DOWNLOAD FOR DUMMIES (very easy and fast); video footage of Mom and Dad---PRICELESS
All thumbs up from me so far. So, go ahead and treat yourself!
