Cons: Difficult Computer Connectivity, Difficult to use, Limited Software Compatibility
This is not a user-friendly camera. Surprising because I have a Cannon Powershot that I love. With this DC330, I cannot transfer videos to PC and work with them. Initializing and Finalizing works when it wants to. Instructions are not easy to follow. This is a disappointing video camera.

Pros: Compact Design, Easy TV Connectivity, Accurate, Vivid Colors, good battery life, Great sound/audio, Ergonomic/comfortable to hold, easy to use, quick start
Cons: Poor image quality, Difficult Computer Connectivity, Flimsy Construction, Poor Low-Light Performance
The camcorder works well on the fly and is compact. At the zoo, outdoor shots were great but low light conditions were recorded poorly.
Hipes:
Stereo audio is very clear and disc motor noise is minimal.
Discs play in DVD players without the need to transfer to other media.
Quick Start option is great to power up in a pinch.
Gripes:
Recording time is short, especially in best quality with 20 min. on single layer discs.
The widescreen recording is nice and looks professional.
In low light, the video is very grainy.
