I bought this inexpensive camera from the Photojojo.com web site. The site is fun to browse for video techies like me. For the price, this is a great camera. So far the pros are price, ease of use and price. Cons: no view finder/monitor to preview your shot. No 16:9 ratio? And is it really HD? Not to my standards but hey...at $149 bucks it's worth it.
