Small, does both video and still pictures. No tapes to buy, is all digital.

VERY poor picture quality on stills, and video. You will be dissappointed.
Small battery life.
Very difficult to upload video to computer.

I am really unhappy with this camera. The video and picture quality is very poor. My old 8mm camera that cost me $100 takes much, much better video. The still pictures are less than 1 megapixel in size at the highest setting. I can't even imagine how bad the quality would be a the lowest setting. Another big problem is how difficuly it is to upload the video to your computer. I've spent many hours already just uploading my first 2 videos, and I haven't even got them on dvd yet. Please save yourself some headaches, and don't buy this camera.
