Summary: Excellent Picture, BATTERY LIFE, and easy to use
Review: ..... Anyway, took this camera .... on a Disney cruise and impressed by the ease of use, wicked optical zoom, and awesome battery life (used the camera for 4 days (even for playback to watch the 30minute tape twice) and still able to video tape with no recharge.The things I did not like about the camera are: 1) placement of fade button, and fact that I have to hold the fade, then stop recording (old Minolta 8mm used to fade when I stopped recording if fade on). Fade button only accessible with screen open, so if taping using eyepiece in bright outdoor light, then have to open screen (shaking camera of course) to get to fade. 2) Either have to display date on tape all the time, or not record it on tape at all. Old camera used to have auto date time option that displayed the date and time for about 5 seconds on first recording of the day, and wouldn't display it again until day changed. Not so with this as far as I can figure. 3) Eyepiece view kind of small. Have to use this in really bright sun when you can't see the LCD screen. This is discontinued and you can get it now for $$$ if you can find it. I'm going to purchase the SCL-860 because it is same camera but newer version with image stabilization, photo mode, and remote control for $$$ ....

Summary: Can't beat it for the price!!!!!!
Review: I have a baby on the way and decided to grab a camcorder spur of the moment so that I can have all those cute baby moments recorded! I didn't have much cash on hand, so I was was pretty skeptical about buying this -- I figured I would buy it and return it within a week.... But, I absolutely love it! I haven't had a single problem! There are a bunch of different features and it's very simple to set up and use!!! Great camcorder for the money! Can't beat it!

Summary: Good Value for Money
Review: I purchased this Cam for gift to a person in a PAL format country. There is no way of testing it in US. This is frustrating. However the Cam looks great except the USB port feature that I found missing but this is great for the money. For myself I have a Sony for 1000 bucks with digital camera. But if I just compare the Cam....Samsung has far more features for the price. Great camera...Hope it works great.

Summary: Great Budget Camcorder
Review: I wanted to record all the new things my 7 month old son is doing. I'm also broke. I need a good camcorder without spending a fortune. I looked into eBay and even used camcorders. When I read all the good reviews about this product, I thought I'll give it a shot. With the first use, our family fell in love with it. For the price, you can't beat this deal. The picture quality is a whole lot better than what I expected. This is my 4th Samsung purchase and everyone so far has been a very positive experience. I wish this camcorder has some "advanced features" like USB connectivity so that I can download movie clips to a computer. But then again, I didn't have the extra [money] to spend. In couple years, I plan to buy a digital camcorder but for now this will suffice. Bottom line: For 1st time buyers, this is a good start. It's not the best camcorder but definately a good one. It's worth the money.

Summary: Good for begginers
Review: I was looking for a good camcorder for beginers. This one is perfect. It is not the best camcorder, but a very good one. I gave it 5 stars because the price is cheaper than it should be.It is worth much more than it is.

Summary: Just fits by budget
Review: It was the right match for me for price-features balanced.
I brough this to use it in India, the AC datapter can take in 230v/60hz and thats wonderful. The PAL feature is the one i was looking for. Its smal land compact and that makes this very handy. The Title feature provided , were you can select a title for your recodings from the list.
Overall this was the best price i could get.
May be two years from now, i m planning to dispose this and buy MiniDV which would cost much less than what it is now. so Untill then..SCL700 is all that i can envy about.

Summary: Awkward controls, below-par reliability
Review: Like Korean cars, this Korean camcorder does what it says, but it's not something you'll be proud to own. The controls are awkward... even Sony's compact minidv camcorders have better buttons. The video quality is sub par, and my unit, which I received as a factory-sealed gift, broke after about 6 months, a first for all the Asian electronics I have owned. For a little bit more money, you can buy much better camcorders from Japanese manufacturers.

Summary: Nice Camera
Review: My Fiance bought me this camera for christmas and so far I love it. We couldn't pay the prices of the nice DV cameras and didn't want to go with a low-end DV camera. This is a great starter camera and I'm sure will last me until I have a better job and can afford a nice DV camera. The design is intuitive and the camera runs really quiet (that seems to be a problem w/ other cameras). I'd reccomend this camera to anyone who is getting into video. You can always get a video capture card for your PC and digitize your video anyway!! :)
