Works wonderfully!!!
| Everything described for this camcorder was well-explained in detail. There wasn't a thing I was displeased with when I received the product. I've used it several times, and I am very satisfied with this choice. It's a must-buy for those seeking an affordable, but very modernized camcorder. |

DZ-BX35A cons
I am not impressed with picture quality as the picture quality is not as detailed/clear as the mini-dv camera I had been using simply because this is a compressed MPEG format verses the AVI on the mini-DV cameras. The advertising boasts of the abity to shoot video in the 16.9 wide screen format but you do not find out untill later that this option is only available in the 30 minute record mode and not the 60 minute mode. Then there is the issue that you can only finalize a disk and do repair file recovery ONLY while the camera is operating on AC. I had planned on shooting a dvd out in the field where there is no AC and being able to complete a disc without finding an AC outlet before completing the task. The standard battery that comes with the camera that I bought is good for about 30 minutes of normal recording and is a drawback, so get the larger amperage battery if you want to use the camera for the 60 minute low resolution record mode.
