kimire Video Camera Camcorder Digital Camera Recorder Full HD 1080P 15FPS 24MP 3.0 Inch 270 Degree Rotation LCD 16X Digital Zoom Camcorder Camera with 2 Batteries(Black)

Needed a cheap video camera to record home movies. This one has good picture quality and autofocus. It’s nice and compact and I like that it comes with 2 battery packs. Very user friendly.

Ok, been a few months and too many YT videos. Mostly ranch-related, wildlife to indoor stuff but also hack film projects. Very happy with performance; works well; above-average accessories (xtra battery; cords, etc.) I film way too much stuff but in a filmable area to put it lightly so carried on hikes, in garden, around farm; good and compact and ok after inevitable drop or two. (Results may vary on latter!) Gripes. Most perhaps "git off my lawn" old man stuff: G1: The main "Start recording/stop" most popular button is a good size but, me at least, never have an easy time with it. Doesn't seem to respond each time or must push harder than you'd think, thus fumbling with the compact size and always accidentally touching other buttons (that don't trigger anything but still). May be me. Adult male but Nosferatu hands (say what?). G2. The "night mode" night vision seems no different than reg and pretty useless beyond very close things that may be illuminated by the 3 tiny little lights that then come on. The cheaper one this replaced had amazing NV; got to read fine print on that. Note: all this general hobby; no big deals. So bought an "average" Amazon camcorder; not cheapest but dang close. This was discounted so another "step up" but not much. Seems better quality than last but prefer old one, no offense to this perfectly-functional one. G3. "Dang, Ethel! You'd expect the nifty case provided to FIT the dang thing!" Ok, it DOES but not with the battery that extends its length enough so it won't fit in the case. BUT (git off my ... oh. did that) after I stubbornly jammed it in a few times, it stretched out. So like a new sock perhaps that needs a little pull. Moot in practice as I usually want if available faster so just put in a pocket. NOTE: NOTHING NEGATIVE to it's reason for existence. Good value. Working great and happy with it. I know there are different forms of NV, few really the tech version so perhaps this just has a closeup or diff version I did not clue into and/or some control combo also missed. IT WORKS WELL FOR PRICE. Rest pretty good. I wish the port for the memory card allowed a little more room to grab the damn thing but that's standard with all devices now (git off my lawn!). Pics are screenshots so cam's results may be better vs what shows up here. I like the options of a super HD, reg HD and VGA.

I bought this not expecting a super high quality camera. The footage is crispy - juuust the way I wanted it. I like that almost vintage-y, crispness in video footage. The sound quality? Yiiiiikes....I recommend getting a separate mic. There's an option to hook up a separate mic. I haven't bothered yet but prob will soon. The cam can't handle loud noises at all. If you're speaking, don't get close to the camera itself. It sounds bad LOL! But I don't realllyyy care, since I can always just digitally adjust that once I export the videos. The camera is super lightweight, easy to figure out, and can take pictures as well. Very easy to use. Easy to export videos too! I'm still gunna keep it and use it. Durability? Not sure yet, I'm pretty careful with it. It doesn't seem like it'll break, I took it skiing with me and it was fine whenever I fell. Anywho if you're looking for a cheap camera for a crispy footage look , this is the cam for that job! Don't expect a Sony-quality device lol.

I didn't have high expectations for this little camera, but wow! Works great, easy to use (even my technologically challenged husband likes it!)

I purchases this camera for making online videos. I made a mistake! The camera looks good out of box. it looks like a good design other than being able to operate it. The Owners Manual is poor at best. Gives no instruction on actual operations. It does tell you the names of each button and functionality. It does NOT give step by step instructions how to go from one viewing menu screen to another. It does NOT tell you how to make videos last for more that 13 minutes 23 seconds. The camera does NOT indicate that your video has maxed out and has started A NEW VIDEO in the middle of filming! gives no instructional video for use. Seller/designer/manufacturer should assume purchaser IS NOT FAMILIAR WITH THEIR PRODUCT before selling it. The manual is very small, points out button names and very basic functions using jargon that the non-film-pro may or may not understand. The manual itself fits in one hand, about as thick as a napkin, is 18 pages, black & white pictures to describe color screens. pictures are dark and unreadable. What they should have provided was a step by step instruction for set-up and actual applications for making a video and for photos. I have not been able to figure out the photo setting, so I don't know if that works or not. The videos that I have made are clear. The mic does not pick up unless you are within 3 or 4 feet of the camera. So, if you are good with 13 minute films, you will need to buy a microphone with the appropriate attachment. Amazon does sell them. I wish I bought a different camera. Its just really difficult to use because of these circumstance. I have no idea how to properly operate or adjust the films. I cannot find a source for instructions online. YouTube was also no help.

Just to give some background, I was looking for an inexpensive video to do vlogging type stuff and take some videos with my dog. I don't have much experience with more expensive camcorders or what kind of technology and features you can expect if you paid 150 200 dollars, but TL;DR this is neat for the price and gives you a compact HD picture that is pretty good and it is cool that it has the video screen and an extra battery. The menus are fairly easy to figure out after a couple of minutes of poking around. So anyways my criticisms, you have to buy an SD card which is not that big of a deal but you want to be aware of it before you start to use it. Apparently it only holds up to 32gb which is not that big especially with how fast video file sizes add up, so it's probably better to make small clips and not expect to make a huge 2 hours video. With that being said I don't know about how other cameras and their storage work so it might not be too bad. The USB technology seems kind of old but also it charges the battery pretty good so not really any complaints. I was not expecting USB C connections or anything for the price. I have not used it as a webcam, but you will probably want to get an inexpensive tripod to do that which is more extra money you have to add on depending on the reasons you bought it to begin with. My major complaints and the reason for the 3 stars is it consistently freezes on me and I have to reset it. It might be because the battery connection comes apart for a second or just because the software quality, but it may be an issue you have that costs you when trying to record at the perfect moment. Also, the sound quality / microphone is pretty bad. One annoying thing is when pressing the zoom buttons on the top you hear it on the video very loudly so you will definitely want to edit the final product or have your zoom level figured out before you start recording. Also because it is so small I found it more difficult to keep it steady and smaller movements show up more. Anyways I still recommend it but if you need more than the bare minimum to record videos there are probably way better options for 50-100 dollars more.

I got this for my 6 year old who always wants to use my phone to take photos/videos. It was his favorite Christmas gift! It is easy enough for him to work on his own and has been taking so many home videos. It’s a great price so we won’t be super bummed if he loses it or breaks it.

Does anyone know which charger cord works best for this camera? i lost mine and haven’t been able to find a replacement😭
