Sharp VLAH150 3" Hi8 Screen ViewCam Camcorder Reviews
The only complaints I have are that (1) it doesn't connect to the computer in any way, and there are no longer products out that will convert the RCA cables into a USB input. Other than that, it's a wonderful camera, and I absolutely love it. I managed to find one at Fry's for about $30, but it's still NiMH and I would like to find a lithium-ion so we don't have this problem again. I have had this camera for approximately 4-1/2 years now, and it's still a good product. From Sharp directly it's a $50 battery. (2) The battery will not hold any type of charge whatsoever anymore - I have to plug the camera into a wall to be able to use it, and replacement batteries are near impossible to find at ridiculous prices.
I wanted a reliable, simple to use, high quality camcorder at a good price and the Sharp VLAH150 so far has met all my criteria. You can't go wrong buying this camcorder.
Letterbox recording, black and white, sepia, strobe, photo shot, pic-in-pic, awesome zoom. Buttons scare the average person. You can't beat it for the price (.). All this and lots more.
This model is very simple and gives new meaning to 'point and shoot'. My wife and I looked at many camcorders and she instantly liked this one. I asked her why and she said the design(non-flip 3" screen) and the main reason was that there wasn't a million buttons all over it. Once we started using it she told me thats why she would not use our old one.
Personally I like lots of features and boy, does this camera have features.
At first, I missed my old camcorder, but now I love this one. I love the photo shot effect, as well as the fact that I can shoot in black and white. I guess I was used to my older one, even more so than I thought. This is my second camcorder, and it did take some getting used to. Once I played around with this camcorder for a couple hours I got the hang of it and started to really enjoy it.
The image in the camcorder is OK for the price point and image shakes violently in digital zoom mode if you are zooming in too much. The only problem I have is that it doesnot connect to the computer. Great zoom features and the camera is light and Easy to use and has great features such as 16x optical zoom and 400x digital zoom.
