is there any problem with the video or audio with this camcorder?

The video is not bad... sometimes a little choppy...definetly not hd... but for an inexpensive camcorder that uses plain old batteries... not bad for the money...

Video is kind of " shaky" and audio could be a little louder and clearer, but overall for an inexpensive camera it is ok. This is the 2nd one I have used so I am satisfied /w it.

It depends. If you keep the video on the whole time, the battery will drain quickly. Try Turing the video off and see if that helps. If not, then yes, that might be a defective unit.

Barbara, unless someone else answers this question before I get home, I'll pull it out and see, but I certainly don't remember having to do anything. I have several camcorders, and I remember that one did not play sound back through the camcorder but did when moving it to DVD, etc., but don't remember if it was this one. I'll update when I get home. Just wanted to let you know that someone was checking into this for you! Edit: My wife tells me we no longer have this camcorder (we originally purchased it in 2007!) Sorry I couldn't help!

No the picture or video quality will be fine, I had no problem with my photos, it clear and perfect

Not sure how that would help. It is not an issue of video quality. The problem is the zoom function stopped working. The zoom did work for two days, then quit working.

I have a question, I just picked out this camcorder as a Christmas present. My family just purchased it for me. I will be using it for my Senior Project Documentary (Needed to graduate college). I have a new Macbook Pro and will be editing on Final Cut Express 09. Does anyone know how the video quality will be with that? Also, will I have any compatibility issues? Lastly, how is the audio on this? I was going to invest into the external microphone. Has anyone had any issues with audio thus far? Thanks.

No, I do not have a problem but I only bought it recently. I've been perfectly satisfied with it. We also use Olympus cameras for our office. We've never had a problem.

In a word Yes. I only ever shot one video just to see how it worked and the sound seemed weak. Never played on my computer though but did read that others had your same experience as you. Battery saving feature??

I do not have a camcorder so I can not answer truthfully. I have used my unit several times with out any problem. Would recommend this unit to anyone. You might check with your camera manual or a camera store. Sorry I could not be more help.

WE had no trouble with the video part but I like the other answer it sounds like what my laptop did automatically. Are you plugged in all the way? I don't remember if the directions came with a trouble shoot section. We had to do the sound check twice before the sound worked. does Kinobo have their own web site? Good luck

The motorized sounds you are getting are not normal in my experience. I have no sounds from the unit during video and no sounds out of the ordinary during normal everyday use. I would look into a return/swap out for another camera.

Thanks again david.I remember reading some of the flash based camcorders record on .MOD files, which are somewhat hard to work with.This will be my first camcorder purchase in a long while (my last was a sony digital-8...), so your advice is well needed and appreciated.

I did not seem to have any issues with the camera or other functions. My only issue was the sound quality. For some reason it interfered with talking.

I have the same camcorder. Download a trial version of the software from sony's website. It would well with it.

So far it hasn't given me any trouble just make sure that you record using the Logitech Capture software that comes with the device. It's the only way I've found to get decent quality, using Movie Maker just wont cut it.

I received both the camcorder and the DVD burner from DBROTH with no problems. I too prefer the burner instead of the HD, since I would have to re-record from the HD once again at a later time.
