Summary: Motor noise problem
Comment: I bought this camera thinking it was a great valu for the price, but when you record anything (interior and exterior) you are recording all the motor noise from the camera's mechanical system.
I try to reduce the noise by editing, with pinnacle, and that work if nobody is speaking.
The image quality is good, the camera look great and is tiny, you can carry it very easy.
I don't recommend this camcorder, spend a few bucks more and get another brand

Summary: Great for what I needed it do do
Comment: I am not an expert at using a camcorder by any stretch of the imagination so I approached this product's mass of settings and controls with somewhat wary an approach. A family vacation up to New York and Canada earlier this year gave me the opportunity to put it through its paces and it passed with flying colors. I also was able to hook it up to my DVD recorder with a firewire cable (not included) and transfer it easily onto regular DVD. One thing that surprised me (given the reviews here concerning lighting) is that my camcorder works great in poor lighting. Watching it with my travel companions as I transferred the home video to DVD they remarked that the shots at an aquarium were brighter than they had been to the naked eye and brought out more detail. One troubling detail about the camera is that it needs to be hooked up to recharge the battery (which itself lasts about an hour). However I bought a TechFuel Premium Advanced Desktop Battery Charger as well as more powerful batteries by TechFuel (both given as accessories on the Amazon product page) and they work great.

Summary: Couldnt find a better deal; $100 dollars off!
Comment: I did some research before buying this from Amazon. I found it at my local Circuit City for 100 dollars more then I paid for it! That convinced me to buy it; its not HD but it is digital so thats pretty nice. It records on convenient tapes and also can put it straight to a DVD with my Toshiba D410 DVD recorder. Battery life on it can be better, but thats to be expected of the stock battery. When I really want to use it for a long time I will get a longer lasting battery. Great camera for what I need to use it for; just recording family memories and vacations all for under 150 bucks! Amazon was great in getting it to me too, fast and everything was in order I had it running within 5 minutes of unpacking it. Love it.

Summary: Great!! (If you have good lighting)
Comment: The good: The samsung SC-D372 is a great camcorder under the right light conditions. If you film during a bright day on the beach or park, you'll enjoy great high quality video, widescreen, image stabilization, great sound, and excellent zooming. Very good for recording "open field" sports games, such as baseball and football (during the day).The battery lasts around 80 minutes, unless you rewind. Rewinding it lasts 10 minutes.
The Bad!!: When the lights are low, the cam pretty much sucks. The image is grainy and blurry. Its so blurry you can't recognize anything around. You can only transfer your videos to your computer, if you have the right video card; or converting it to dvd with a dvd recorder.
