Customer Feedback

Overall video capability of the TG1 is pretty good. The most appealing and useful feature is the ultra portability. Also the startup time is very short. With the compact size, fast startup time and easy to use design you will end up using this camera at many places/occasions and more often than the bulky ones.

CONS : Grainy pictures, noise in low light, no remote control, poor Photo Mode.
