Video Camera Camcorder for YouTube CofunKool Full HD 1080P Vlogging Digital Camera 24.0MP Night Vision 16X Digital Zoom with External Microphone Wide Angle Lens

This camera is awesome! I used to always have a nice camcorder, but haven't really been buying them in the last few years since phone cameras got so good. What really sold me on this was the accessories it comes with.The microphone is not only really useful, it looks really cool as well haha. It makes the sound quality clear as day, and does an excellent job of filtering out unwanted back-round noise like wind. The best part about it though is how it attaches. Usually this is where a product fails first, but it is top notch on this camera. There is a small slot on the camcorder you slide a piece of the microphone into, and screw a wheel downwards to lock it in place. As long as you don't screw it too tight I don't see it breaking any time soon.I was skeptical of how well the side angle and macro lenses would work, and I was pleasantly surprised. The wide angle lens increases the field of view by almost 50% at least, without sacrificing and image quality. The macro lens was even more impressive, if you need to be taking pictures/video up close this is 100% the camera for you. I also really appreciate how it comes with lens covers for both sides of the extra lens set.The night vision blew me away. I've had camcorders with "night vision" before, but they never really worked all that well. This works as well as my professional grade night vision goggles! I have only tried it in my back yard so far, but can confirm it'll work out to about 80 feet no problem.I have a bad habit of trying to figure things out without using the user manual, and it was surprisingly easy with this camcorder. The only thing that threw of off a little was now to access the icons on the screen, I was looking for some sort of toggle switch, until I realized it was touchscreen. This was a cool little surprise haha. I do wish it came with a case that held the microphone and wide angle/macro lenses as well as the camcorder, but thats not the end of the world. The case for the camcorder is still good. Overall this is a great product for an incredible price. I am going to be getting another for my mother for Christmas!

I honestly didn't expect to get a great picture out of this for the price I was paying. I just needed a night vision web cam. It certainly delivered that promise... though, I'm not sure they intended it to be used that way. There is a minor problem with the picture quality though. (See bottom of review)For those of you wondering if you can get this to be a night vision web cam, you absolutely can, but theres a trick.When you change to web cam mode, all controls on the camera are disabled, and if it was in night vision mode before boot, it changes to regular light mode. You can trick the camera into letting you stream night vision mode by operating it in normal (non web-cam. Not connected to the computer) mode. Switch it to night vision, then plug the USB wire into the back and switch to web cam mode. It is at this point that I think they forgot to program it so that the IR filter went back over the lens. So the thing remains in night mode.As for the only major complaint I have... the picture quality in a lit room has some serious picture saturation issues. I'm no camera expert but there are no settings packed into the cam that let you fix this. You just have to adjust it in post (or in the case of web cam streaming, use third party software). If its night time, and you have the cam pointing in a room that is lit with a normal floor lamp or something, the colors are so so so so saturated. Caucasian skin appears much more orange than you'll probably want it to. Daylight shoots might be better, but as I haven't used it much while the sun was out, I cannot confirm this for sure.Also, don't use the packed in tri-pod unless you're desperate.

Bought this camera based on another reviewer that posted a video. So that review was helpful. The construction and build quality of the unit is quite good. each part opens, closes and seals nicely. its a small and light camera which I like. but it doesn't feel fragile, though i wouldn't let my toddler play with it of course. :) I like that it came with two batteries and especially two extra lenses a macro lens as well as a wide-angle lens. the lens that came with it seems to be of good quality and did say it was "made in japan" so i'm hoping it will last for a bit. I like the wide angle lens combination on this camera. the other accessories and cables are standard quality and could not find anything to complain about. the remote control that came with it is a bit flimsy but it works so thats good.Now something about the quality of videos, i'm not a professional photographer/videographer but everyone can tell if a video is good or not. to me the quality is acceptable at the highest setting 1080P. i had set it to 720 and felt that it was not that good so i kept the setting at the highest. the controls are ok and you can navigate using the flip screen by tapping on the icons. now if you have big fingers it might be a bit troublesome but it can be done or use the external controls to navigate the menus. don't forget to get the SD card, I got 32gb and it says at 1080P that it could take about 5 hours of footage.I'm planing to use this for documenting my garage build that is happening this year once the weather starts to get warmer and I think it will serve the purpose well. I wasn't looking for anything high end and this item is a great deal for me since it had the extra lenses and accessories. So far, i'm happy with the purchase. I will update this review as I use this camera and if ever i encounter any issues that may help someone moving forward.
