DO NOT BUY THIS CAMCORDER!
This camcorder is unreliable. I purchased one locally (not from Amazon.com), and it failed after I had recorded less than one and a half tapes. Unfortunately, by that time it was out of warranty, so I am stuck with it although it is now useless. Checking online, I discovered that other owners have experienced the same problem. (The camcorder will not record or play tapes because the "eject" signal appears even with new tapes.) After this experience, I would avoid all Samsung products.

samsung sc-d363
Don't buy this camera. And if you own one, like me, don't capture your precious family moments with this camera. The video quality is very bad, with red tones shifted towards the magenta. It is almost imposible to get good focus with the camera, even in manual focus mode. The motors that drive the tape are extremely noisy. All this noise is unfortunatelly captured forever in your recordings. Battery life is also very short. The built-in SD card for tapeless recordings is a hoax; the pictures are worst than the ones captured from the cheapest camera phone, they also have the same problem with the red tones, captured as magentas. The video captured on the SD card, is low quality recording not acceptable for a video camera. Save a few more dollars and go with a better camera. You will get what you paid for with this camera.

Good Job
The product was shipped by "trusted_technophile" and arrive EXACTLY as described... keep up the good work!
I was worried, because it was used... but, no problems & fast service.
The camcorder, so far, seems to be a mostly daytime unit with crisp audio. I use it as an auxiliary camera, since it's so small and light... I can get it to more filming locations with less worry of loosing an expensive camera.

My Last Samsung Product
This camera worked fine for a while. After about six months, I started getting a mechanical fault. This camera has less than 2 hours of total use, has been stored and used carefully in the box it came in. Samsungs min charge for repairs is $80.00. $40.00/hr seems just a bit steep for a camcorder and I just can't see spending 40% of the retail cost for repairs in what has proven to be an inferior quality product. Save your money, buy a Canon.

Nice camera. Works fine for basic recordings. A light would be very helpfull
It's a fine camera for personal or basic recordings, various functions and effects, nice zoom, easy to use. Should come with a light to record at night or in dark places (there's a similar model with light though...)
