4 out of 5 stars Still not bad   December 28, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have had this camera for approximately 4-1/2 years now, and it's still a good product. The only complaints I have are that (1) it doesn't connect to the computer in any way, and there are no longer products out that will convert the RCA cables into a USB input. (2) The battery will not hold any type of charge whatsoever anymore - I have to plug the camera into a wall to be able to use it, and replacement batteries are near impossible to find at ridiculous prices. From Sharp directly it's a $50 battery. I managed to find one at Fry's for about $30, but it's still NiMH and I would like to find a lithium-ion so we don't have this problem again. Other than that, it's a wonderful camera, and I absolutely love it.


5 out of 5 stars Everything I Wanted In A Camcorder   December 27, 2001
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I wanted a reliable, simple to use, high quality camcorder at a good price and the Sharp VLAH150 so far has met all my criteria. You can't go wrong buying this camcorder.


5 out of 5 stars Two words to describe ease of use--Point and Shoot !!!   December 18, 2001
 10 out of 10 found this review helpful

My wife and I looked at many camcorders and she instantly liked this one. I asked her why and she said the design(non-flip 3" screen) and the main reason was that there wasn't a million buttons all over it. Buttons scare the average person. Once we started using it she told me thats why she would not use our old one. This model is very simple and gives new meaning to 'point and shoot'. Personally I like lots of features and boy, does this camera have features! Letterbox recording, black and white, sepia, strobe, photo shot, pic-in-pic, awesome zoom. All this and lots more!! You can't beat it for the price (...).


4 out of 5 stars took some getting used to   July 17, 2001
 12 out of 12 found this review helpful

This is my second camcorder, and it did take some getting used to. I guess I was used to my older one, even more so than I thought. Once I played around with this camcorder for a couple hours I got the hang of it and started to really enjoy it! I love the photo shot effect, as well as the fact that I can shoot in black and white. At first, I missed my old camcorder, but now I love this one!


4 out of 5 stars Great Product for the price   June 13, 2001
 14 out of 16 found this review helpful

Great zoom features and the camera is light and Easy to use and has great features such as 16x optical zoom and 400x digital zoom. The only problem I have is that it doesnot connect to the computer. The image in the camcorder is OK for the price point and image shakes violently in digital zoom mode if you are zooming in too much.
