   I bought a ZR70 camcorder, and it died after about 2 years, and many buyers had the same problem with that model.

   check out the reviews about this problem:

   I am not sure if the problem will happen to other canon camcorder models, but it is better to be cautious, a camcorder should last much longer than 2 years.

   The tape would not work after only using it a few times. The camera was never droped always kept in a case when not filming. Will only work now with the card. Customer support is non-existant. Will never buy a canon camcorder again. Canon should stick to still cameras only.

   Only believe half of what you hear. I read all these reviews before I bought my canon 200, and a few complained of the buzzing noise, you can only hear a noise when you put your ear directly on the unit and I think anything machanical would put out sometype of noise….trust ME when I tell you this is a cool camcorder/camera. I had an old memory card from my mp3 player and after I bought the c-200 I was reading the camera section in the manual and pulled out the old card and BAM!!! I was taken awsome Pics for family and friends I never owed a digital camera before….funny huh,? in this day and age..but the canons is so easy to use just a flip of the switch and smile!!!you can also take short movies on the memory card for the computer, I also read you can take pics while you taking video I hav’nt tried that yet,but I will, with this camcorder you’ll never be borded. It is light small comes with a lens cover, software, wires to hook up to t.v./computer, battery cover, batteries for camcorder, date/time saver, and remote control. This is a MUST get!!

   I just got this camera for christmas for movie making and it’s turning out to be a great camera for people like me who are new to film making. It’s light so that you can bring it anywhere, but isn’t so light that it fells flimsy and easily breakable.
   
   For a college film I used a zr300 and liked the fell of that as well and both have great sound, the only difference with the zr200 and zr300 is that the 300 has more like more zoom and more add-ons right out of the box.
   
   Other then that I would recommend this camera to anyone who wants to begin to make movies and doesn’t want to spend a lot of money on a camera.
