[QUOTE="Tim Perry, post: 39059, member: 94"] Re: Looking for a cheap mini camcorder recommendation for recording shows I have a q3. After upgrading the software, it worked much better in low light (typical bar gigs). The mic gain has two settings: too hot, and not enough. Battery life with standard alkaline is terrible. Battery life with lithium's is acceptable and the higher cost. There is no easy way to power it from a supply. The mic only / camera button went intermittent making mine unusable. While recording video it switches at random to mic only mode. I took it to the place of purchase and have been waiting over 6 months for a repair or replacement. I was told this week that the mfr. would not repair under warranty. it is less then one year old. [/QUOTE]
