I've got a similar camera to that. It's a few models previous, I got it a few years back. Here's my review;

Picture quality is dire when used for stills. (reasonably) Hi Res does not neccesarily mean the images won't be incredibly blurred (they will be!)

Unless you're filming something slow moving from a tripod, expect horizontal breaks in the image.

Don't even consider using it on your bike.

The video quality is comparable to that of a cheap digitals stills camera and the sound is about the same.

On the plus side, it's so cheap and useless, you won't mind taking it to festivals, on outdoor pursuits, nights on the lash etc. as losing/breaking it won't concern you at all. So, if you want footage of yourself being sick into a toilet, or having a fist fight with your best friend that you can't remember, it's great.

Ah, no I was hoping it'd go on my bike... It's hard being a tightwad and getting quality goods I tell ya.

If you spend all your money on expensive cameras, where do you find the money to wax your front bottom?
