Sanyo VPC-CG102 High Definition Camcorder and 14 MP Camera w/12x Optical Zoom

It says on the description here that "Reduce your chance of missing the perfect shot. The Dual Camera CG102 is designed for super fast start-up and shooting. With its tapeless design, the CG102 eliminates the need to queue up a video tape, allowing it to begin shooting in as little as 1.7 seconds.

When the CG102 is powered on, closing the LCD display puts it in standby mode. Simply open the display and the CG102 automatically powers up and can begin immediately recording in as little as 1.7 seconds."

This worked for me for maybe 2 weeks but now when I hold the on/off button it takes maybe a minute to turn on or sometimes I have to click it in a specific order for it to turn on. Also when it is on and I put it in stand by mode, by clicking the on/off button, everything works fine until I close it then open it again. Instead of turning back on it shuts down. So if anyone knows how to fix this please tell me.

If you want a camera you can actually use and take with you to capture impromptu moments of life, this is Xacti is the One to get. If you're looking to do more setup (tripod, etc) and get better stability, microphone hookup, 80x+ zoom, 5 hour battery, etc, then look for a bigger, higher priced barrel type unit with more features.
