Sorry to waffle, It is my first camcorder nevermind a digital one but am I expecting to much from the picture. I have just quickly recorded my front room (not fully lit) and the picture seems a bit blocky. I understand it is not the higest number of pixels for a CCD but I was expecting a pretty good picture from a digital cam corder.

I would appreciate people comments. Thanks.
