Conclusion: The GR-D33US is clunky to operate, but you might consider it for its good video quality and LED headlight, especially considering the price.
Pros: Good video, especially for the price. LED headlight for low-light illumination. 16x optical zoom.
Cons: Cumbersome controls. No hot shoe. Still images are bitmaps grabbed from video, not JPEGs, and they look dreadful.
