Blurry videos on youtube: Does anyone else have this problem with this particular camera?

Yes!!! I have this problem as well! It's so upsetting because this is supposed to be a high quality camera. And I don't feel like spending $500 for a second camera. Have you found the solution for this? If you look at my YouTube channel: APurposeDeep, you can see that my first 2 videos were recorded with it and the quality is very poor :(

Hello, Terry, I utilize the camera to film my YouTube cooking show. It does seem to have a problem maximizing standard light sources (apartment lighting), which might impact your filming. I have personally struggled to get the light sensors to create bright video even when every light in the kitchen is on. On the plus side, the camera does produce high quality, very large image files. It works for YouTube, but how it would translate to a full blown filming depends on if you are utilizing industry lighting or shooting in bright sunlight. If so, it should work well. If you are going to film in low light or darkened outdoor conditions, you might want to search elsewhere. Hello, Terry, I utilize the camera to film my YouTube cooking show.

yeah, it's not a great camera to begin with and it's probably breathed it's last breath. My camera has always been blurry and I've been disappointed with it. It's dead

Check out the review comment posted at the product site on Amazon - one chap has addressed the blur issue specifically. Here's the link to the review http://www.amazon.com/review/R3PJS6SOXSDS0E/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm

I have the same blurry problem, I think that I got a faulty camera. About 1 in 4 pictures are usable, this camera was a waste of money. Mount Fuji! eat my shorts! My cannon elph sd200 which is 3 years older takes far superior pictures and is 3.2 Mega pixels. Causing me to learn, its not the megapixels that matter.

I returned one of these camera because of a similar problem. I noticed a white flickering dot during playback. I observed while filming and the dot was present on the LCD screen. I got a second one and the dot wasnt there at first. It came back on the second camera but in a different place. I'm baffled and wish i could find more info on this issue. If anyone has more info on this, let me know!

We have had many dissapointing 'fuzzy' pics as well. Especially indoors with the flash. Please see my review here (if they print it)! Essentially, our old 2 megapixel 'FujiFilm' cam puts the Olympus pics to shame. Maybe we got a defective unit?

I have been tracking this issue also, but I don't have the new camera yet. I just put together s system with the same processor and memory, and installed Sony VMS 10.From what I have heard, the problem is capturing the video from the camera in it's native format. Once its in a suitable format, it will handle the video.Check the forums at sony here:http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/forums/default.asp

It may be just me, but I rarely upload raw, straight video from camera to Youtube. I think every video could use a little clean up and editing before posting. Unless you have something earth shattering, take the time to make it look good. That said, I'm not sure if YouTube will take the native file format of this camera or not. The files are large - reason two for making edits and 'right-sizing' the files. You can make the files the best they need to be for whatever service you upload them to. Finally, I can confirm, without a doubt that this camera does not have the ability to do a wireless file transfer. Good luck!

Thomas, I love the camera!!! It's extremely easy to transfer the videos to your PC to edit. I have found that even though the software initially permits "frame to frame" editing, it actually edits in segments on the PC. When transferring to "YouTube" I have lost the last segment, yet, I'm a novice at this. It is possible to edit on the camera directly which I have not yet tried. The camera is new to me and I wasn't yet confident enough that I may loose my videos while editing on the camera. The camera is amazing for far distance shooting, the main reason for my purchase. Hope this has been of help. cj

I had the same problem. It would take me about five or six tries. I also had a problem editing the video using premiere pro cs4. some videos would not play and all the videos the sound never matched up. they sent me a new pair of glasses and that took care of connecting to my computer. It worked the first time everytime but I still had a problem editing the video. I just sent the glasses back. I would say contact them. they were real easy to work with.

I bought the Canon A1400 for my grandson. He loves to take pictures with it and we have not noticed any problem with blurry pictures. Occasionallythe videos are blurry but I think that because he swings the camera back and forth too fast.

I agree. Recently my hubby and I were shopping, and I wanted either the Olympus FE-370, or the CAnnon sx-110-Is.Low and behold when I opened the parcel yesterday, there was that fugifilm s1000. every shot was blurry and just crap!Im returning it today, and going to get one of my first choices.

My device too records blurry videos while I am moving and very close to the camera.

I finally took a video and yes, it takes nice video. I do not know an exact light reading but the videos indoors with little light are poor quality. It needs a well lit room or sunshine for a good video.

My sister and I both had this camera and we had the same problem. I think that once you start having issues with this camera there is no going back. I would just upgrade. We never figured out why the glitch occurred.
