Thanks, I was really concidering buying this camera as well, but if those are the sounds coming from it I'll look elsewhere for something better, thank you again for posting this!
This is great you're a huge help cause this was my top choice for getting a new camcorder, do you have any suggestions on what would be best for hd under $200?
Some of the sounds are me turning the camera on a cheap Wallmart tripod and so there are some popping noises. However, the hiss and cricket like cherps are coming from the camera. And some of the clicking sounds are coming from me pressing the zoom button. I wish I had a chance to check it out before I bought it. Shame on Samsung, they even say in the manual that it picks up camera sounds when quiet so they knew. Who would have thought a company would even make a camera that would be this noisy?
Yes, don't buy until you have gone to a real store that has the camera. Have them let you do a demo. Then, replay the video you take in the store and listen to it.
