SHIMANO CM-2000 Final Thoughts

"My only gripe is the stand."

Great price, best quality and as tough as nails. So I definitely like this SHIMANO Video Camera as well. It is small and takes awesome pictures! Overall an okay SHIMANO Video Camera that is probably more hype. All features are the same but this is way cheaper.
