Q: Why won’t my camcorder turn on without it being connected to charger?

submitted by Luichi - 6 months ago

  • A: Hi Luichi, To get your camcorder to turn on without being connected to the charger, first check if there’s a plastic cover over the battery contacts. This cover is often included for protection and must be removed. Here are the steps: Open the battery compartment. Take out the battery. Remove the plastic shield covering the battery contacts. Reinsert the battery and close the battery compartment. Then, connect the camcorder to the charger and let the battery charge fully. Once charged, the camcorder should work without needing to be plugged in.

Then, charge it with the cable, and it should work once the battery is charged. Please feel free to reach out to Target Guest Services at guest.service@target.com for further assistance.

Wow this camcorder is a throwback to my younger years when we didnt have cell phones that took pictures or video. I kind of love having a separate thing to do that with again. It does not come with a memory card so I recommend buying a decent sized one. I got a 256mb to start with to see how it went. The quality of the video is pretty good and it has a lot of nice little easy to use features such as a light, zoom, and a timer. There is a spot on the bottom to use with a tripod, although I do not currently own one. I would buy a good case for this to transport it, but it seems well made.

This camera is great for carrying around, the picture and video quality gives that early 2000s vibe, the speaker on the camera sucks but when you transfer the video onto a computer from the SD card it sounds much better, most definitely worth the price.

Do not buy! Bought this for our girls to use to avoid cellphone use but give them the opportunity to take videos. Unfortunately we had this thing for a day and it would freeze up every couple minutes. The only way to get it to work was to take the battery completely out. Based on seeing other reviews for different problems look like it’s just a very poorly made product.

The camera quality is not terrible, but the audio is unforgivable. There are physical buttons to zoom in and out, when replaying the video you can hear the clicking of the buttons in the playback. I received this as a Christmas gift and while I love the idea I will be returning for another camcorder.

Video quality is exactly what we expected. It gave a vintage 2000s camera vibe. Audio could have been better The price was unbeatable for a cam-corder. Need to keep using to understand battery life, but seems short.

Cate Zimmer - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
The camera works fine recording wise, but the sound sucks. Whenever I film and go back to listen to the video it sounds like its underwater and there is a bubbling sound that is louder than anything in the video, so you basically cannot hear the actual sound of the video without it sounding really muffled.

This is an excellent camera for children, or if you want to shoot a couple videos that look like they’re being recorded in the 90s. It automatically turns on when you open the viewfinder screen, and the buttons are very easy to press. The lens cap can be a little more difficult to get off but that can be considered a good thing as it is securely protecting the lens. Easy and comfortable to hold with the soft hand grip. You can add extra storage with an SD card, so easy to transfer to your computer. My kids started with cataloging their toys but have now moved on to “making movies” and it feels so nostalgic to watch them with this quality of video. Love it!

My son absolutely loves this camcorder. He has big dreams of becoming a YouTuber and runs around our house daily filming. After seeing the video and helping him learn to use it, we found that it was simple to use and the clarity is great. I also observed the battery lasts long as well. It fits well in our hands and sits very comfortably. Only thing I didn't like is that it doesn't come with a port for USB-C and uses something a bit older. Other than that I would definitely recommend.

I was so excited to get this camcorder. It gave ne and my kids the opportunity to be in the moment. My children in particular were fascinated with the whole recording processs and the videos they were able to make reminded me of my childhood. Using is preftty straight forward. You need to buy an SD card, not a mini. It needs to be charged. You can take photos.

The Heyday Camcorder 8MP + 1080p in silver is decent for basic use, but the resolution feels a bit outdated. It’s easy to handle and works fine for casual recording, but don’t expect high-quality video.

Maybe I'm too used to record with my phone, but this camcorder was so neat to use. So comfortable to put on your hand and click the different buttons it has, quality was a standard 1080 nowadays a bit clearer than that to be honest, but it sure serves what it is called to do. If you want to use to look cool or just to experience how we used to record back in the day, get this compact machine.
