for minDv, at first, i was consider for panasonic NV-GS5EN. in fact, i almost going to swap my credit card pay for this camera as i test infront of the video camera shop. the video quality is very clear and nice.

However, for the final minute i change my mind and switch to JVC dx300 due to sales man advice. he told me the most popular item is dx300 due to cheap price and more feature and high quality video, and he sold almost 25 units per months (would you believe what he said??).

Now, i cannot believe my eye, the 540 lina of resolution is a major strength for this machine. 3" lcd and one touch to record the video to memory card. This is the true minDV i am looking for. Another point for this product is small size, very compact, slim, easy to handle, the grid make me so comfortable.
the prices almost excellent compare to sony and canon for same feature

my husband gave a lot of credit for this video cameres. for still image, i would like to say moderate not so bad and not so good. anyway this is not a main function for me, for still image is only extra function for me.(as i have canon digital camera for 4 mega pixel).

finally, i am sure in future this video camera will help me to creature more fun for my family, perhaps later 10 years and i will looking for DVD recorder. this is totally best buy and not regret. thank you.

According to my fusband feedback, he is very happy and love this product. good quality video better than sony at least 75 percent. for still camera photo, after we develop to photo, it's very nice and clear. a lot of function to cover different situation to make the video and photo look nice.

Small and nice shape also attract me, of course the price is even more encourage us. if talking about weakness point for this product,, hmm,,,i would like to say during the darkness environment, you might hard to get a clear video, although it have a BACK ligh function, but it still cannot help much, if this product can add some light accessory to support the background it will be very very nice.

i hope those who looking for budget type video camera, i will strong suggest for pick this product, because i believe in future more and more new technoly will come out and the price will be more cheaper for better technology so wht for pay more as this product will provide all wht you want. thank you

The strong point for choosing this product are show as following :

1: 3" LCD, this is excellent lcd for me to watch and view picture.

2: 1600*1200 resolution, the quality photo after i print was surprising me, it was really good and clear. but i will suggest only print on 4r size, over that the quality may drop as i guest.

3: multi function for digital still camera function like
a)red eye,
b)timer,
c)distance sense for judge the distance from the object and perform automatice flash level,
d)several mode for photo effect,
e)flash adjust
f)five quality ptoho to choose
g)night shot for enhance the indoor light
h) and contain basic other function like other digital camera

4: can still the photo from min DV to memory card, this allow you when you are runing out of memory from SD ram, you still can capture the photo from min dv, however the quality limitation is only 640*480.

5: 540 lina of resolution, this is far enough for general user.

6: mpeg4 function allow you to creaure a small e-mail for send to your friend.

7: reduce wind sound for better sound quality, and stabil image

8: heavy duty, well i did experience drop from table around 3ft, well it still work (might be this is my luck)

9:wide screen and other screen function

10: the shape is small, easy to carry.

11: the quality after i view from TV, all the video i capture is perfect

the weakness point is : without build in light when in dark environment and standard battery life is low.

In overall, from this price to get the same function and hight quality, i think only JVC dx300 can satisfy us. I would suggest this model is suit for general purpose use in travel , small, easy carry, heavy duty and best quality.
In addition, jvc dx95 and dx75 can be consider, but the photo quality and function may be less, so if you looking for travel pack digitil vidoe camera, this is an intellgent choose, thank you wish you all the best.

I used to own a camcorder and a separate digital camera for vacations and family events, but what a hassle it was to try to use them both at the same time. With this camera, I have been able to shoot video and take digital still photos at the flip of a switch, without having to fumble through the cameras. The video quality is outstanding and the digital still camera takes very clear photos (as long as you let the camera's auto focus zero in on what you want to take a photo of). Overall, a very high-quality camcorder with digital still photo capability!

The best thing about this JVC camera is the price, you will find this camera to be a lot less expensive. Comparable cameras from Sony and Canon are a lot more expensive for the same realtive features! I highly recommend this camcorder!
