Great Camera 2006-11-08
I read up on all the cameras in my price range. This camera by far was the best buy. I bought it over a year ago and have been very happy with it. It has alot of great features, so much that I really haven't used them all. I highly recommend this camera it's been reliable and the photo quality is great. A great buy Especially for the money!
The worst deal without warranty 2005-07-07
I bought it around 3 months. Now it can not play. The vedio is messed with strips. Actually, I used it only several time will totally brand new cassettes. When I connect with JVC, the maintenance man charge me 30 dollars for a look and uncertain dollars for labor. It is crazy!!!!!

I should say its function is average,but the warranty is nil. So I give 1 star not 0.
Perfect for those looking for a budget digital camcorder! 2005-04-28
After reading many reviews (good and bad), I decided to spend my hard earned money on this JVC camcorder because of the price and all the features. I bought this camcorder back in February when Amazon had it on sale for 66% off (main reason of purchase). So far, it has probably been the best purchase I have ever made.

The good things I like about this camcorder is that it is light weight compared to my older Panasonic VHS-C camcorder. Also, the high resolution recording's quality is absolutely gorgeous. There are manual options to set the color schemes (sephia, b&w, classic) as well as an option to record in widescreen mode and a wide lens mode. This camcorder also has great built in transition effects and a automatic mode for beginners that sets everything according to outside conditions. As for the digital camera features, they are pretty much average. If you wish to store high resolution pictures, it'd be a good idea to invest in a high capacity SD memory card. The camera mode even has a built in flash.

Now for the real stuff, the real reason why I purchased this was to output the video onto DVD. The USB cable included with this camera only made quality for "VHS" or VCD style. VCD is nothing like DVD quality. The USB cable's limitations in speed only allowed output to VCD. However, this camera also has a Firewire/IEEE1394 input which allows high speed data transfer with the PC. In order to output to DVD you'll need 5 things: firewire card, firewire cable, dvd authoring/encoding/capturing program, dvd burner, and blank dvd media. None of these listed comes with the camcorder so that's a minus. However, after purchasing the firewire cable as well as the firewire card I was able to capture, edit, and make menus for my home video onto DVD via Ulead VideoStudio 8 (a great program, btw). The quality was just amazing. Not only did I have a home video in digital format but I also had it in a format that will last me years to come.

Some things that I didn't like about this camcorder was the "night alive" feature. The "Night Alive" feature slows down the frames per second so much so that it is impossible to record without having the video lag. Battery life isn't that great either but I remedied that by buying a extra battery just in case. To store pictures you'd have to use a switch to switch it to memory mode to save the pics on the SD card otherwise it's picture on tape which is even worse quality, an annoyance but livable.

So for a camcorder/camera that allows output to DVD as well as take digital pictures for under $300, you really can't find a better camcorder with all these features for that low of a budget.
Great Buy! 2005-03-24
I was looking for a camcorder to film my young child as she grows and anything else important. I find this one very easy to operate and very compact and neat. Picture is hi resolution so it looks really good on TV. It also takes great snap shots I have gotten compliments on how nice it is.

My only negatives are the DV tapes are kind of expensive (2 for $16) and I have not yet figured out the CD that came with it. It is easy to save on a video cassette tape but I havent figured out how to save to a DVD.

Great buy for the Price Amazon provided for me!
Amazon's great!
works for me 2005-03-14
I AGREE WITH "THE KID" & J JONES. DISAGREE WITH "UJJWAL" & "RSAM" THIS CAMERA IS A LITTLE DAUNTING AT FIRST BUT WITH EACH FEATURE LEARNED COMES A GREATER SATISFACTION FOR HAVING PURCHASED IT. IT IS FUN, FUN, FUN. GREAT PICS, LOTS OF FEATURES, VERSATILE, INSIDE, OUTSIDE, ITS JUST A SUPER CAMERA.
THIS CAMCORDER WAS PURCHASED FROM AMAZON.COM FOR $284.99 IT HAS TAKEN A LITTLE JUMP IN PRICE. I'D STILL BUY IT.
