OK, but only worth your time if you are dead set on HDD

Date of Review:  Feb 16, 2008
The Bottom Line: a good camera with nice HDD technology, but just doesn't match up to competitors in other areas with other features.
Review: when I first heard about this camcorder, I was really excited to see what it could do. The Harddrive medium is an amazing idea, something never before done (to my knowledge), and is an excellent choice. When using the camera I noticed two major...

Disappointing. Mediocre compression. HORRIBLE SOFTWARE!

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2006
The Bottom Line: Until JVC allows you to use your own editing and burning software - AVOID!!! The bundled software is SO awful, that any possible benefit of convenience is eliminated.
Review: There were just too many frustrations to have to tolerate. I felt relieved, disburdened, when I decided to return it.

The camera had heavy saturation on the greens – greens come out mildly fluorescent. The camera cannot handle mid-level...

Good Camera

Date of Review:  Jan 5, 2006
The Bottom Line: i like the camera, but don't recommend if you don't have a lot of patience to figure out the program, it's extremely difficult
Review: The camera is a nice camera and works like any other camcorder pretty much. We thought a nice feature would be that it's put on a hard drive and not a tape and we could put it all on dvd and send them to family and it would be wonderful. However,...

Finally forget about tapes or blank mini DVD's

Date of Review:  Jan 22, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would recommend the camera for keeping family memories and for people who are looking for better picture quality but don't want to buy a HD camcorder.
Review: As Christmas came closer, I was looking for a good present for my wife. She has always wanted a camcorder to finally start recording family memories to keep. Since I was a total beginner when it comes to camcorders, I spent a lot of time researching...

Great camera, somewhat confusing interface

Date of Review:  Nov 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: This camera is ready to use and can be used out of the box. After about 20 minutes of fine-tuning with the manual, it can be customized for personal use.
Review: I have owned this camera now for about 6 months, and it has served me well. The video quality is very good, though not HD, and the still photos are excellent, if you have the camera set up properly. I quickly realized that the "gain" setting on the...
