(4 stars) - Great Product
I love the product. The picture quality is second to none. I love that the camera is compact and that I can point and shoot. I also like the fact that if I am holding the camera and videoing, the picture is really steady. The only thing I would like to see if the ability to plug into my computer and download.

(3 stars) - You get what you pay for
Very nice product indeed, no complaints at all except for some "minor details" i'm about to point. First, video quality is average, don't even think to ask for HD-like video because it ain't happening, but it's okay, if i wanted an HD camcorder i would've bought one. Second, there is no hot-shoe to attach lightning devices on it, it's amazing the lack of such essential issue in a camera that has no lights!!!, so in my particular case i had to buy an adapter which attaches on the tripod mount. Terrible design flaw there, what where JVC's engineers thinking of????. Third, ah my dear JVC friends, a Firewire cable would be a VERY NICE touch from you, and the cost of such device is ridiculous so you can't argue "cost reductions for competitive sell prices"... but nope, no Firewire cable included.
Despite all of the above i'm quite satisfied with the product.
And last but no least, Amazon's service: Flawless, as usual. I appreciate that.

(5 stars) - great product!
A great camera for the money. It does what you might expect from a more expensive model. Strongly recommend!

(5 stars) - Works Great for What It Was Intended
I bought this to be used on my ATV trips. I mounted a Ball Head on the front rack of my ATV and mounted the camera on that. Does a great job. Picture quality is better than expected. My JVC with a hard drive cuts off apparently caused by the magnetic field from the ATV engine. This camera suffers no problems due to that field. For my purpose, it is excellent.

(5 stars) - wonderful
this company had a quick turn around time, this camcorder is easy to set up it took me about five minutes on how to use it. i love it
