5 out of 5 eggsPerfect for what I wanted

Pros: Compact, great picture quality even when not at highest settings, travels well, great capacity.

Cons: Anti-shake not quite up to some other brands, but I guess it's hard to stablize a 700x zoom.

Other Thoughts: Bought this to travel with. We use it to record canine agility trials. Easy to transfer trial videos to the computer, edit them together (change .mod extension to .mpg) and make DVDs.

1 out of 5 eggsNot good

Pros: Great price, great features

Cons: DOA. Like another reviewer, it arrived and would not charge the battery. Worked on ac power but shut off immediately under battery power. Will have to see how long until I get my replacement.

5 out of 5 eggsSmall and packed with features

Pros: Very easy to use, bought it for a trip to Australia, and forgot to bring the manual. It was easy to figure out, and took fantastic quality video. It is so small that it fits into a shirt pocket. Battery life is fantastic, lasted all day with only dropping 1/2. The screen is easy to see in full sun light, and the zoom works very smooth. There really isn't anything I can find wrong with this great little camera! All my friends want one!

Cons: None what so ever!

Other Thoughts: If you are traveling with this camera, since there is no tape drive, the TSA allows this to remain in your hand luggage. Tested this in SFO, ORD, DTW, SYD, AKL airports. There was a sign that said "remove video recorders with a tape drive".

5 out of 5 eggsFabulous

Pros: Great features for the price!

Cons: No warranty, and lousy packaging for gift giving, but that's what refurbs are all about.

Other Thoughts: This was a great deal for my son and his family with a newborn. I just hope it doesn't break prematurely. Excellent features, plenty of storage. Since JVC Everio was the pioneer of hard drive camcorders, this should be a winner.

1 out of 5 eggs

Pros: None camera was DOA out of the box

Cons: Ordered a day before the rest of the family everyone received their cameras first. Received mine last after ordering first and ended up being DOA.

Other Thoughts: We'll see how quickly Newegg sends me a replacement.

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Camcorder

Pros: I like it so much!
28x will be enough for me, or the shaking is too much

Cons: Feel a little heavy compared with flash memory camcorder

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Camcorder

Pros: Internal / External media. VERY GOOD low-light. Long optical zoom. Easy interface. Compact.

Cons: No light (but it has better than average low-light capacity). Lens cover is not auto-retracting.

Other Thoughts: I own & use 8 video camera's - including HD. This is my first JVC - I've stayed away from them on purpose - but that will no longer be the case. This camera has its place. I bought this for my Daughter to supply me with more video of my grand-kids - but I will likely buy an additional one for myself.
