 Great Product March 24, 2001
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great product! It's lightweight, durable and very easy to use. You can add neat effects to what you are filming and can edit them using the software included. One very small yet a flaw none the less is that I can't find any more batteries for the camcorder and I'm stuck with one that doesn't last very long if you're constantly using it. All in all this is a great product that I'd highly recommend.
A good investment for vacations and family recording November 14, 2000
Jeremy Hartman (chandler, arizona United States)
I bought this camcorder 2 months ago. I have barely used it, but when I do I get great images and superb sound. This would be great with a computer (in which I do not have). I have plugged it in to my television for editing and playback. A good product for family use. Birthday parties, Holidays, and special occasions can all be recorded. This is the top of the line in technology with MINI DV.
 Just bought 505U November 1, 2000

I just bought this camera's successor, the JVC GR-DVL505U. It arrived yesterday, and it seems like a great product! I really only tried taking some basic shots and importing them into the PC, but I have high hopes for some great online home video in the future!P.S. I found the camera online for($) -- With accessories it came out to about the same price most major stores list it as.

I just got back from a 3 week romp in europe and this camera did more than I expected, light and very compact. JVC also provide the user with everything you'll need to begin and the charger is dual voltage so just buy the adapter ... and just go. Picture quality is Awesome, but the still are not to good, I really should read the instructions maybe I'm missing somthing.
