Summary: BEST PICTURE FOR THE MONEY
Review: The picture quality is oustanding.
My father owns a ... Sony 3 CCD mini-DV camcorder and when he saw the playback on my ... JVC mini DV camcorder, he said the picture quality was very impressive.
This JVC's picture quality is as good as any min DV camcorder!
Basically the only reason for the price difference is for the EXTRAS--the more money, the more features you get and also the better build. One look at the ...sony camcorder and you know that it is a serious professional grade product. But, for just the picture quality, this ... JVC's picture quality is the same as the ...Sony! The JVC records up to 520 lines of resolution, the ... Sony records up to 530 lines. The more expensive JVC also records up to 530 lines.
But............... on the miniDV cassettes out there, it says that it records up to 500 lines of resolution!!!!!
So basically, all you get is up to 500 lines of resolution even if your camcorder can record up to 530 lines!
A dvd player can play up to 500 lines of resolution, but again since the pre-recorded DVDs out there have only about 480 lines of resolution, all you see is 480 lines even if you buy a [expensive] DVD player!
Bottom line, the JVC is an excellent camcorder for the price.
If you are deciding between mini-DV and Digital-8, it's a no brainer---------always go for mini-DV because it has more lines of resolution and all the professional camcorders out there are mini-DV.

Summary: Great camera for the price
Review: This is a great camera for the price. ...The camera is light, easy to use and has great picture quality. I would recommend this camera to anyone looking for a nice digial video camera. I have seen several reviews of the camera online and all say that this is a great camera for the money. There are better cameras out there but you are looking at spending several hundred more for one of those cameras. This camera was a breeze to use with my Apple Powerbook to do video editing with Imovie. No configuration was needed to use the camera with the laptop. I just hooked up the firewire to the laptop and used Imovie to edit and export the film to Quicktime or back to the camera. One note, a firewire cable is not included with this camera so if you are planning on editing via computer you will need to pick one up. Overall I would highly recommend this camera to anyone who wants a DV camera that is easy to use and not very expensive.

Summary: Satisfied
Review: This is my first camcorder so I really couldn't do much comparison. So far, I am satisfied with the image/sound quality and I sucessfully downloaded the video to my PC with Win2000/1394 card/Ulead Videostudio 6.0.
