Canon ZR60, Great Potential, Ultimate Dissatisfaction

Date of Review:  May 28, 2003
The Bottom Line: Could have been the best deal around but horrid indoor picture quality forced me to return it.
Review: I wanted to upgrade my 1995 Panasonic VHS C. The viewfinder was starting to act up and I decided I wanted something smaller, lighter and newer. I was looking to spend $400 - $600 price range. I looked at the Canon ZR60, Panasonic PV-DV203 and Sony...

Worth the money, for me.

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you are on a budget and want/need DV technology, this is a good choice.
Review: I bought this at the "After Thanksgiving Sale" because of the Price and the Features. I have hundreds of hours of VHS and HI8 video tapes that I want to digitize and store on DVD/CD. (I was surprised how many "upper end" DVcam's do NOT have a...

Keep your receipt, you might need it!!!

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2005
The Bottom Line: Buy from a good retailer and keep your receipts so you don't have to waste time with Canon's support if it doesn't work.
Review: Sure enough, about a month after the 1 year warranty expired, all I can record are vertical streaks. It still plays back fine, so I believe it's a problem with the CCD or associated electronics.

This is nothing new. I had to return my...

Do Not Recommend

Date of Review:  Dec 18, 2005
The Bottom Line: Shop around and go DVD if possible. If not possible, get a higher end Mini DV.
Review: I bought this camcorder after the RCA VHS-C camcorder I had had for 8 years needed a new battery. Instead of paying $40 for the new battery, I decided maybe it was a good time to shop for something new and updated. I was also in the market for a...

Nice entry camcorder

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2004
The Bottom Line: An easy-to-use camcorder for the budget-conscious.
Review: I purchased the Canon ZR60 from a Gateway store that was closing in April 2004, for approximately half the list price. What a steal! The ZR60 is no longer being sold in many places, but it can still be had on-line, and it's definitely worth some...

SHREDS TAPES!!!!!!!!

Date of Review:  Mar 29, 2006
Review: I purchased this camera a couple of years ago and have been unhappy with it ever since. On the second use it "ate" a tape. I send it in for a factory repair and it continues to do the same thing. I have used it very little for fear of losing...

Best Camcorder for Beginners

Date of Review:  Aug 4, 2003
The Bottom Line: Biggest bang for your buck and read the manual.
Review: When I finally decided on the ZR60 I went through two different digital camcorders. First camcorder I tried was the Sharp VL-NZ100U. A good budget beginner camcorder with alot of options, but just didn't like the feel of the camcorder. Next I tried...

Was Excited when I got it, now just bummed

Date of Review:  Aug 9, 2003
The Bottom Line: Get another one in the ZR series (ZR-65 or the ZR-70).
Review: I bought the Canon ZR-60 at Best Buy two hours before I left for London (I live near Dallas). I bought the camcorder because I wanted to shoot some footage of the London area and my trip. I fiddled around with it on the plane, but I noticed that...

No I can't see you, turn a light on!

Date of Review:  Feb 21, 2004
The Bottom Line: IF you need a camera for your family, and friends to capture lifes moments, this works. Stay away if your concerned how your image looks.
Review: I was excited to purchase the Canon ZR60. I have always wanted a digital camera, and at only $400, it was a steal, right? I had done little research prior to purchase, basically just looking at a few different cameras and comparing them, rather than...

Great MiniDV at a Great Price

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2003
Review: I agree with the reviews that panned the ZR60 for low light situations. That said, GET A LIGHT! It makes a huge difference with any camera for most situations. The features of the Canon ZR60 that I rave the most about are battery life, the picture...
