Garbage

Date of Review:  Apr 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: Even if you are on a budget...AVOID THIS CAM. Save for a better cam.
Review: I bought this camera a year ago. Took it to Colombia and it shot DECENT quality. Low light was absolutely horrible. But you get what you pay for. While the camera was working it was OK. Just used to film little stuff...not like I was making a movie...

Review: i agree with the review by ammazcd. this camera is less than a year old, has been used to record less than 5 hours of video, and now the playback is blocky. head-cleaning tapes are supposed to solve the problem, but they don't. more importantly, why...

A Lightweight, in All the Wrong Ways

Date of Review:  Jan 23, 2006
The Bottom Line: Substandard video, especially at night. Awful still images. Awful audio.
Review: My faithful old Sony Hi8 camcorder bit the dust, so I decided to 'upgrade' to the digital MiniDV, happy that it weighed about half what the old camera did. Well, first off, don't assume (as I did, alas) that 'digital' is going to give you a better...

OK for the price

Date of Review:  Dec 13, 2007
Review: The camera works OK for outdoors or well-lit or close-up indoor video.
However, I used it to video tape my son's play last year, and I was very unhappy with the results. I put it on a tripod at the back of the theater and left it on autofocus...

This camera stinks

Date of Review:  Dec 1, 2005
Review: I purchased this camera with high hopes. Boy was I diappointed. The camera needed to be cleaned after just 2 hours of use. Upon contacting JVC, they told me to ship it to an authorized JVC dealer and they would check it out. One problem. I have to...

Great camera

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2006
Review: I have used this camera now for about 3 months. I have taped well over 20 hours of video without a glitch.
Conversion to dvd was quick and easy using a firewire card. (for those new to video editing this is the accepted standard for video...

Great Camcorder

Date of Review:  Dec 31, 2005
Review: I believe this camcorder is the best in its price range. It is my first camcorder and I am very happy with it. I have been transfering the tapes to dvd format with my cheapo dvd player to save money on the slightly expensive tapes (FYI it does not...

great cam

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2006
Review: GR-D270 has great features. Yes, the lens cap is crap and for the price it should be better. Loading tapes is easy, controls are good, and the design is good too. The battery needs to be charged before use, its normal for this type, they loose...
