JVC DVL-300

Date of Review:  May 13, 2001
The Bottom Line: Outstanding picture quality at a price much less than anything in its class. I bought two!
Review: Though there is little technical difference between Digital 8 and MiniDV theoretical capability- the smaller size of the MiniDV cassette and its wide acceptance as a standard are huge positives.

To choose the JVC 300U, I tested it versus...

An easy choice

Date of Review:  Apr 5, 2001
The Bottom Line: The DVL300 is a definite recommend. It's easy to use and provides very good picture quality. With a nice feature set and attractive price, it's hard to beat.
Review: Having had several weeks to experiment with the GR-DVL300, I can say that I am very happy with my selection. I picked the camera based on the CCD resolution (note that the 300 has the same resolution as JVCs higher end models), full set of...

Acts great as camcorder and still camera in one

Date of Review:  Oct 16, 2000
Review: This camera is great for new parents and tourists. It is also a fantastic little toy. You can take high quality digital video with this, and also take still frame pictures. The computer software that comes with this is great. You get a video editor...

If you can stand the cheap feel...

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2001
The Bottom Line: Its cheesy feel makes it a no-buy in my humble epinion (IMHE?) but the price and picture quality may be tempting for you.
Review: I purchased this camera 1.5 weeks back and in all probability I will return it this weekend. The moment I took it out of the box, I was a little disappointed with the feel of the camera in my hand. The zoom button feels a little cheap and makes a...

The Bargain Hunter's Digital Camcorder

Date of Review:  Mar 12, 2001
The Bottom Line: Good beginners camcorder, great for students or novices. Can't beat the price.
Review: I recently purchased the JVC GR-DVL300U as part of an electronics spending spree. I purchased this particular model for the simple reason that it was the least expensive digital camcorder I could find. Overall I have been pleased with my purchase,...

Good camera

Date of Review:  Mar 25, 2001
The Bottom Line: Good camera , Fun to use , easy to use , Lots of features. This camera CAN take good photo's, Photo's on tape.
Review: This camera takes great video. I use the firewire port to edit and create my movies. This camera allows editing just like the pro's with additional software. For those people who do not have a firewire port, JVC provides a serial interface so you...

JVC is the best

Date of Review:  Oct 21, 2000
Review: Let's be honest: at one point in time anybody wants a camera; for shooting family movies, friends or for travelling or whatever you want. I got my share of desire about one month ago. I finally got some money put aside and I decided that a camera...

Solid Entry-Level Digital Camcorder (35% OFF!)

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 2000
Review: One of the most important decisions to make when
deciding on a new camcorder is to determine whether you
want to ?go digital.? The main reason to go digital is to
increase video/audio quality and to improve transfer
capabilities (ex...

Basic, not simple

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2001
The Bottom Line: Price and functionality can not be matched. If you're on a budget strongly consider this camera.
Review: I am getting married in July and my fiancee and myself want to have our wedding videotaped. We looked into having someone do it professionally and decided that it would be cheaper to buy a digital camcorder and let one of our friends do it. At least...
