Customer Review: this product deserves no less then 5 stars!its amazing and so teeny!
This is perfect its soo cute and stylish! it can fit in your pocket and it can take some great videos! i seriously question the other reviewers who said it was 4 stars or less! i cant put it down! iv been recording everything since it arrived. The seller who sold this item to me got it to me soo fast i was surprised. i expected to come next week since i ordered it on monday this week. i recieved it yesterday(wednesday , today is thursday.) it came well packaged and it came with no damage to the product. Oh and yes this camcorder does have a zoom on it it has a tiny joystick that you push up to zoom and down to zoom out.
Customer Review: Good video, bad sound, annoying power limitations
I am trying to rig up a camera in a vehicle to record off-road driving events. The video portion of this camera performed far better than a ?120 mini-dv camcorder (I don’t need zoom) but the in-built microphone can’t handle vibration or loud noise. All I get is distortion and recording artefact squeaks when the truck engine is running. The actual engine noise isn’t loud, the problem is vibration through the camera mount and body is getting to the microphone. The ?120 mini-dv camcorder recorded excellent sound on the same camera mount.
The other issue I have at the moment is that this device won’t allow you to power it from USB while using it. If you plug it into USB it’ll shut down immediately so you can copy video off. If you want to connect to an in-car USB power adapter to power the camera so it can record all day onto a large SD card then you can’t do that as it’ll shut down. I even have some mini-USB power cables that pass power only, it even shuts down when connected to those. It will allow itself to run when connected to its own mains supply (also mini-usb) so it’s possible to do, presumably some trick wiring. There’s no way that I will put a mains inverter in a car that has to tackle wet, boggy terrain so using the supplied mains PSU in a car won’t work for me.
So, all in all, not much good for me, but might be OK for you. Certainly not worth ?200 which it’s being sold for elsewhere, but for around the ?150 mark it’s OK.

Customer Review: The ruination of a potentially good product
This camera has all the attributes of a ‘rushed job’ product. I can’t believe JVC made any attempt to road test it before releasing it onto the market, otherwise they would have seen how terribly flawed it was. Mechanically it seems quite robust, is pretty easy to use, has the advantage of both 4:3 and 16:9 capability together with a vary useful ‘thumbnail’ index and the 30GB drive represents what would be a very large cardboard box of tapes . Agreed, the low-light performance is poor, even with the puny built-in movie light, and having to rely on the screen (there is no view-finder) to compose pictures in very bright sunlight becomes something of a challenge, but these points do not lose it four stars. It’s trying to enjoy the fruits of your videographic labours that is the problem. What does the damage is, first, the peculiar .mod file structure (a JVC unique?) and then the truly appalling Cyberlink software that comes with the camera. Even the simple transfer of files to the PC is not foolproof (loss of ’scenes’) and subsequent DVD production is both tedious and again innaccurate - i.e. I have frequently ‘lost’ anything up to 15 mins of data on a 90 minute composition. And seemingly no other video editing software can cope with that .mod file structure, so you’re stuck with what JVC have given you. No - sorry, JVC, but as it stands at the moment, this potentially great idea is a frustrating dud. Perhaps for the time being we will have to revert to the cardboard box of tapes. I am about to.
Customer Review: Ignore this at your peril!
You may be seduced, as I was, at low prices being offered for this item. DO NOT BUY IT!!! As other reviewers have pointed out, the low light image quality is very poor. The bundled software supplied (Cyberlink) is truly appalling. I have had the machine for over a month, tried it out and it worked OK - very small and light and easy to use. In fact the thing is a joy to use. But there it ends. I took mine on honeymoon, took 2 hours of video, only to find when I got it home that one of the files had corrupted (through no fault of mine) and messed up the hard disk. Took hours (literally) to eventually coax the thing to send the video files via USB, then when it finally decided to play ball the crappy Cyberlink software couldn’t write to disk. Nor could I use another programme, as the .mod files produced by the camera are not recognisable to most normal video editing software (and I tried renaming the files to mpeg, but that didn’t work). My advice would be to pay a litle more and buy Sony. JVC are not up to the mark, despite their clever advertising, and the supplied software is rubbish. You will end up tearing your hair out. Bottom line is that I regret not following my instincts to buy Sony. I will never buy another JVC product - ever. DO NOT BUY THIS CAMCORDER - IT IS A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY. Mine is going straight back to JVC.
