JVC GR-DVM50 Camcorder

Pros: Nice looks, good picture quality
Cons: Expensive and inconvenient to hold

JVC GR-DVM50U is the smallest and lightest digital video camcorder that I have seen.

Although it looks very nice, it is not convenient to hold it (the traditional camcorder design is much better suited for this purpose). You operate it...

Pros: Compact, Light, Nice Casing, Well-built
Cons: Short Battery Life, Long Distance Zoom is average, Costs as much as your right arm.

Why I bought it?
Plain and simple, I needed one. I never owned one previously. I was going on vacation and I wanted to memorialize the trip by video taping it. I wanted to buy something affordable, yet, state-of-the-art. Basically I...

Pros: Amazing digital still pictures and digital movies, tiny tiny tiny size, intuitive design, great LCD screen, color viewfinder, long battery life
Cons: Ultra high price, but well worth it.

The damn thing is so cool. The JVC GR-DVL9500 ($1,500 street) delivers outstanding image quality and a bleeding-edge feature set. Throw in a host of features and you've got a versatile camera that's ideal for a range of consumer, sports videos, and...

Pros: compact, convenient, feature-packed, great for video & stills
Cons: almost too small, delay before recording

It's tiny, tough, has excellent image quality and a wealth of features.. I don't have much to criticise on this camera, and frankly I fell in love with it the first time I picked it up. And after 6 months of use, I still think it is great. (Note that...

Pros: Very capable, many digital features and faders, compact.
Cons: expensive, operating noise sometimes records onto tape.

It's a good little camera, small, has a tiny battery that lasts an hour. Comes with a very functional remote control. Easy to connect to the tv but seemingly impossible to hook to a computer. I've done a fair amount of research on what is the easiest and...

Pros: Take it anywhere, compact, good picture quality and features
Cons: Piece of junk. Nonexistent customer service.

We have a GR-DVM50U (same thing, just the previous model)and it's a piece of junk. We've had it in t ...

Pros: Size, features, quality, price, battery life
Cons: Nothing I've noticed

Let me start off by saying I love MiniDV. And JVC. Besides that, this is a great camera. It has all the features I could ever desire, while still maintaining a small size (small enough to slip into your pocket).

I purchased this from a...

Pros: Digital, digital, digital. Top of the line in personal technology
Cons: Editing into a VCR

The story begins with an idea I had to shoot a trip my girlfriend and I were about to embark upon.

I have purchased the JVC GR-DVM50U model after my eyes have landed upon it while looking for a much cheaper camcorder. When I held it in my...

Pros: Very small ,High quality.
Cons: Some noise, jumpy on focus.

This a very good DV-camcorder and very small, Once upon a time it was the flag ship of JVC, now its going to retirement for the new model with higher CCD resolution and Digital still camera possibilities (with embedded MMC card for the pictures). But...

Pros: Tiny, lots of features
Cons: Quality bad, repair techs don't fix problems, expensive

This camcorder started out as my favorite purchase ever. It was wonderful - it did everything I wanted it to. But then it all turned ugly.

I bought my DVM50U about 8 months ago for my trip to Hawaii. I was thrilled with it's size, features...

Pros: DualCam, 3" Screen, tons of features and specials effects, control buttons all in one place.
Cons: Viewfinder is very small

This camcorder is the first one I have ever used. For me the features it holds are a little overwhelming. There are just so many to use and pick from. The first thing that impressed me was the sound and video quality. It is absolutely amazing. The...

Pros: Size Performance/Price Features Looks
Cons: Motor Whine

This product stands out as one of the best of JVC's cybercam range - for a home/holiday camcorder it excels. It includes a huge range of features which is topped off by a basic editing base station combined with easy to use ergonomics and small size....

Pros: Handy and light weight
Cons: lots and lots of features

This camcorder was just purchased for my daughter. It is fantastic for the price. It offers lightweight, easy to use features, a 400x digital zoom, and a long lasting featherweight lithium-ion battery.

One of the neatest features that sold...

Pros: Great camera
Cons: expensive

This little thing is so cool. My boyfriend and I had one of these for a while, we got it from a friend. We took it with us to our prom and had a great time with it. When we first got it we took it every where with us, even if it was just to Wal-Mart...

Pros: GREAT QUALITY, LOADS OF EXTRAS!
Cons: sensitive handling

WOW! This is an amazing piece of equipment! I bought this camera right before leaving for a two month trip in Europe. I familiarized myself with it while I was on the plane, so I was not experienced with this specific camera in the least bit. I had...
