    Pros: nice price, size
    Cons: stupid joystick-like menu button hard to deal with.

    Summary: I’ve been meaning to review my JVC GR-DA30 Mini DV Camcorder for quite some time now. I’ve had it about 4 months now, and I paid $199.99 for it at Best Buy, but when shopping around for prices on this particular camcorder, I found it was priced the same ... read more

    Pros: Small, lightweight, easy to use, inexpensive
    Cons: Exposed LCD viewer, short battery life

    Summary: I’d wanted a camcorder for a while, years in fact. However as a non-necessity that would cost at least $300 and likely more, a camcorder just never actually worked its way into my discretionary budget. With camcorder prices dropping rapidly I ... read more

    Pros: Light, inexpensive, easy to use, great battery life
    Cons: Volume/focus and record buttons are two close together for us fat fingered folks.

    Summary: I bought this after having a horrible experience with a JVC Everio HDD camera. The mini DV tapes are way better to work with than the HDD. This camera is light, easy to use, and does everything I need it to do. The guy who rated this camera as a one star

    Pros: Small easy to carry and the price was great! Also, takes great videos.
    Cons: The buttons are very small and hard to read.

    Summary: Great Camera, does a good job without spending a lot of money. We don't use it that often so we could not justify an expensive camcorder. This camera really produces surprisingly good videos.
