Pros: Small size, quality construction, auto/manual features, firewire Cons: microphones pointed up rather than forward
Best features are compact size, the ability to use either manual or automatic functions, firewire connectivity to computer and ability of Adobe Premiere to control the camera remotely, miniDV format tapes, and decent battery life.
Pros: Easy to carry around, simple to use, surprisingly good crisp color. Cons: Picks up too much wind noise.
I have a Canon IXY DV which is the Japanese version of the Elura 2MC. The difference between the Elura 2 and the 2MC is that the 2MC has a feature that allows you to capture still images onto a memory card (more on that later). My wife and I received...
Pros: Size-this camera fits like a glove Cons: The mic picks up the noisy motor which is obtrusive; poor in low lighting.
I purchased Canon Elura MC20 and the JVC GR-DVM75 with the intent that I would keep the Canon because its ergonomics are the best I have seen. It truly fits like a glove in your hand which is its best attribute.
Pros: Excellent. Easy to use. Great results. Have had for 14 mos. Use all the time! Cons: Still haven't figured out how to use the photo function/flash card.
For techno dummies like me- this is REALLY a great find. It's really small, easy to carry around. The video is SHARP. We plug it into the TV & show video all the time. We were a little reluctant about the purchase (we pd $1200 last year) but it is WORTH...
Pros: Easy to use, great for small-handed people,ultra-nice picture,docking station. Cons: battery life
After reading all of the below reviews and some outside of epinions, I decided to buy the Canon. It wasn't an easy decision, and it was only all the glorious press on Sony that made me second guess. It cost 850.00 at Vans.com, which was significantly...
Pros: This is small, light, compact and cool Camcorder. Cons: Resolution for digital pictures are not sharp and auto focus is slow.
I had wanted to purchase a digital camcorder for a long time. But there were so much to choose from. I did a lot of research and found the canon elura2mc is one of the smallest with great features. It also help when 2 of my co-workers also purchase this...
Pros: Comfortable to use, incredibly convenient and small Cons: Less feature-rich, drops fast in quality in low light
I did so much research on digital camcorders, I thought I was never going to be able to pick one out. I read nearly every review on Epinions and on every other review site I could find. The specs for the Sony looked great, although the price tag on the...
Pros: Compact, built-in speaker, good all-round camcorder, stills with video Cons: Subdued colors, low light performance, wind noise
I purchased an Elura 2MC about one month ago in advance of a trip to the Yukon. I had a working VHS Canon camcorder, but found that I just didn't carry that around as much simply because of size, so my main interest was a reasonably compact camcorder....
Pros: size, video quality, build quality, ergonomics, docking station a great idea. Cons: size, sound quality from subjects in front of camcorder, stills are ok for web
After 2 months of researching "small" camcorders I bought the Canon Elura2 MC. I am planning a backpacking trip through Europe for 3 weeks and needed something as small as possible w/o sacrificing quality. I checked the JVC (based on reviews here I took...
Pros: Size, features, progressive scan Cons: Battery life, indoor picture quality, hard to use
I have a very bad habit of spending more than I initially intended when I buy electronic gadgetry...the true sign of a junkie. I went to a chain electronics store to buy a digital camcorder to replace my massive analog Hi8 camcorder. I considered this...
Pros: Compact, Good Features, Sharp Video, Easy to Use Cons: Indoor lighting problems
I did a lot of research on camcorders before choosing to purchase this one (although I didn't know about this site). I purchased this camcorder to get some video of my newborn son growing up. I have had the camcorder for about 1 month now.
This camcorder is one of the smallest MiniDV s on the market. It's small size is packed with features. It has an 8MB Multimedia Card with 8MB on it. It can store still photos. It has a progressive scan mode and an analog A/V input. The price for...
Pros: Small size, sharp video quality with good light source, reasonably priced, interesting shooting modes Cons: Mike picks up too much wind noise, LCD came with two bad pixels
I've found that the small the camera, the more I use it. I used to have a small Digital Nikon that slipped into my pocket. I took it everywhere. I captured friends at parties. Walks with my two-year old. Traffic accidents. Anything impromptu. When I...
Pros: Lightweight, sexy, CCD scan, nice remote control Cons: It may harm your marriage
You may laugh, but I actually developed a loving bond with my new Canon Elura 2MC. Our relationship began innocently as I unwrapped and slipped the beautiful camcorder beneath the palm of my right hand. It was love at first touch! Although not the...
Pros: Ergonomics; Optical Stabilization; Picture quality; ease of use
Cons: Mic pickup; still photo resolution not as good as the PC100; standard battery life.
Great video camera. I am between a beginner and intermediate and this purchase was based on magazine reviews and a friend who already owned this camera.
Picture quality is fabulous particularly in its ability to adjust to light conditions. 35...
