An excellent value with a great price. August 7, 2008

With an excellent price of only $250 you can't ask for more in such a great camera.

JVC producrs defective November 3, 2007
I. Hargitai (USA)
Not just this JVC camcorder, but all of them will have the "safeguard mode error" pop up and the unit will be rendered useless at that point. Just say NO to JVC.

Great camera! Everything you could ask for. January 9, 2007

This camera is very small, and works great. It is easy to use, and great for travelling. I am not a technical person, but I don't mind using this camcorder.

Buyer Beware -- JVC mini DV camcorders December 26, 2006
N. Douglas Payne (Richmond, VA USA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I can tell you from personal experience with JVC mini camcorders that purchasing one is an expensive mistake. Even with a protection plan from Circuit City, Best Buy, etc., the units are EXTREMELY fragile (esp. the cassette loading/ejecting apparatus) and the now infamous "E04 Safeguard Mode" (go ahead, Google it) message will eventually appear and that will be the end of recording digital videos with a JVC mini DV camera. Further, JVC support is nonexistent with regard to these error messages and how to correct them.

This Product Will Die on You December 23, 2006

I was very happy with this camcorder....until it died on me after 10 months. I bought this for the basketball team I coach (to tape games). It was used a total of 25 times, and then it started getting error codes. It irrepairable, and I'm stuck buying a new one. Invest in a slightly more expensive model (by a DIFFERENT company). It well worth the money.
