Summary: I have used the Camcorder to take wedding pictures, vacation pictures in Costa Rica and general videos of the Central Florida coast area here. After having the camcorder for 3 years I built an AMD 1.2 GHz, 46 BB hard drive with 512 Mb SDRAM memory & aRadeon ATI All In Wonder 32MB graphics card. The compatability & capabilities are fantastic! Strengths: While this was one of the first Mini DV format camcorders I am much happier now that I have the computer capture capability. The pictures are sharp and exceed any consumer analog VHS quality. Weaknesses: The resolution is lower than the camera's on the market now but that is to be expected! The operator manual does not have all the necessary instructions however if you perservere you can get the complex answers from tech support Similar Products Used: Before buying the unit I compared several new format Mini DV cameras & settled on the JVC. Customer Service: Have not had a need for customer service. I did have a problem trying to get the frd arrow out of the playback picture & after 3 years & several TS requests I found a person there with the answer & I was extremely happy!
