"Excellent Photos and very acceptable video"
Pros: Very best photos and video all in one device
Cons: menus not intuitive, but great easy mode
Summary: This is the perfect camcorder for anyone who wants to shoot great video footage and more importantly, have the best photos you can get from a camcorder. The device is an excellent alternative to bringing both a camera and a camcorder on vacation/anywhere. You will need a spare battery, and the menus for each of the devices is very different, appearing to have been designed by 2 different teams. Some may dislike this, I actually prefer this feature, it assists in ensuring you know which mode you are setting options for. Alternatively, the easy mode button works great and overides all the other settings, making it easy to shoot great video and photos. I have recently purchased 3 mini DV camcorders, a Canon elura 85, Panasonic GS35, Panasonic GS65, and a JVC grdvl-820u. The JVC had intermittent problems and did not work consistantly from day 1 and was taken back, the others shoot good video, but the pictures are extremly poor, so were tken back. If you are like me and want to take pictures to share often, and shoot some video and want to transfer, edit, and make your own home movie DVDs, (that will probably get viewed much less than your photos) this is the only camera that is an all in one solution!
