Product Description

The JVC GR-SX851U features a built-in light which improves the picture in night time situations. This camcorder has three recording modes: It uses Super VHS recording to deliver up to 60% better resolution than the standard models for better quality home movies. For quality and economy, the Super VHS ET mode lets you take those high-resolution videos using any VHS-C tape. For compatibility with any VHS video recorder, standard VHS is also available. The picture stabilizer gets rid of annoying picture shake. The 300X zoom makes sure you don't miss any of the action.

Don't Waste Your Money

JVC continues to turn out products that are defective and they do not stand behind them.I bought my daughter a camcorder for her graduation and she is unable to use it because the camera displays an E03 lockdown mode message which disables the camera.Apparently the only way to fix this problem is to bring it to a dealer and pay for the repair.I also understand that it can be a reoccuring problem.There is a class action suit pending.Spend your hard earned money on a better product....

Best bang for buck

I have three camcorders that alternate depending on the event I want to cover. This one is really the one I like the most. First it has excellent resolution that should be expected out of camera of this cost range. My freinds were dazzled once we showed the playback on TV, people asked if it was digital. The battery life is also excellent and so is the quality and rate of charging..takes 1 hour for full charge..and 30 minutes charge gives 2-3 hours of recording. This is quite good for me. The inbuilt...

Because they won't let me givt a ZERO!

I bought this camera (my third camcorder), because of the name. As I found out the name isn't every thing. I had it 2 weeks, and in that time I had to call JVC (their online service never returned my e-mail) twice. The first time I could fix it myself waiting 45 min. The seconc time (after having this camera only 2 weeks)I was told to take it in for repairs, so I sent it back. Save your timebuy something else....

An actual bargain!

I recently bought this camcorder... not expecting too much... I was glad I [got the] SuperVHS model because the images are razor sharp - rivalling MiniDV camcorders to an untrained eye. I transfered the video to my computer via my ATI All-In-Wonder Pro video card's S-VHS input and the results were amazing, using my inexpensive ... VideoWave editing software I was able to bump up the color and saturation to highly satisfying levels. The image stabalization feature works great, I filmed from a bicycle...

Nothing but trouble

I have had nothing but trouble from this camcorder.This is the third camcorder that I have used extensively and the first that I have had any trouble with at all.The other two were Sony products and I should have stayed with that brand.No matter what I do I get an "E03" message on the screen and the camcorder shuts down.I bought this to videotape my newborn son and the moments that I have lost because of this inferior camcorder are irreplaceable....
