...work, I came across this JVC GC-S1E and thought it was perfect as it has a display screen for the photo's rather than a viewer, with a photo viewing function to check over the photo's and make sure they are what u require. This and the price was the main reason for my purchasing it, as at £299.99 I thought it was a bargain.

Also came with and excellent software package for photo transfer using the supplied cables and fittings, which has on screen thumbnails for easy to find photos and a choice of seperate albums for storage. So, if you are looking for a professional, stylish and easy to handle camera this is perfect, with garenteed excellent photo quallity, all you need to do is line up the shot and click.
I bought my JVC GC-S1 in New York last year. I used the camera to take pictures of the holiday and was please with the result. The great thing was being able to see the photos that I had taken and just delete the ones that didn't turn out just right. The only problem with the camera was that it took a heavy toll on the batteries. As soon as i returned from holidays I invested in an AC adaptor in order to transfer the pictures to my computer. I was ... ...ANother useful accessories for this camera is a wide angle lens as it allows you to take more picturesque pictures. I would also recommend buying an AC adaptor as it is very hard on the batteries during the transfer process.
This camera comes with decent photo enhancement software but I would still advise purchasing photosuite which is the best software for this task ...
