Advantages: Excellant pictures, features and value. Disadvantages: Uses an eye piece rather than a side screen.
I have recently bought a JVC compact VHS digital camcorder, model number GR-AX201. I bought this particular item as I am well into computers and wanted to try messing around with the various digital features. My wife also want a digital camera.
This camcorder can take still snapshots, comes with many editing features for the experienced user and is so easy to use for the less experienced. It comes with an excellant picture stabalizer, very quick auto focus and an integrated auto light for use when the natural light is too dim. It has many other features which I could give however the one I like is the way I can just remove the film, place it into the cassette adapter ( basically a video tape ), and then watch it immediately like a video.
This product is excellant for anyone wanting a digital camcorder. ...

INTRO
With a weight below 180 grams this medium-sized case can be considered, without a doubt, a lightweight case. I have been looking for a case where to put my werdly-sized camera (Canon S5 IS) for a long time after the fiasco of the original canon bag in which my camera does not fit properly; so I was in a shop (Curry's) the other day and I spotted this case on a shelf with a 97p tag on it. I asked the assistant if it was indeed 97p and so it was... I imediately bought it. I later found out that the price of this bag usually varies between £10-£15, currently on amazon is around £13 so I can consider myself quite lucky and happy of the amazing deal.
OVERVIEW
So let's see some details, first of all the size: approximately 17 x 11 x 10cm. The material ...
Advantages: Slim, light, attractive, good battery life, produces really good images. Disadvantages: No disadvantages as of yet!
I had previously used a battery powered digital camera and found it to be very consuming, not only had I paid such a great deal for the camera but also had to constantly top it up. I decided to invest in a rechargable version; my first thoughts were that it was a little more expensive and wasn't sure how reliable the battery was, thankfully my purchase of the L201 was brilliant.
I can take 400 pictures, at around 7 Mega-pixels and still have one bar left, memory for the camera is cheap and easy to come by, I purchased a card from Tesco for around £5. I took this to America and stored hundreds of pictures, without charging, leaving all of these on the memory card for the entire trip and returned home with enough battery to review all of my pictures and then upload them to my computer.
It looks stylish, is very light and takes excellent ...
