    4 Stars A great camera till disaster struck Review with images 25/11/2006
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Lightweight ,good clarity of pictures and sound,easy to use , well known make

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not cheap

    I purchased this digital video camera for Christmas 2004 for my husband.It came in at £249 . He wanted something easy to use, lightweight and with good quality recording. He had only previously used one of the old, huge , non-digital recorders. It needed to be reasonably priced so that it was not a disaster if damaged beyond repair , and so he could take it on holiday without worrying too much . There was no carrying case provided so I bought one as an extra present ( £20 ) along with the necessary films etc. Therefore the camera has always been stored well. Even carrying the case with the ... more

    Advantages Advantages Small and light

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Batteries tend to run down easily

    Well we finally took the plunge and bought a digital video camera. Bought this particular model in Fuerteventura on holiday. What research did we carry out before purchase? none How many other shops did we try? none What then did we base the decision to but this camera on? We tried a couple of cameras in the shop and this one felt better in the hand and the picture quality seemed a lot better in the LCD screen. Pros and cons Pros It is very light Picture quality is good It is easy to use transfer to video is simple transfer to PC is simple * internet site allows download of manuals** Cons ... more

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use generally, Colour viewfinder, Surround Sound Recording

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No remote, Some features hard to use

    This is one of my first reviews I have done for Ciao and I hope you like it! This is a superb piece of kit. It combines great quality finish, easy to use, and many important features into one low priced home camcorder. To start off with, it comes with a large, colour screen (which can be rotated 360 degrees). This enables you to easily see what you are recording, as well as watch back what you have recorded. It has a colour viewfinder, too, to easily see it without it being in B&W, like many other home camcorders. The camcorder is reliable, and I have had no severe problems with it over the ... more

    Advantages Advantages cheap, easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages common faults, no external mic

    I echo the previous comments about this easy to use, basic camera that still has plenty of functions. I should warn prospective buyers that there's a common fault among many JVC cameras involving the CCD. this should be easily fixed under warranty. Here is the official repsonse from JVC. http://www.jvc.co.uk/knowledge-list.php?​id=4#0 There is also no facility for an external mic so you often get hum from the tape. I have not yet edited yet, either on the camera or pc, this is something I'm planning to do in the near future so I'll keep you posted. I would also suggest a tripod for any serious ... more

    Advantages Advantages clear picture, good amount of functions, good features

    Disadvantages Disadvantages low battery time, breaks and over heats, dirt gets under the screen

    the jvc GR-D93EK mini DV cam corder is useful for those qucik family videos you treasure and has a wide rage of features so no movie can be the same.but what it is good for it lacks in other areas for example the battery life is disapointinly low as the camera if used constantly will run out of energy in 45-120 minutes and the charger most often will heat up and may break altogether. this camera is a nifty thing for holidays but not for long term use how ever it is at a good price. so i will reccomend this cam corder to any one because of its range of features and its video quality i hope this ... more
