from Local Pawn Shop Summary: Given what I bought the camera for I'm pleased. I've been working with it a bit and find that it fits my hand well. A fact that appears to be lost on the "ever smaller" focus is that many of us have much larger hands and fingers...than the buttons and even bodies of the newer cameras.
For personal, fun and vacation use this camera is fine. When I need better zoom or sound I use a better camera but if you don't need it, why pay for it? There are only so many ways to watch the darling children on holidays and no one really wants to see that drivel outside of you and, on occassion, them. Buy only what you need and this is a decent buy for that. Strengths: Gets the job done. Not too small. Accessories are widely available. Weaknesses: Doesn't appear to be constructed as well as I'd like for applications such as backpacking. I'd be very concerned about dropping it or allowing children to use it given how delicate the view screen feels. Similar Products Used: Canon Optura, Sony, Sharp Customer Service: Hey, I bought it used. The JVC web site did provide me with all the software and manuals. That's all I needed.
