Customer Reviews

Perfect for everyone, novice and below
A friend purchased the camera for his wife, and we used it to record the progress we made in renovating a duplex. Knowing nothing about mini dv's at the time, I was able to pick up this fun little toy and get to recording right away.
I enjoyed it so much that I bought the same model for my wife, who is adverse to technology, and she loves it too.
I've played with other models and brands of recorder, and I still like the JVC 350 because it has fairly high quality coupled with intuitive controls and camera functions that do all the work. I also got it for a great price compared to other brands with similar features.

Nice little camcorder
I like this camcorder because it is small, lightweight and travels easily. Neat little feature- you can take snapshots while recording video. I'm very happy with the optical zoom. The only downfall- no separate charger for the battery so the camera has to be plugged in to charge it, which is very limiting. On the upside- it charges quickly.

Great
Being a camcorder novice I liked this item. Fit my needs for recording family memories. Just recently got it for trip to WDW. So nice and compact, a delight to carry around since it fit in one of my purse pockets. At the end of a day @ Disney World you appreciate compact & lightweight. Video looks great. Oh and I got it cheaper here @ Amazon.com than @ local Wal-mart.
