JVC GR-D270 First Impressions Review - JVC MiniDV Camcorders

 

The GR-D270 is the middle camcorder of the three to be released within this line by JVC. It retails for US$449.95. Interestingly, this is one-hundred dollars less than the previous year's model, the JVC GR-D72. All of this camera's CCD specs are...

Expert Review

 

The JVC GR-D270 is the middle-of-the-road low-end JVC this year, and in our opinion the best value among cheaper JVCs this year. It features the same imager (CCD-Charge Coupled Device) as both of the other lower-end JVCs, the GR-D250 and GR-D295, and...

A Lightweight, in All the Wrong Ways

 

My faithful old Sony Hi8 camcorder bit the dust, so I decided to 'upgrade' to the digital MiniDV, happy that it weighed about half what the old camera did. Well, first off, don't assume (as I did, alas) that 'digital' is going to give you a better...

Lightweight, reasonably simple menus.

Bad colors in all light, awful image at night or indoors, truly abysmal still images.
