This camcorder is wonderful, you can burn your video to a DVD but in high definition as if it were blue-ray DVD format but in AVCHD is the best thing seen so far and I recommend buying 100%
My brother has a sony with the same features and this JVC is much better to have better capture color and lighting is even clearer than with their own eyes.

Very Nice 1080p output at 60 frames per second. Wife said the picture looks great on our 1080p plasma. Regular HDMI output. Also comes with Comp video cables. We love this thing, great picutre, good sound, and easy to use. Fits in the Palm of my hand, weighs nothing...1 pound or something. Slightly larger than a soda can. 120 GB drive eqauls some 15 + hours of HD recording, more than enough. battery lasts about a 1 1/2 hours on HD record with the light on sometimes and moving around.

Low light recording is weak, picture turns grainy when in low light. Outdoors and in good light watch out the colors pop.

Image stabilization is poor, but I don't know any different as this is my first camcorder. But walking with a camcorder is not advised when you want a stable picture...you're moving.

Happy I bought, got it for under six hundered.

My camcorder arrived on time and in good condition. I am pleased with the product. This is the second JVC camcorder I have owned. I'm sure the individual that ran off with my old one is happy with it also.
