camera

a friend o mine liked it and a had to sell it to him
so I'm looking for another.
Damaged goods
I bought this recorder for a gift (used). It has no volume on it, so I am seriously disappointed...it was DAMAGED and I am sure the person who sold it to me knew this. I am very very very unhappy.
great camera!
my old camera was getting worn out. i knew i had to look for a new one, but wasn't sure about digital ones. i was afraid that i would need a DVD burner to make DVDs and did not want to store all the videos on my hard drive, because i could lose them any time (you never know when a virus may strike). anyway, i almost lost hope, thinking that vhs cameras are long in the past. luckily, i was wrong. i love this camera! it's very convenient. it has a great screen, so you see what your taping, and you can flip it over to tape yourself! neat!!! i would definitely recommend JVC GR-AXM18US Compact VHS Camcorder to people like me, who like some things old-fashioned way!
VHS-C Camcorder
My husband and I bought a new digital camcorder last August, but have never adapted to it, as it is so difficult to view the films. We had owned several VHS-C in the past. This is a welcome return to a familiar format. As expected it is bigger that the digital one, but it is slimmer and lighter than our last VHS-C model.
The instructions are a little more complicated than the last model. The zoom button is very conveniently placed. We have only tested it and the quality of picture and sound seem good. We are about to go on a trip and see the results.
up and down
After finally receiving the item (never got it first time it was sent) my daughter loves it - It was a gift. Unfortunately, Amazon credited my account instead of sending payment to company that it was purchased from. The credit card is closed. What a mess. If this had been the first time I used Amazon, I'd never use it again. Fortunaely, I've shopped Amazon a lot and this is the only really problem order.
