Customer Review: Camcorder
I read a lot of the other reviews before buying this camera, which was a BIG help. Just got back from Hawaii and using the new camcorder for two week and the movies it makes are UNBELIEVABLE. A relative that went on the trip also bough a HD camcorder (different brand) and we played our different movies back on the same TV and this camcorder provided better clarity. When I looked at their camcorder I thought OH, OH, because it was a lot heavier, but overall this unit was better.

Trying to think of a negative to provide and cannot think of any.
Customer Review: C681 is DEAD ON - AMEN!!!
I agree 100% with previous reviews - I tested, side-by-side, the 255, the new 330, and the new 730. Hands-down, under every possible scenario and lighting condition, the older 255 is BY FAR SUPERIOR. C681’s review is 100% dead on.

See my review under GZ-MG330 for full details.

BUY THE 255 over any of the newer JVCs - none offer the larger f1.2 lens, and it IS the difference!!!
