Love It.......2007-12-16

I just love this camcorder. Its very easy to handle and operate. I just recorded my daughters band performance and it turned out just fine. I would recommend this camera to anyone. I also got this camera for only $179 at Circuit City that was a steal. I was able to get a bag and 3 tapes for only $11.99 on Wal-marts website.

Excellent Camcorder for the money.......2007-08-31

This Camcorder offers high value for those needing a casual use camcorder. I find this light-weight cam is well made, delivering decent quality video, and is easy to operate- with both auto and manual modes. It does suffer from the limitations most, if not all, budget 1/6 CCD .68mp camcorders have. It struggles in low-light (bumping up the exposure and/or adjusting white balance helps), and playback on a high resolution or a big screen monitor with only .68mp isn't always flattering. Playback on more normal size screens (like my 27" set) are fine. Outdoors and in regular lighting situations this camera performs very well. Indoor quality suffers without enough light, and I usually use manual mode to improve things.

From the couple of other posts, there may be quality control issues. I have none and it seems to be well made. There are other sites with almost universally positive personal reviews, so hopefully JVC has addressed any issues.

It only has a firewire (no USB), so PC users must have a firewire port if they want to edit. I use a mac and have no issues using iMovie.

Likes: OIS, 34X zoom, 16x9 or 4x3 modes, battery life (about 2 hours), manual control, size, build quality, price.

Dislikes: No DV cable (does anybody include one?), no software, focus issues with low-light and occasionally at the long end of zooms, sub-par audio.

Overall I find the D750 to be a very predictable camcorder, offering good quality videos at an almost steal of a price. I'd recommend this camcorder to anyone, and think it would be a perfect learning tool for someone getting started, or those who travel frequently (small size) or perhaps have higher loss risks (low price).

Dont waste your money on a JVC product!!!!!.......2007-08-07

JVC had a class action lawsuit about their camcorders and even though this one is not on the list, it should be. I bought it new and it has had a problem dropping sound and pixilation on the left side of the screen since I opened the box. It has been into JVC repair FOUR, yes FOUR times since I bought it at the beginning of the summer 2007 and every time it had been returned, the problem persists. JVC has yet to acknowledge that it is a LEMON and insists on repairing it. Their repairs do not work! I dont think they are even doing anything but repacking it and sending it back to me. Its out for repair at JVC as I type this and hopefully they will replace it this time. PLEASE, for your sanity's sake, buy another camcorder besides JVC.

A Lot For Little $$.......2007-07-27

I really like my new camcorder. It's easy to use and gives great quality pictures.

Horrible audio and "photo" runs without pressing a button.......2007-07-02

Not sure if my camcorder is a lemon, but the audio is distorted. Also the photot feature that somes with this camcorder, which allows you to take photos whenever, it is taking photos randomly both while in pause, not recording mode, as well as durning movie recording mode. I will be returning my camcorder immediately and getting something different.

Product Description

Minolta Sport Mini Binoculars feature a slim, lightweight, compact design for the utmost convenience - they fold to fit in a pocket. Plus, an attached carrying cord lets the user wear them comfortably around the neck. Sport Mini Binoculars are perfect for theater-goers, travelers, hiking, sports, birding, or other activities in any weather.Minolta's Sport Mini Binoculars can be used year-round, in virtually any weather conditions. They are specially designed to seal out unexpected rain, mist, snow, and splashes, as well as dust and dirt. Conventional binoculars with normal eye relief do not provide a proper viewing distance for eyeglass wearers, because the focal point of the eye is too close to the eyepiece lens. The result is an incomplete and uncomfortable "tunnel-vision" image when viewing with glasses on. Minolta Sport Mini 8 x 25WR model binoculars solve this problem by featuring a long eye relief, providing full-image viewing for eyeglass wearers.Minolta is world-renowned for high-quality optics and sharp images, and the Sport Mini Binoculars are no exception. These binoculars are crafted with multi-coated optics and aspheric lens elements, so the images you see will be crisp, clear, and distortion-free.The Focusing Guard feature stabilizes the binoculars, allowing the user to make adjustments using only one hand. When holding the binoculars in one hand and adjusting the focus, the binoculars can be stabilized by easily placing the users thumb on the back of the main body to support the weight.The Twisted Eyepiece Cup with the Click-Stop function allows for easy, one-touch adjustments. Theses twisting eyepiece cups help make adjusting the binocular for people with and without glasses simple, and click stops prevent the cups from moving.The Convenient Diopter Adjustment allows the user to adjust the binoculars to his or her own eyesight requirements. Diopter adjustment is independent of focusing, and needs to be set only once for the user.
