Description
The GR-DVF10 camcorder is just what you need! One of the model's standout features is its 16x optical zoom - that's a record in the DV camcorder world! Other nice pluses are the 2.5-inch swiveling LCD and built-in speaker, both of which allow convenient playback in the field. The GR-DVF10 also has a built-in light with an auto-on function for shooting in dim conditions. The GR-DVF10's serial-snapshot mode emulates the motor drive found on professional 35mm cameras, enabling you to take multiple shots in rapid succession. If you're using a VCR to copy your raw footage into some sort of order, the remote control included with the GR-DVF10 gives you access to some automatic editing functions to help streamline the process.

great camcorder but insufficient information comes with it.

I've had my jvc model grdvf10 camcorder for over two years and have used it a lot and like it a lot. I do have a complaint though. Recently I decided to figure out how to hook it up to my computer which the salesman assured me I can do and which the instruction book indicates is doable. Well they're both right but neither of them told me it takes an accessory costing [more money] to make the hookup. That the salesman didn't tell me this and that the instruction booklet doesn't indicate it is avery misleading and I am not at all happy about it.
No 1394/Firewire Capability
[ Posted: 2000-07-11 ]
Older model came out just prior to 1394 standard. Lots of features, many of dubious value. RCA-style jacks are the only way to get video (analog only) to your computer for editing, limiting its usefulness as a digital camera. Included accessories are just gizmos that don't help the editing process. If you need digital AND want to edit with your computer, buy a camera that has 1394 capability. Otherwise, spend your money on Hi8 with more available features.
A average, normal cameracord

The JVC GR-DVF10 lets you take still photographs in a number of formats, from simple snapshots to borders and even multiple thumbnails. If you want to download and edit your digital still images and video on a computer, however, you have to purchase a separate video capture card first.
Good

Overall the camcorder was easy to learn to use. The quality of the tape was good. The biggest problem was (and still is)in tranfering the still pictures into computer and printing them, because the necessary accessories were not available in stores. The company was not very heplful when contacted. I wish the accessories would be included with the product.
