JVC GRD70 MiniDV Camcorder with 2.5" LCD, 16x Optical Zoom and SD/MMC Card Slot

Amazon.com Product Description

The compact JVC GR-D70 is a stylish, go-anywhere digital video camcorder that incorporates all JVC's key camcorder technologies. This entry-level MiniDV camcorder is 50 percent smaller than previous models and features a 16x optical zoom, picture stabilization, a digital still mode, JVC's Night Alive feature, and a 2.5-inch LCD.

Optics & Audio
The GR-D70 offers a 680,000 CCD with 520 lines of horizontal resolution. Combined with JVC's super-hi-band processor, you'll be assured of capturing crisp, clear video. Equipped with a 16x optical zoom, the GR-D70 also features a 700x digital zoom that allows you to zoom in for incredible close-ups. You can also zoom in on any part of an image during playback with the 44x pinpoint zoom.

The GR-D70 also features PCM digital stereo sound in either 12-bit or 16-bit options. The 16-bit mode offers one set of stereo tracks and achieves the same quality as CD, while the 12-bit mode creates two sets of stereo tracks. Audio dub is possible when recorded in 12-bit mode.

Digital Stills
The still mode is capable of capturing crystal-clear still images of up to 1,024 x 768 pixels. The images are stored onto an optional MMC or Secure Digital memory card. You can also record still images onto the video cassette with a "shutter" sound effect in full frame or pin-up mode.

MiniDV Format
MiniDV is the preferred format for personal and broadcast-quality video, highly regarded for its high audio and image quality. With up to 520 lines of horizontal resolution and minimum color noise, MiniDV delivers a 20 percent clearer picture than analog camcorder formats. This is all delivered on a cassette that's 1/12th the size of a standard VHS tape. A MiniDV tape offers digital recording time of 2 full hours--20 times the capacity of a CD.

Customer Reviews:

Low quality, short lifespan.......2006-04-28

Low light image is sub standard, but what can you expect for the price. Sadly the CCD blew up 30 days after 1 year warranty expired. It will be cheaper to replace than fix.

I'm not buying another JVC to be sure!

JVC = Garbage.......2006-04-14

Don't waste your time on this junk. Mine blew up just out of warranty with a tape loading problem. Repairing is almost as expensive as purchasing a new model.

I've checked other JVC problems on the net; broken CCDs, reset problems, etc. Stay away from JVC; I wish I did.

By the way, JVC is terrible in low light compared to my 10 year old Sony 8mm.

Good Camcorder until "condensation" problem.......2006-02-27

I have had this camera for about 2 years. Worked great until about 6 months ago. When i would turn the camera on I would get a message that said "STOP CONDENSATION" it would last for a little while then the camera would work OK. As time went on, the message appeared more often and lasted longer. Now, it's hard to even use the camera, it works 1 out of every 25 times i turn it on. JVC won't respond to e-mail's and i have done everything to fix it that i have read on the internet. I cannot take it to a service center because they want $100 to just look at it and i think I can get a brand new one that hopefully will work for about $200. But you better believe it won't be a JVC.

JVC products have serious CCD sensor flaw.......2005-10-18

I owned a JVC GR-D33US camcorder for a little over a year and the CCD sensor just went out on it and it gives a "lens cap" error message even with lens cap OFF. Not a good product if it only lasts for a little over a year!

This camera is not worth rating.......2005-01-14

This camera is a piece of Junk. Battery was gone after 60 days. Spent 8 months trying to locate a battery. Now unit stays in unusable "Unit in Safeguard Mode". If anyone out there has an answer for this problem, please let me know. hosdoc@mynewroads.com

super sound from a small package.......2003-05-19

when I first got this cd player, I didnt really like it untill I popped in a cd and put on the headphones.OMG, the sound Quality is very good and if you turn on the bass, it sounds as if youre in a concert hall!

I can run and jump and hide and still..........2002-04-20

no skipping!

Fab compact shape! Great sound for the money. Some extra kooky features I still can't figure out but hey, it looks impressive.

The color is pretty close to black, which for me is dandy, if you want electric prune you'll be sad to be sure.

I highly advise another pair of headphones, those swoop ones, the headphones that come with the player ae fine but if you need to use this for the treadmill etc...become oh so cumbersome.

Great for the money though!

it works good but.......2002-01-25

The head phones broke within a week!

its ok.......2002-01-09

this player is ok. i like the skip protection. It holds together pretty good. compared to my other one.

good audio.......2001-12-28

I must admit the sound is great, the features are plentiful and the price was good. The only complaint I have is that the belt clip broke off the first hour it was being used. I tried to call Philips for 3 days to order a replacement part but their message is "Call back later, we are exceptionally busy now."

Product Description

The Samsung CSN2077DV combines a 20" flat screen TV with a DVD and a CD player all in one. The DynaFlat anti-distortion, anti-glare flat picture tube is easier on the eyes with less reflections and distortions normally associated with curved TVs. With a Samsung CSN2077DV here are no complicated DVD player hook ups. Side speakers offer a full rich sound. There is the option of connecting Dolby Digital optical outputs or audio jacks to a stereo system for the more adventurous. The Samsung TV/DVD/CD is perfect for the bedroom, den, or any other room where you want to relax pop in a DVD or watch some TV.

Amazon.com Product Description

Small spaces don't have to preclude big fun. Maximize both with Samsung's compact CSN2077DV 20-inch combination TV/DVD player. No tangled wires or complicated connections--just plug it in and sit back to watch TV, play movies, or listen to music. Whether you're furnishing a kitchen, bedroom, dorm, or apartment, this feature-packed set is a model of simplicity and elegance.

The CSN2077DV's anti-glare, geometrically accurate DynaFlat picture tube minimizes contrast-killing ambient light reflections and offers up to 600 lines of resolution, depending on the source. An onboard digital comb filter, meanwhile, enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt).

A shadow mask is a thin sheet of perforated metal behind the screen that restricts electron flow, each hole in the sheet corresponding to a single pixel. This set's Invar mask uses an alloy that's especially resistant to the high temperatures generated by the electron beam, letting in a brighter, clearer picture.

Inconspicuous side-panel audio/video terminals simplify connection with a camcorder or a VCR, and rear-panel AV input and output jacks accommodate more permanent hookups with other AV gear (including an RF terminal for use with older VCRs and cable boxes). To get the most from your DVD soundtracks, use the set's optical digital-audio output to route Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround signals to a compatible AV receiver and multichannel speaker system.

Several picture and sound modes let you customize the set's performance for your program material, and side-mounted speakers offer full sound with t3 watts per channel.

The DVP-FX701 is an incredibly portable DVD player that can be used just about anywhere. Take it on a plane, train, or automobile - the player is small enough to fit in a purse or briefcase. It features 16: 9 aspect ratio, 7" screen and up to 3 hour battery life. The DVP-FX701 even comes with a headphone Y splitter, so two people can listen at once. A DC car charger is included for convenient battery recharging.

Amazon.com Product Description

Finally, a way to turn downtime into prime time. Sony's stylish, slender DVP-FX701 offers a 7-inch widescreen TFT liquid-crystal display whose 16:9 aspect ratio matches that of your favorite feature films. Built-in stereo speakers offer virtual surround for a more spacious effect, and the unit plays CDs, too--leave the screen down, plug your headphones in, and crank it up (but not too loud). The DVP-FX701's 3-hour lithium-ion battery ensures uninterrupted viewing of all but the longest movies, and an included AC power adapter lets you watch from the hotel room--you can even plug it into a TV on the road or at home through the unit's minijack S-video and composite-video outputs.

Use the player to listen to your MP3 CDs and to view slideshows of your most recent or most precious digital photos--perfect for those infrequent visits to mom and dad. A compact remote control affords ready access to the device from up to several feet away, and its brushed-aluminum finish lends an air of refined elegance.

Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output (through a .125-inch minijack-to-Toslink optical cable, not supplied) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. The outputs are switchable as AV inputs, too, in case you want to use the screen as a monitor for a camcorder or video-game device.

The resume feature automatically restarts playback from the point where you last stopped a disc. The model measures a mere 7.4 inches in length and 5.9 inches wide and a mere inch thick (without the battery). Headphones are not included.

What's in the Box
DVD player, remote control (RM-D163A), 2 AA batteries, one 7.4V lithium-ion battery, an RCA-to-minijack analog audio/composite-video interconnect, an AC adapter, and a user's manual.

Customer Reviews:

I Love this machine!.......2007-06-21

I got this for Christmas 3 years ago and have been using it almost every day since them for over 2 hours. The sound quality is not so great in the car, but thats what headphones are for! Mine stopped working the other day though, I wish sony had a better support program though. If anyone knows how to stop the 'No Disc' error, please contact me at [...]

This DVD player is great, even if I got a few errors, but those are easily remedied. The only 2 problems are that there is not volume control on the remote and fast forward/slow buttons on the actual DVD player.

I recommend this DVD player for those who can take care of it and take it on trips, planes, and for universal use in the home environment.

Not worth the price of admission.......2006-09-14

I got this item as a gift and it worked for only one DVD. When I tried to charge it up again later, the charge wouldn't take. I sent it back to Sony and two weeks later, was told that a new battery would cost $225 (and no, they wouldn't waiver on it despite the fact it was a gift and I had no receipt). I'm not going to waste any more time with Sony and will look elsewhere for a replacement. I hope Amazon yanks this product from their site.

Just stopped working.......2006-09-06

I have had the player for approximately one year and hardly ever used it. I have played about 10 DVD's on it and when I got it out to use it the other day I started watching a movie and the screen all of a sudden froze. I tried to push fast forward, pause, and play and the player did nothing. I turned it off and back on and now all I get is No Disc or Disc Error on the screen. I believe the player should have been capable of playing at least a thousand DVD's before a failure. I kept the player in a case in my closet so it wasn't setting out in direct sunlight or anything. I am very disappointed in this product and have written Sony about it. I will have to wait and see how well they back the products they sell.

Pile of Garbage.......2006-05-14

I've had this unit 10 months. Firstly, you can't use it without a battery, even if its connected the mains. What a joke. So my first battery wouldn't recharge, and Sony charged me $258 for a new battery. Half what I paid for the whole DVD.
That battery lasts 5 hours, and the system turns off. It won't recharge either. So today, they tell me my power adapter needs exchanging, and thats $158. I tell them to shove it, I'm never buying another piece of junk from this company ever again. I read they are struggling to prevent from going bankrupt. With this terrible service, I'll be happy if they never sell anything to anyone ever again.

A piece of JUNK!!!!.......2006-01-20

I purchased this item a few months ago, it is now a very expensive paper weight. It doesn't read any DVDs I have and getting it repaired is not even an option. I'm not surprised to see that others have had a similar history with this product. I'm surprised AMAZON has not pulled this product from their offerings.
