Customer Review: Good buy
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this camcorder from Fry's for $1080*** including tax as a new year gift for my parents. I tried it right after I received the package and I just love it. Everything is great except the battery included in the package can last only 30 min which is too short for a camcorder with 30G memory. So I bought a data battery from JVC ($126), and then the camcorder became perfect. I made the choice between Sony SR100 and JVC505. Sony has a better lense (Carl Zeiss) I have to say, but JVC has 3CCD(!!!) and a much higher resolution.I prefer the cool silver color of SR100 to the black 505, but 100 is too big, even longer than your palm. Besides, if you have large fingers as my father's, you'll not like the touch-screen from Sony although it is fancy (or you can borrow the pen from your NDS). Other features: sound effect is good, LCD is bright and adjustable, low light recording not a problem if you understand the instruction book, buttons are easy to use, 30 G is wonderful for travelling without a laptop on you hand, it is very good to watch what you record on a wide-screen TV. By the way, sony just released their new HD camcorder to beat this 505, but, as sony always is and I believe will be forever, it is more expensive than it should be...
Hope this is useful for you. Good luck searching.
