Product Description
The GR-D870 comes with a 2.7" 16:9 Widescreen clear LCD monitor that gives you a more realistic visual due to the extended field of vision, that is common in today's flat panel displays. The Clear LCD feature reduces reflections and glare to maintain a clear, visible and bright viewing during outside recording. Zoom right into the action with this powerful 35x optical zoom. The image is magnified optically to eliminate jagged edges. Images can be further enlarged up to 800x when combined with the digital zoom. Or boost light sensitivity for a bright picture even in environments with minimal illumination, always giving you full color, without any distance limitations with the NightAlive feature that also works in both still and video modes. This camcorder also has 3-Dimension Noise Reduction (3D NR) that automatically provides a more accurate noise reduction. The video noise is reduced by 30% in low light for a 2dB improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio. End result, you get a brighter picture with less noise, even in low light. Enjoy saving onto SD memory cards (optional) to easily transfer to PC. The latest feature is JVC's exclusive Live Slow feature that makes it possible to record slow motion images and play them back with real-time sound. Live Slow is ideal for playing back and enjoying hard to see moments because the speed is one quarter of normal playback speed.

1 out of 5 stars crap   July 12, 2008

i had an inferior model of a jvc camcorder and it was stolen. i got this one off amazon to replace it, as it was less money than what i originally paid for my previous cam about a year or more before.
well, i used it like twice and then out of nowhere it starts giving me an error message every time i put a tape in and popping them back out with the dv cassette's tape mangled and tore up one.
i did some quick searching online about the problem and it turns out its a fairly common problem with this model and similar types. and the only way to fix it is actual hands on repair/part replacement.
so i got a sony instead.
stay away from this one.

This would happen to be one of the more easier to use camcorders that I have had. When compared to similar on the market this is a very well priced unit with all the functions that are buit in. Simple to use, simple to set up, oh so simple! (And about time!)
