Rating: Summary: JVC sounds Bad Review: I recently purchased the Jvc GR-SXM740U Camcorder and took it on a trip. The picture quality was super. However I was very dissatisfied when I returned home and started to view the movies I had taken. The sound was awful. I filmed some of our movies outdoors and you sort of expect the outdoor sound quality to be less the perfect. But when I watched the indoor movies I could not believe it. Four people in one room and at times three of us could not be heard. It gave me a headache trying to listen to it. Then randomly the camera would just pick up stray noises outside. So beware of this model if you value sound and video.
Rating: Summary: Good Camcorder Good Sound Review: The sound on this camcorder is good. My 12 year old son was able to make a very understandable commentary on his video shoot. The video is very good, even on standard "SP" mode-not S-VHS. I was able to use zoom to follow a cat outdoors at 30+ feet and on playback on a 48" RPTV I could see each of his whiskers very clearly. The controls are not in the most ideal position. The camera has good balance. I feel this a good family use camera with a lot of features to keep it up to date.
