Summary: shots are nice, but don't expect too much...
Review: I bought it since the 3+ megapixel and the relatively low price is enticing. Admittedly, the picture quality is not bad. But the battery runs out in a couple of minutes if you turn the LCD on. Don't expect it will do any better with the LCD off, as the body of the camera will always be warm (hot?) as you turn on the power. It's not bad for your hands in the winter days. But how can I endure it as the battery will die in less than one hour, or after you take 10 or 15 pictures? Be aware that the retail price for the rechargable battery is no less than ... bucks!

Summary: Great Camera!
Review: I bought this camera while I was on a ship supporting "Operation Enduring Freedom", I wouldn't have anything else ever! I have never been disappointed with it ever. it can only use up to 64 Meg memory and using the lowest resolution it gives you 690 pictures to take. it comes with a 8 meg card so you can take 84 pictures.

Summary: Only Lasted one year
Review: I purchased this camera exactly one year ago last week and the LCD screen went out. I called the local JVC repair and was told that it would be around 400.00 to repair(way not worth it). The pictures were decent while it lasted but I did not like the design and it was difficult to use.

Summary: good image quality/price
Review: This camera takes excellent photos, and has a lot of nice features, especially for manual settings. It comes with an 8 MB SmartMedia card, so plan on moving up to 32 or 64 MB (max). Also, the battery does not last very long, especially when the LCD is on. An extra battery is essential, and costs around sixty dollars. Overall, I am satisfied with the purchase.

Summary: good image quality/price
Review: This camera takes exellent pictures indoors and outdoors. I have printed out 8x10 pictures without editing, they come out very nice and with help of a photo editing software, the pictures are the best I've seen in 8x10 size. Compared to same size photos from Kodak 4900 (4 MP) the pictures from JVC are a lot better (using the same printer). I'm using Windows XP, have no problem downloading to computer (very fast).
I'm returning it though due to missing battery.

Summary: Excellent product in a small package (& price)!
Review: This is an excellent camera from JVC! It takes pictures in 6 formats (up to 2048x1024), stores the images in smartmedia cards (so you can store the pictures of a whole vacation in different cards) up to 128MB and you can download to a PC/Mac by USB (piece of cake!). If ...your intentions are just catching family and friends at a REASONABLE price: don't look any further! this is IT!
