After a year's use of my JVC GR-AXM18U video camera, which was a gift from my husband's parents, I got the "Safeguard Mode" message that suggests you remove the battery and try again. So in desperation I did a google search for "jvc vhs camcorder safeguard mode message" and have spent a good half hour reading that everyone else in the world who owns a JVC camera has the same problem, and that there's no way to fix it. After a lot of expense and trouble, including purchasing a new, bigger battery, I put the camera on the shelf for another year. Today is my little girl's third birthday, and I really wanted to use the camera to memorialize the event. The best solution is tossing it in the trash and buying a new one.I just want to shout to the world that JVC is a defective brand, the company should be sued, and there is an online group attempting to do just that. As for me, I will NEVER buy anything from JVC again, and if I can save a few other buyers from the same disappointment and expense, then that's the best I can do with this situation.
it is a good product a friend o mine liked it and a had to sell it to himso I'm looking for another.
I bought this recorder for a gift (used). It has no volume on it, so I am seriously disappointed.it was DAMAGED and I am sure the person who sold it to me knew this. I am very very very unhappy.
neat. it's very convenient.
i knew i had to look for a new one, but wasn't sure about digital ones. i was afraid that i would need a DVD burner to make DVDs and did not want to store all the videos on my hard drive, because i could lose them any time (you never know when a virus may strike).
my old camera was getting worn out. i love this camera.
anyway, i almost lost hope, thinking that vhs cameras are long in the past. luckily, i was wrong.
it has a great screen, so you see what your taping, and you can flip it over to tape yourself. i would definitely recommend this product to people like me, who like some things old-fashioned way.
As expected it is bigger that the digital one, but it is slimmer and lighter than our last VHS-C model.The instructions are a little more complicated than the last model. My husband and I bought a new digital camcorder last August, but have never adapted to it, as it is so difficult to view the films. The zoom button is very conveniently placed. We had owned several VHS-C in the past. This is a welcome return to a familiar format. We have only tested it and the quality of picture and sound seem good. We are about to go on a trip and see the results.
