JVC GRDF450U MiniDV Camcorder w 15x Optical Zoom

JVC GRDF450U MiniDV Camcorder w 15x Optical Zoom by JVC $289.95 At Amazon on 4-3-2012.

Super High-Band Processor records at 520 lines horizontal resolution 30-percent less noise with 3D noise reduction technology 2.5-inch LCD monitor for clear, bright views during outdoor shooting New F1.2 super bright lens with 15x powerful optical zoom Live Slow feature records in slow-motion mode and plays back with real-time sound From the Manufacturer JVC GR-DF450US The Ultra-Compact Series' Low Light Plus uses an f1.2 aspherical super bright lens, which offers 2.3 times the brightness of an f1.8 lens and 1.8 times the brightness of an f1.6 lens. That performance is enhanced by JVC's 3D noise reduction that delivers a 2dB improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio and reduces video noise by approximately 30 percent. Flicker is eliminated and color reproduction is improved. At the top of the Ultra-Compact Series is the GR-DF550, which uses JVC's Megabrid engine that separately processes video and still signals, providing optimal processing for each. Megabrid technology assures high sensitivity and a high signal-to-noise ratio for video and clear, high resolution progressive still images. Both new JVC camcorder series feature a new design that makes them easy to take along and easy to use. The Ultra-Compact series features a unique new design that combines a compact camera body with a handgrip that is ideally sized to be comfortable and secure to hold. All new JVC Mini DV camcorders feature the one-touch convenience of the new data battery function that displays battery power and calculates remaining recording time with the power on or off to prevent users from running out of power during mid-shooting. Also, to make shooting easier, JVC's Clear-View LCD monitor suppresses diffusion of internal light to deliver a brighter, clearer image, and also reduces reflection and glare from external light so that images are always clearly visible even when shooting outdoors in bright sunlight. For superior image quality, all JVC Mini DV camcorders feature a super high-band processor that restores the high-band components of the luminance signal to ensure a crisp, clear picture. Advanced models include a 1.33 megapixel CCD for 540 lines of horizontal resolution, while entry-level models feature a 680,000 pixel CCD that delivers 520 lines of resolution. JVC's commitment to image quality is further evidenced in its Mini DV camcorders' ability to capture digital stills with no motion blur. This year all models, with the exception of the entry level GR-D250 and GR-DF430, offer a progressive shutter that allows stills to be captured by the entire frame, eliminating the blur that occurs when separate fields are combined to form a frame. In addition, the 1.33 megapixel models can capture 27 percent more visual information than 680,000 pixel cameras, providing images 1600 x 1200 pixels, 1024 x 768 pixels, and 640 x 480 pixels. Throughout JVC's Mini DV line, the camcorders are designed with the PC in mind, offering multiple PC connection options, including USB and iLink (IEEE 1394) DV cable. Ultra-Compact Series JVC's Ultra-Compact series Mini DV camcorders are highlighted by a new EZ Grip design and features that include the new Live Slow function and Low Light Plus.

As C. Dvorak noted, I too have had this "Lens Cap" problem with this camera. I think I have shot a grand total of about 45 minutes of video. Also, 2 months ago, I spent ~$150 having some fuses replaced - the camera wouldn't power on. The camera was 9 days out of warranty. It has good quality, and a great set of features... So if it wasn't for the problems that I have had... It would be a nice camera. BUY A SERVICE PLAN! BUY A SERVICE PLAN! BUY A SERVICE PLAN! Have I said it enough? Once more: BUY A SERVICE PLAN!
