TRV905 Vs TRV80

Why not the TRV70 then or perhaps the JVC GR-DV3000 that does really well in low light compared to the TRV70/80.

It can be had at Buydig.com for $695

Yeah. That's a pretty good deal for the older DV3000. I don't think the extra cost for the TRV70 is worth the slight improvement in resolution. However, up here in Canada, the DV3000 costs more than the TRV70---no wonder they can't sell these JVCs up here.

Hi guys
I eventually got the TRV80 and the quality of the video is excellent. My cousin has the TRV950 and we did shoot the same scene, in auto mode, for both cameras and compared the two videos taken. I must tell you that there was no difference whats so ever. We had other guys around to ask opinions and they couldn't say whitch camera was the better one.

My parents can't tell the difference between VHS and DVD.

Auto mode? Geez..

What kind of TV did you use? Surely you didn't compare LCD side screens.. :)

Hi

The TV that I have and tested both cameras is the Sony KE-42MR1

When I say "auto mode" I mean that the exposure and focus were set in automatic setting.
