I have been eyeing a digital video camera for the last few months, not just one particular camera but all of them.

On my first break yesterday at work I decided on a little JVC and asked a co-worker to set it aside for me. I'd stick it in layaway on lunch. Lunch came and I changed my mind on that camera and went to another JVC that has a few more features,

Then on lunch break I decided to heck with layaway and just went ahead and bought it. It's a JVC GR-D270u, far from a top of the line camera, I know, but it's small, light and looked easy to use.

Good gravy, that thing has more doo-dads and gizmos than anything I've ever seen! First thing I need to learn is how to turn it on! Wish me luck!
