DO NOT GET JVC, though. They are the worst hard disk cams on the market. Whew. I got SONY and love it.

I bought an extra battery and it lasts up to 10 hours.

It has a ONE TOUCH dvd record deal. You hook it up to the computer by its "shoe" into which it fits, and after the software is installed, one touch of a button will burn a dvd on your dvd burner. Even makes MENUS!
I have a Sony too...one thing I hate about it though is that "shoe"...if you lose it or it breaks...good luck. I always have extra cables around.

Another drawback on my model is no light
