JVC Everio Camcorder

So I've been reading some online reviews about my video  camera to see what other people make of it and have  discovered some of its handy functions. It has the ability  to function manually aswell as automatically which  enables me to adjust things such as aperture, exposure  and it has a colour mode function (vivid and natural).  Below is a short clip I filmed of a canal. It was a beautiful  sunset but the colours were quite faded and mute when  I played it back through my camera. So I fiddled with  the brightness and contrast and also adjusted the aperture  which gave me much better results.  My camera can also convert standard film into HD  so you can play better quality footage through your Tv.  This is a valuable function to have at present as more  and more people are buying HD ready Tv's which means  that my camera won't be outdated for a longer period of time.  Also you can upload footage straight onto YouTube from  the camera. Not sure how that works, I think you might  have to have an iLink everio dock which I dont. But this  function is really handy for people who make video diaries  or have documented some event that needs no editing and  can be put online straight away as it cuts out a whole load of  uploading and exporting video to the proper format etc.
