JVC Everio GZMG21EK Camcorder.

Advantages: Small, easy to use, uses a hard drive so no tape or disc changes
Disadvantages: Supplied battery life, difficult to keep steady on high zoom

...I was looking for a camcorder to use primarily for holidays and family moments. I have bought this camcorder for that use only. when you buy the JVC Everio GZMG21EK you get the following items:- The camcorder itself, A battery and charger, a lens cap, Shoulder strap, instructions & guarantees, AV cables, a USB cable, a remote control (with battery) and a disc of software. ( I bought mine over the internet so couldnt haggle in the shop) The camcorder is silver in colour and i cant believe how small it actually is. It fits perfectly into my hand and is not heavy at all. The camcorder uses a 20 gb hardrive as the recording medium rather than the tapes or discs alot of the other types do. So one big advantage is not having to go out and buy a load of tapes or discs to record on. You can record up to 25hrs of recording...

JVC Everio GZ MG30

Advantages: Hard disc recording - no tapes
Disadvantages: low battery time

...I was sceptical - read lots of reviews that were non commital about the quality of the camera. Never having had a digital camcorder before, I did a huge amount of background research and that just left me not wanting anything with tapes or DVDs that need changing, editing or run out at the innoportune moments! So, I got onto ebay and got myself (for 250 GBP!!!!) from the US, a brand new Everio. After paying import duty (caveat emptor) I got it and most impressive it is too Small is the first thing that you notice - small, but it fits my hand perfectly, and my wife's hand too (and she has little hands). It feels like a good extension of your arm and is not at all heavy, even after some extensive use. Ease of USE - without reading a manual at all (what a man!) I managed to figure out the way to record and then to review what I...

JVC Everio GZ-MC200

Advantages: No tapes, and it's TINY !
Disadvantages: "Only" one hour on an expensive 4GB microdrive...

...At last, a review from me of something you can actually buy new ! The JVC Everio GZ-MC200 records your digital video footage on a 4 GB microdrive, a mini removable hard disk instead of a tape. Take good care of this microdrive - it's a mini hard disk - as replacements are quite expensive. The 4 GB microdrive will let you shoot about one hour of video in MPEG-2 compression at a resolution of 720x576 pixels and a data rate of 8.5 MB/sec (in Ultra Fine mode), more if you turn the quality down. In addition, the Everio has a 2.12 megapixel CCD sensor (0.28 inches) that can produce still photographs at four different resolutions, with the maximum resolution 1600x1200 pixels. This resolution produces more good quality photos when printed at 4"x6". You can fit 4,500 two-megapixel still images or five hours of audio recording...

JVC MG142E - What a cracker

Advantages: Lightweight, Easy to use, Lots of built in memory
Disadvantages: None so far

...I have just brought the JVC MG142E and wanted to let you all know what a great little camcorder it is! First I should probably give you the technical stuff!! 40GB Inbuilt Hard Drive 34 x Optical Zoom 800 x Digital Zoom 2.7" Widescreen LCD Screen Memory Card slot for SD card Includes Image Stabiliser Night Vision Now, I am not exactly what you call an expert in technology but I found this little machine so great to get started with, after charging the battery for the first time, which takes about 1 1/2 hours, it is very easy to get to a point where you are recording. The first time you switch it on it starts up in Auto mode, meaning the focus, screen brightness etc is correctly selected for you. You can easily switch to manual mode but I have not been brave enough yet!! It prompts you to enter the date/time setting...

Review of JVC Everio GZ-MG175EK

  Damn, I Shoulda Brought A Laptop

Advantages: Great looking camera, amazing zoom, amazing footage
Disadvantages: No instruction manuel, very expensive and maybe not worth the money

...of someone who doesn?t know too much about camcorders so sorry there isn?t much on the techy side of things because seriously I would have had no idea. I think the JVC Everio is a great little camcorder and I think that if you want a basic camcorder then the Everio is for you. If you are looking for a camcorder which is light, compact but still does a good job then this camera is most definitely for you, but the price is what scared me off a little and still does, because I really don?t need the camera at the moment and I really wish I had spent the money on something more productive. However I have another filming session on Monday, and I will be taking my lovely camcorder with me to see what footage I can get out of it, and see if it?s better than the crappy one that my teachers been boasting about. Overall if you have the cash spare...

JVC HD Camcorder

Advantages: Light, easy to use, good quality video and still, easy to transfer to/from computer
Disadvantages: Does not come with a bag

...I have bought this JVC camcorder over an year ago and I am completely satisfied with it. JVC is a good brand name and their lenses are of top quality. The company pioneered the HD camcorders.This camcorder is very light and handy and easy to use. 20GB hard disk is more than enough to store all your photos and videos taken in one vacation. This is a very user friendly device. The 4-way (up, down, left, right) menu selector switch allows you to browse through various settings (like brightness, aperture etc.).Apart from that, there are main mode selector (still or video) switches. All you need to do is to select the appropriate still/video mode and press the shutter. The LCD screen shows you what you are capturing. If you are not satisfied, you can delete it with the press of a button other wise save it in the 20GB hard disk! HD...

Review of JVC Everio GZ-MG130E

Great lightweight camcorder, ideal for home movies

Advantages: Light weight, easy-to-use interface, low price, good picture quality
Disadvantages: Short battery life, not very compatible with Mac, bundled software is substandard

...of the proprietary MPEG-2 format. * It's around 300g (about 11 ounces) so is very lightweight. * USB 2.0 slot for transferring files to your computer. * Touch screen menu navigation. My experience I was attracted to the JVC GZ-MG330 camcorder because I use a Mac and it was supposedly compatible with my Operating System. The price was quite low in comparison to other camcorders, and it received generally good reviews. Unfortunately, my own experience hasn't been fantastic - I've had a number of compatibility issues on the Macintosh, which seriously downgraded picture quality. I discovered that at least part of the problem was related to video interlacing - the video had to be de-interlaced when converted from .MOD to another format to prevent horizontal lines appearing. If you are using a Mac, I recommend you look for another camcorder. Video...
