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...

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 GZ-MG70 Hard Disk Camcorder

Advantages: Very easy to use
Disadvantages: none

...effects of surround sound when you watch them back on your system at home. The models lower down the range have lesser quality lens and are not as good value for money. Since you dont need media ie DVD's or tapes this camcorder very good value for money. The GZ-MG70 has a 30GB hard disk which can record for over 7 hours of ultra fine DVD quality, which is near broadcast quality. Or 14 hours of normal quality. It can also be used as a web cam with up to 37.5 hours max recording time. The battery life is comparable with other camcorders, I havent yet run it non stop from full charge to empty in a single go yet. But my brother borrowed it and said it was about the same as his Samsung one. If you cant affrod the JVC GZ-MG70 go for the JVC GZ-MG60 they are the same expept for the recording time, the JVC GZ-MG60 only has a 20GB hard drive wich...

Just Very Cool GZ-MG130

Advantages: excellent picture recording, easy to use, durable, exceptional sound pickup
Disadvantages: the LCD screen can be difficult to see in bright conditions

...Recording those special moments in life have never been easier for me since I bought the JVC GZ-MG130 for £300 (well, £299.99 incl delivery) prior to Christmas. Deciding which camcorder to buy was something of a minefield with so many different models, brands and additional features to take in consideration. A quick comparison between a few of the lower end models drew me away from my a budget purchase and towards the JVC GZ-MG130. The main selling point was not the range of features, it was just because my trusty JVC stereo of 14 years is still going strong, still looks the part in my lounge and has never needed the slightest bit of attention by an engineer. The JVC GZ-MG130 is a digital camcorder which means that it is visibly smaller than many other models as it records to a 30 GB hard disk drive rather than a tape, DVD or memory...

JVC Camcorder

Advantages: Compact and stores seven hours of video
Disadvantages: Slow autofocus

...at his pictures, but it's all still life. It would be good in years to come to look at the pictures and remember but how much better would it be to watch the look on his face when he sees his christmas presents. And better still, watch him take those precious first steps. Ok, so a camera, not good enough anymore. Not when technology is progresing so rapidly. So I invested in a camcorder. The JVC GZ MG57 to be precise. However I hate all the technical stuff, so needed something that was relatively easy to get my head around. Thankfully the whole menu system that the camcorder has going on was easy to get my head around and I got my bearings relatively quick. The menu system provides quick and easy access to the shooting settings e.g shutter speed and scene modes. I was worried about the size of the camcorder though, as I have big hands...

Review of JVC GZ MG57

A year of experience

Advantages: It's not a Sony
Disadvantages: I haven't got the money for a second one

...First impressions was that it was better than I had hoped for! The styling, weight and general appearance was what I expected for £800 (bought November 2007 but I did have to shop around to find one at that price). All the reviews I read about the poor electronic stabilization were right! If you want to hand hold it be prepared for some pretty poor results. Anticipating this I invested in a decent tripod, jib and steadicam (from B Hague's) so I never handhold. The built in stereo mics are okay but thankfully there is a mic input so I use an external Rode stereo videomic which produces great results. The ability to plug in an external screen makes using the jib simple. When I read the spec and saw the 60 Gb HDD I thought I'd never use all that ... last weekend I was left with just 20 minutes of space left at full HD recording...
