JVC's HDD based Everio line has always been promising, but everyone is pining for more room for video, especially in a camera with no way to swap in more media when you're running out of space. JVC is giving up the good stuff with its 30GB GZ-MG37 camera. At the highest quality, the 30GB model records 7 hour of video, with a 680k CCD and a powerful 32x optical zoom. Less

One look at the Aiptek A-HD 720P and you can’t help but think they took the term, “handheld” a bit too literally. Never-the-less, this pint sized camcorder can snap 8 Mega Pixel images and shoot 1280 x 720 high definition video. The Aiptek A-HD 720P is compatible with SDHC flash media giving you 240 minutes of HD record time on an 8 GB memory card. Night Shot enhances image quality when shooting in dark environments and HDTV component output allows you to stream media to the big screen quickly and conveniently. The A-HD 720P also doubles as a personal media player giving you the option to record and store video from any source that has standard RCA outputs. Less

great concept, but the video quality is not

bymrkoder Sep 13, 2006
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great concept! Extremely user-friendly. Powerful zoom. Extra features.
Cons EXPENSIVE! Video quality is questionable. 16:9 files stretched back to 4:3 when played.
Recommended it? Yes

It took me several months of waiting for a good deal on some new technology. I heard enough stories about miniDV, DVD etc. from friends and I think those cameras are not really user-friendly and convenient... Got a good deal at Costco for this one, recently, and just before taking my son to the... Read full review »

Truly Digital Video

byManyacs47 Apr 27, 2007
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros excellent videos, easy file transfer, easy archiving of files
Cons no viewfinder, worthless still camera, proprietary video file format
Recommended it? Yes

The JVC Everio GZ-MG37 is a leap forward in integration for the digital home.

Over the years I had been happy with my previous camcorders, including a now historic 1984 over the shoulder VHS model. I have usually waited for quantum leaps in technological features before making a new... Read full review »

Is That a Camcorder in Your Pocket, or Are You Happy To See Me?

byBruguru Apr 1, 2008
63 Helpfuls 64 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Decent video, very compact, inexpensive, easy to use.
Cons Playback not nearly as good on your HDTV, better for the PC.
Recommended it? Yes

These days, you can find videos of just about anything on You Tube. That's a great thing really, but if you want to upload video to You Tube (or any other site that hosts videos for that matter, including your own) you need a video camera. Most video cameras are too bulky to lug around all the... Read full review »

Pros Inexpensive HD video camera. Takes good stills. Uses SD cards. HD video output.
Cons Grainy mic. ?HD? video is compressed. Manual focus. Plastic (cheap) construction...
Recommended it? Yes

From the makers of the PENCAM! Comes a super inexpensive true HD video camera! sounds too good to be true, eh? Well, it's not a total scam, but it's not George Lucas cinematography either…
