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 »

HD Camcorder for Under $200? No Way!

byrbinck Mar 20, 2010
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Small and inexpensive.
Cons So lightweight can be hard to take steady videos without a tripod.
Recommended it? Yes

Yes way! 

Introduction
Every now and then you run across a product that you think just couldn't possibly be as advertised.  When I read about the Aiptek HD camcorders I thought how in the world could this be a serious camcorder.  So looking first at the 720p version it was... Read full review »

Over all Better than expected.

Pros Simple Setup, Excellent Picture Quality, Image Stabilization
Cons Poor Sound, Bad in Low Light
Recommended it? Yes

After some heavy web surfing, viewing of samples via YouTube clips on the web I finely took the plunge and ordered this little bugger. Now that I’ve had it for a while to try out I can give it a good recommendation, if you’re looking for an inexpensive video camera that is.
