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

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 »

Swiss Army Knife of Electronics

byblueshop May 2, 2008
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Does soooo much for relatively little money. Good quality that makes me suspicious.
Cons Battery life could be better. Basically useless if you don't also buy a memory card.
Recommended it? Yes

If you want more than this for the same money, I think you're being unreasonably greedy. (NOTE- MOST of the AIPTEK Camcorder models are VERY similar - this review should apply to several of them.)

OK, it doesn't wash dishes or clean the garage. But there doesn't seem to be much more this... Read full review »
