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

The Everio MG21 hard disk camcorder gives you up to 25 hours of recording. The large capacity internal hard disk drive means you can record a high amount of video without a second thought. You can record 7 hours of DVD-quality video on a 20GB hard disk. Additional modes let you extend recording time even further. This clever camcorder is able to carry out high-quality photos and superb video recordings thanks to its sensor CCD of 800.000 pixels combined with the exceptional optical zoom of 32x. The GZMG-21 boasts a sleek ergonomic design, as compared to traditional digital camcorders. The raised compactness and introduction of a broad anti-reflecting 2.5 inch LCD screen makes for comfort and irreproachable use. Equipped with an automatic light and a connection audio/video it allows you to watch and transfer your recordings to an external source. The GZ-MG21 is also provided with a remote control. 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 »

Enter JVC's Everio line with the confidence that comes from owning a JVC.

Pros Full of features, versatile storage, 32x optical zoom.
Cons Entry-level quality only, stills look like cell-phone camera could have taken them.
Recommended it? Yes

This is JVCs entry level HDD (hard disk digital) camcorder. It can get you into the latest in digital camcorder media at about medium cost with somewhat of a trade-off in quality.

This camera requires no tapes or discs, but does come with a flash memory card slot which can be loaded with... Read full review »

JVC's everio is horrible

bypat21 Jan 8, 2007
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Hard drive, no tapes needed, size of camera
Cons Low light video, battery life, Software included
Recommended it? No

For the money I paid, I should have got an excellent camera. Low light videos look horrible. Everyone was dark during playback. The software that comes with the camera is horrible, too. It is difficult to use and if you own a Mac, forget it. You need to download another program just to download the... Read full review »
