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

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.
