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 »

Pros Price, weight, convenience, short learning curve, handling, quality of videos
Cons Battery life limited if you plan to do duration videos.  Buy a backup for security.
Recommended it? Yes

The price range for budget camcorders has changed much recently. The MG630, released on March 1st of 2009 as a member of JVC's Everio G Series line, is in that group or reasonably priced electronics.

Purchasing a camcorder today isn't as simple and straightforward as it once was, but I... Read full review »

Pros Excellent video quality and sound, easy to use software, very user-friendly camcorder.
Cons Battery life for the supplied battery is low, only lasts about 90 minutes
Recommended it? Yes

I've always been a technology nut with anything from computers to iPods to digital cameras but I've never bought a camcorder until recently. I had a trip scheduled to Orlando, Florida for a week and I knew there were things I was going to do there that I would love to have memories other than my... Read full review »
