JVC GZ-MG575EK Hard Disk Camcorder
JVC 40GB HDD Camcorder
Customer Review: Great piece of kit but
I brought this for my holiday, as we were going to be away for month, we wanted something with great features and a hard drive and we found this. It’s fantastic, easy to use and the sound quality is excellant. However when you download the video clips on to your hard drive it saves it as .mod not .MPEG which most software system uses. Wish life was simple, it took me days to find converters, so if you now how to change the format then this is great, if not then you will be having a hardtime.
Customer Review: good improvement
ive owned 2 everios and bought this one as i like the improvements to handling over the previous models.
5mp photos sounds great but reality is in good light they are v good but become noisy in low light unless you are in flash range.
The battery lasts 10mins longer than old model and the lens cover is handy too although manual.
No complaints on video quality but dont expect a professional camera as this is an excellent everyday camera with good 6×4 photos.
Manual control is excellent and also has a mic shoe and input with a small light too.
see reviews on usa gz555 version on camcorderinfo.net.
Im happy with this product.

Customer Review: Oh deary me.
When I first saw this camera on Amazon I honestly thought I’d found the dream camera. The price was good for the features that were offered. However, I soon realised that the JHV GZ-M21E was far from a dream-like… As you’ll have read in other reviews, Amazon messed up and like many other customers I was sent a European version. The plug didn’t fit with any of the voltage converters I tried, but luckily I had access to a shaver socket and used that to charge. We did call them, but - long story short; Amazon’s customer service is pathetic. This is Amazon’s fault so I won’t base the product rating on my bad experience, but unfortunately for JVC, this small piece of awful machinery hardly does itself justice as it is. The video quality isn’t great, but I only used it for YouTube videos so I didn’t complain. The focus was awful - when holding the camera perfectly still it would spontaneously blur, ruining many movies. I’m not sure what gave JVC the fantastic idea of making the camera record into some obscene unique JHV-created format which is only compatible with their FOUL and PESTILENT software, but I can only assume copius amounts of crack. The worst thing about this camera? The battery life. It was awful. I got about 2-3 hours of battery life at a time, even if I just left it on without recording. Conveniently, there was a catalogue of JVC products in the box which included ludicrously priced battery upgrades. And hence, I plan to shout at Amazon until I get a refund, and then buy myself a Sony HD Handycam, the likes of which I’ve heard endless streams of positivity about.
Customer Review: great point and shoot.but grainy photos
i just use it generally on auto mode and just film away and it copes well with most lighting conditions. As a camera it produces pretty poor photos though but then i dont think many camcorders do. The battery life isnt too good but you can easily buy a bigger battery to solve that. Overall i would recommend it as a no fuss camcorder with no tapes or discs to remember.

Customer Review: Caveat Emptor
Whether this product is great or rubbish I have no idea. It was purchased from Pixmania (a non-UK company) via the Amazon marketplace. It arrived poorly packaged but on time. It showed clear signs of having been used - opened box, crumpled packaging, loose items etc. All of the instructions were in French and German but then again they would be - the item was an NV-GS230EF not the NV-GS230EB as advertised - never intended for the UK market. Pixmania insist that their own website makes it clear that the instructions are not in English (indeed if you look hard enough at their massive site you will find this somewhere). I remember buying it through Amazon though, where there is no such mention of non-english documentation. Certainly, there was no mention of second hand goods on either website. Pixmania insist (on their national rate phoneline) that they do not sell second-hand goods but offer no rational explanation as to why the product had clearly been used despite the transit box being sealed. Do I keep it and find out whether it works once I’ve found a download site for the instructions? Do I pay to have it sent back to Pixmania and hope for a refund? Perhaps Pixmania will collect it at their expense and make more effort to let buyers know they are buying goods never intended for the UK market.(!). I’m sure this product is great but I’m going to have to wait to find out. The service has definitely NOT being worth the small savings - buy from the UK or USA !!

Mustek USB Digital Video Camcorder DV5200, Model Number: DV5200 
Customer Review: DV5200
Thought it was about time that I entered the digital age. On seeing this I thought why not get something that does more than just take pictures. It is excellent fun and easy to use. The only down side is that it doesn’t have a flash (it would have got 5 stars if it had) but apart from that I would recommend it. The time between pressing the shutter and taking the picturte isn’t too bad and I quickly got used to it. Well worth the money.
