Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of JVC Everio GZ-MG330 30 GB Hard Disk Drive Camcorder with 35x Optical Zoom (Red)
Customer Review: Great camcorder for home videos.
Summary: 5 Stars
Pros:
-Small size
-hard drive recording
-bundled software
-ease of backup to hard drive
-included expansion port for SD or micro SD card, I'm not sure which, though I don't know why you'd need it.
-Manual lens cover (some may not like closing and opening manually, but I prefer it, as it is one less thing that can go wrong by getting jammed or something)
-Quality of picture (more than adequate for the average home video taker)
-Auto start-up/shut-down upon opening/closing of LCD screen is VERY nice (it stays in a sort of standby mode for about 5 minutes after closing so that it doesn't have to completely reboot if you open again right away)
-Ease of operation (we've had relatives and friends who are not the most adept at using technology take video for us at a couple of events and even they commented on how simple and easy it was to use.
Cons:
-The battery is not overly impressive, but adequate. If it was a huge deal to me I'd buy a larger capacity battery.
-The image stabilization at long zoom is not overly impressive.
Both cons are rather nitpicky things that I would wish improved if I had to find things to improve. Neither one really is that inadequate, in my opinion.
Overall, I would recommend this camera to anyone who will be using it for home videos. We bought it shortly before the birth of our first child to capture all those "baby" moments, and haven't been disappointed at all. I can't pick out anything about the video or sound quality that I think is sub-par, and we are extremely satisfied with the purchase of the camcorder. Had it about 9 months now and have had no issues with it whatsoever.
