5.0 out of 5 stars
Revelation,
This review is from: JVC GZ-MG330R Slim HDD/microSD Hybrid Camcorder With Konica Minolta Lens (35x Optical Zoom) (Electronics)
I am not technically minded. I have had a larger and cumbersome DV tape camcorder for years. Hard disc camcorders are a revelation. This camcorder is part of that!I am not technically minded so in summary: 1. It looks good in red, is compact but feels well built and fits in my coat pocket and in my wifes bag as it is not too heavy! great for family days out. 2. It is extremely easy to operate, just open the viewfinder, point,and press the record button, the camera does the rest very easily. 3. Uploading to a computer is also very easy. just load the enclosed software, plug in the USB leads and press a button on the camera and it all appears on the computer like magic and it is very fast to upload. It is then like using a normal digital camera with all the various clips which can then be edited or easily burned on to a dvd by pressing the 'burn dvd' option. 4. The battery life is fine, you can buy more powerful ones, but the current one lasts me about 1 hour 30. this is enough because on an average day out you are not going to use it more than that. 5. The memory gives you over 7 or so hours of recording on the best fine quality, again, realistically, this is more than enough for qulaity recording, any more and it is likely you will never watch it again anyway as it is too long. Plus you can inseet some sort of memory card to give you more memory. 6. The playback quality is good. i am no expert, however, i have seen lots of different cameras and this is one of the better ones. 7.value for money and no more horrible tapes!!

Despite the comments of an earlier reviewer, the movie files taken on this camera can be viewed on Mac computers by downloading free converter software of which there are several. Not only can one view files using Quicktime but one can also convert to Real Player format. Furthermore the downloaded software will also allow the playing of Windows Media Video (.wmv) files for those who formerly used a Windows operating syatem.Whilst not perfect, this camera does everything as stated on the box. It is particularly attractive in red and stands out from the crowd as being that little bit different. It is both light in weight and extremely portable, but certainly not lightweight in the features offered. If one is wishing to take serious movie shots then this may well not be the camera for you but as a tool to capture unique moments and family mementos, it is an ideal companion to other photographic equipment. My advice is to snap one up whilst they are at a competitive price. It is amazing how much the price varies depending upon the colour chosen. This camera comes in three colours, namely red, blue and silver, but the bottom line is that they are all exctly the same camera!

The camera itself seems to run smoothly. However I am unable as yet to see how the video plays on my mac. When I came to download the recorded files to my mac, I discovered that the native JVC mod. format is not recognised or playable. It appears that in-order to play the recorded files, separate video converter software has to be purchase (approximately £30 -£40). This is a further expensive that I feel JVC should make clear, especially since all the software supplied with the camera is Windows based.
