JVC Everio GZ-HD300 Camcorder Review

 

This year, JVC is focusing more on mid-range HD models than other manufacturers. While Sony, Panasonic, and Canon all introduced new top-of-the-line products, JVC spent most of its marketing attention on the Everio GZ-HD300 and GZ-HD320-two camcorders...

When you're shopping for an inexpensive, high definition camcorder, it usually comes down to making some sacrifices. With the JVC GZ-HD300, there are plenty of those: poor sensitivity in low light, mediocre noise levels, disappointing still...

Review: JVC Everio GZ-HD300 HD camcorder

 

The consumer camcorder market is making big steps forward right now. So while that camcorder you bought last year isn't in desperate need for an upgrade, if you haven't purchased one in two (or more) years then you might be surprised by what is coming...

JVC Everio GZ-HD300

 

The GZ-HD300 is one of JVC's numerous mid-range HD camcorders that were released in 2009. Similar to other JVC camcorders in the same range, the HD300 is compact, relatively affordable ($700 MSRP), and well-suited for novice videographers. The...

The best thing about the GZ-HD300 is its simple interface and easy-to-use menu system. All the camcorder's settings can be found under one menu, and it was courteously designed to explain what each option does. The HD300's automatic controls were...

JVC GZ-HD300

 

Compact and easy to use, but lacks all the bells and whistles of the $1000+ competition

60GB hard drive; Excellent color accuracy

Terrible low light sensitivity; Subpar sharpness

JVC Everio GZ-HD300 camcorder can't compete with cheaper HD cameras

 

Better HD image quality than you'd expect for such a small camcorder, but the price is still a little high.

Very capable, recommended

 

A great buy as a refurb, overpriced at full retail. Low light performance is not great but that is expected. Daylight videos are excellent. Light enough to carry for hours - get spare batteries. The newer Everios have time lapse, this one doesn't....

Light weight, battery life, image quality

Great Little Cam

 

I had to purchase a rapid charger and a spare battery to keep recording without interruptions.

It takes good video inside with normal lighting. Its really ; nice taking video outside. I love the compact design, easy to carry. First time I bought a HD camcorder and ; I'm glad I bought this one

You have to charge battery by pluging into the camera to charge the battery, unless you buy a seperate battery charger for it
