JVC Everio S GZ-MS100 Review

There are many other less expensive gadgets that let you post to YouTube but quality is pretty weak.

Everio GZ series (flash) review

JVC's Everio GZ-MS100 is a compact, budget SD-card-based camcorder capitalizing on the trend of one-touch upload of video to the Internet; the big YouTube sticker on back of the camcorder's LCD and the YouTube branding on the box are kind of a...

Average standard-definition video quality for its class; manual controls; small, comfortable design.

Tricky menu navigation; polarizing interface; meager user guide; and questionable YouTube-friendliness.

The JVC Everio GZ-MS100 is an average budget SD-card-based camcorder that's more attractive for its small design and relatively average video quality than its unique interface and one-touch uploads to YouTube.

Review: JVC Everio GZ-MS100

“It's a YouTube camera … It's a camcorder made for uploading YouTube clips … We think this cam will be great for sending videos to...

35x optical zoom brings the action right to your doorstep. Superb video quality. Formula 1 start-up speed. Easy to use laser touch LCD

No optical image stabilization. Lack of Mac compatibility is inexcusable and utterly perplexing. Three hundred and fifty bones for a camera that’s made to record for YouTube? The Flip Mino does the same thing for about half the cost

JVC GZ-MS100

The Everio GZ-MS100 is JVC's attempt to cash in on the demand for affordable, easy-to-use camcorders directed toward online publishing (i.e., YouTube). Unfortunately, the MS100 is going through a bit of an identity crisis. The overall video performance...

JVC Everio GZ-MS100 Camcorder Review

So what does the MS100 have that these micro camcorders are missing? Aside from better-looking video, you get a lot more options. While Flip users are stuck with little more than an on/off button, the MS100 lets you brighten or darken the image, adjust...

JVC GZ-MS100EX

The JVC GZ-MS100EX video camcorder features a Konica Minolta lens with a 35x optical zoom, a 6.8cm wide LCD screen, a auto focus mode and the one-touch Youtube button that allows users to directly upload their videos online. It also comes with an SD...

If you’re only shooting for YouTube, you might be better off with the budget Flip Mino, but this Everio offers so much more, including a tasty zoom, good low-light shooting and surprisingly sharp video. A solid state bargain. JVC GZ-MS100EX is tagged...
