JVC HD Everio GZ-V515

JVC's HD Everio GZ-V515 achieves better image quality than expected from such bijou body.

JVC HD Everio GZ-V515

This is exactly what I was looking for: full HD video with time lapse. Image quality is very good and it has a wide range of features. It does exactly what its specification describes and does it very well.

The compact design is great but this means that the battery is relatively small and therefore has rather limited capacity. Manual control can be fiddly especially manual focusing.
