5 Aug, World Edition Jørgen Sundgot reviews JVC's hard drive based Everio GZ-MC500E camcorder, finding a rock solid video performer with slightly less impressive imaging capabilities. More...
A wolf in sheep's clothing, the JVC Everio GZ-MC500E brims with professional features in a compact and innovative design. Its still imaging capabilities are somewhat overrated with regard to resolution, but results are nevertheless excellent - as is also the case with video and audio. A molasses-like start-up time puts a serious dampener on those in want of a capture-the-moment camcorder, but the GZ-MC500E still comes recommended for those who want a powerful tool that can either take the work out of shooting or put full control in the hands of its user. More...
Despite taking a back seat to the image quality of its older sibling, the Everio GZ-MG50 fights back with mind-boggling storage capacity and a 15x optical zoom lens. Unfortunately, poor control placement hampers an otherwise excellent interface, which, in conjunction with average image quality, renders this camcorder a choice for point-and-shoot users in need of excessive storage and simplicity. Beware, though; the price tag is high as is, and acquiring enough batteries to keep up with the camcorder's capacity will sting your wallet. More...
A jack of all trades, the Xacti VPC-C5 does not excel in any one area - yet this strange, two-headed beast has its allure. Whilst imaging performance is only adequate, its small size and simple operation will appeal to any consumer who want to record their experiences with a minimum of hassle. Professional amateurs, on the other hand, will find themselves annoyed by the lack of more advanced configuration options and features. Unless recording video in the evenings (oh, get your mind out of the gutter) or monologues in quiet yet varying surroundings are of primary importance, the VPC-C5 comes recommended. More...

Sporting an updated traditional camera style, the Cyber-shot DSC-W70 from Sony is equipped with an eye-level viewfinder as well as a 2.5-inch LCD screen to provide a view to its 3x Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar optical zoom lens. A 7.2 Megapixel CCD sensor captures images at a higher resolution than most, while ISO 1000 sensitivity aims to reduce noise and camera shake impact. Claiming a battery life of up to 360 shots on a single charge, the DSC-W70 relies on - what else - Memory Stick Duo cards for storage.
In addition to a 3x optical zoom lens, 8.1 Megapixel CCD sensor and 2.5-inch LCD screen, the Casio Exilim EX-Z850 sports a unique burst mode for snapping 3 pictures with flash in the span of a second.
