JVC Everio GZ-MG505EK
Trusted Reviews has a review up of the JVC Everio GZ-MG505EK and writes, “Although the MG505EK loses some of the pocket-friendly gadget appeal of the MC500EK, its bigger body solves one of its most significant issues too. Instead of hosting a 4GB Hitachi Microdrive for video storage, the MG50EK uses a 30GB 1.8in model instead, like its MZ-MG50EK predecessor. So rather than maxing out at one hour of video at the top Ultra Fine quality settings, the MG50EK can fit seven hours on its drive, which should be enough for most family holidays. … Taken on its own strengths, the JVC GZ-MG50E is a formidable package. Image quality is good, there is sufficient storage space for the lack of removable media not to be a problem at all, and the features are more than adequate if you don’t have semi-professional intentions. It’s the best hard disk camcorder we’ve seen so far. The main chink in the MG505E’s armour is that it shoots in standard definition, and high definition is rapidly gaining pace.”
