JVC calls the Everio GZ-MG130 a “Hybrid Camera”. Hybrid meaning not only do you have the option of capturing up to 37 hours of video to the camcorder’s internal hard drive, but you also can record video and stills to a SD Memory Card. Snap digital stills at a resolution of 640 x 480 and setup your shots perfectly with the vivid 2.7 inch, widescreen LCD monitor. The Everio Hybrid Camera also features 34x optical zoom and easy to use Stick Control for navigating settings and menus.

Pros: Data storage capability. 30Gb Hard Disc. No need for additional recording media. Large LCD. Software.
Cons: Easy to learn, but takes time. Included Battery insufficient. Car charger unavailable. Batteries costly.
Bottom Line:
Buy if you plan on making good, long movies and will use often. For occasional use, more basic camcorders can be found for less. Read More

Pros: Compact size, massive hard drive storage, direct and fast access to true digital recordings.
Cons: Poor battery life, problematic ".mod" file format, non tech savvy need not apply.
Bottom Line:
Cutting edge, HDD offers many advantages, but is crippled by JVC's use of USB vs. firewire, and the foolish non standard video format. Tech-savvy operator required for advanced features. Read More
