JVC GR-X5 review

JVC bills the GR-X5 as a 'cutting-edge digital media camera'. It's a sort of Swiss Army knife that is supposed to satisfy all a consumer's imaging needs, both video and still. With a typical price of £860, this would be an expensive camcorder or still camera, but as it does both functions well, it's not a bad deal. Just don't take it out at night Read more

Sony Handycam DCR-PC1000 review

This MiniDV digital camcorder offers superb picture quality from its three CMOS chips. But while it's compact and has a good widescreen LCD, the user interface is a shambles -- it's overly complicated and difficult to find basic functions Read more

JVC GR-D240 review

MiniDV might have been superceded by hard disks in the gadget-cool stakes, but it's still widely available, great value and, most importantly, offers good quality imaging. The GR-D240 is a case in point: a simple holiday camcorder that offers lovely daylight footage Read more

Sony Handycam DCR-HC32 review

The Sony Handycam DCR-HC32 offers a powerful optical zoom, a low price tag, a compact design, friendly ergonomics and abundant manual adjustments. Only image quality spoils the party: be prepared for tame colours and some noticeable noise in lower-light settings Read more

Sony DCR-PC55 review

A stylish shooting companion that's small and light enough to fit in your trouser pocket, the DCR-PC55 also provides most of the capabilities of larger counterparts. Unfortunately, it compromises on video quality Read more

Canon MVX45i review

Canon hopes its MVX45i will attract buyers who want more than an entry-level camcorder can provide. And although it offers impressive features, such as manual exposure controls and optical image stabilisation, its low-light shooting will probably disappoint Read more

Sony HDR-FX1 review

Sony's first HDV camera, the HDR-FX1, has some very well-thought-out features that make it an ideal vessel for riding out the transition to hi-def Read more
