JVC GR-D290 review

The JVC GR-D290 packs an impressive feature list for such a low-priced MiniDV camcorder, including a 25x optical zoom, two included batteries, an SD/MMC card slot for saving stills and a built-in video light, but it offers only mediocre video quality and fuzzy stills Read more

Panasonic NVGS35B review

The Panasonic NVGS35B is in most respects a rather ordinary compact camcorder -- until you hit the zoom switch. With its far-reaching 30x optical zoom, the NVGS35B offers shooting flexibility that's unprecedented for a camera in its price class, and also offers decent video quality and a good, basic set of features Read more

Sony DCR-DVD203 review

The Sony Handycam DCR-DVD203 has many of the features that made the DCR-DVD403 one of our top DVD camcorders, including solid video quality, speedy start-up and DVD convenience. It's not quite as good at low-light shooting and doesn't cut it for still photos, though Read more

Samsung DuoCam VP-D6550 review

Samsung's latest entry in the DuoCam series is another attempt at providing a single imaging solution -- it's a camcorder with a separate digital camera included. Such solutions inevitably involve compromise and here the downsides are a sluggish camera and poor low-light video quality Read more

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

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MiniDV might have been superceded by hard disks in the gadget-cool stakes, but it's still widely available, great value and, most importantly, offers good quality imaging.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

The Everio GZ-MG50 is small and light, weighing about 380g with its battery attached, it has a 1.33-megapixel CCD and its 30GB hard drive can hold 10.5 hours of DVD-quality footage. Where on earth will we put it all? Read more
