Marked improvements will be seen in the succeeding JVC GZ HD10, some of which include an enhanced optical stabilizer and a built-in ND filter. Optical resolution for both video and camera will be increased, with the latter going up to at least 10 megapixels. One additional enhancement of the JVC GZ HD10 will include a longer battery life.

    The AVCHD format is fast becoming the standard for HD camcorders. With the release of the Everio GZ-HD40, HD30 and HD10, JVC has finally jumped on the bandwagon. But where the HD40 and HD30 still hedge their bets by offering MPEG-2 compression as well, the Everio GZ-HD10, released at the same time, goes all the way. It only offers AVCHD, and it also misses out on the Full HD resolution offered by its bigger brothers. Read more

    Camcorders have come a long way in the past few years, but most still record video to a form of tape – usually MiniDV cassettes. This has its advantages, as tapes are relatively cheap, but they can be fiddly. JVC’s GZ-HD10 does things a little differently, storing footage on a built-in 40GB hard disk. The GZ-HD10 sits comfortably in the hand, and is ready to record just a few seconds after its screen is flipped out. The lens is protected by a manually operated... Read more

    This is a great camera for the price. You are able to get some really clear video but you need to know how to use it. There are some things that could use imporvement. It definitely has potential. I would recomment this to someone who wants a hd camera without the big price. Read more

    I recieved the JVC GZ-HD10 Digital Camcorder as a Christmas gift. Find that lacking a camera previously meant a lot of missed moments, the camera was the perfect present. At around the £300 mark average the camera is great for beginners, not too expensive so if that you find you don't use it, it's not as bad as splashing out on something even more expensive. This camera is great for beginner's with plenty of functionality. The camera its self uses a 1.84 mega-pixel CMOS... Read more
