JVC 30GB Hard Disk Drive Camcorder

JVC's GZ-MG37 can record over seven hours of high-quality home video without using any tapes or recordable discs. How? It uses a built-in 30GB hard disk drive to store and play all of your footage. Imagine filming your entire vacation without having to carry along all those extra cassette and disc cases, and never having to stop and reload. Finding a specific scene you've recorded is a snap, too. There's no fast forwarding or rewinding necessary your movie clips are cataloged as thumbnail images. Just select the one you want and it's instantly ready to view. You can easily delete scenes to free up disk space, or assemble them into playlists for viewing in any order you wish. And there's never any risk of recording over precious, once-in-a-lifetime footage. The 'MG37 always selects a blank space on the hard drive to begin recording your next scene. When you've finished shooting, you can use the cam's high-speed USB interface to download your movies to a compatible computer. JVC includes intuitive, easy-to-use software for editing your footage and creating DVDs. Use your PC's DVD burner to make copies for permanent storage and for sharing with friends and family. Or, add JVC's CU-VD10 Share Station for quick, direct DVD burning without a computer. You can play your movies back on a TV, as well, or record them to a VCR or component DVD recorder using the camcorder's audio/video outputs. Along with its innovative recording abilities, the GZ-MG37 offers a host of features that help you shoot great-looking video. A powerful 32X optical zoom lens takes you right to the action for extreme close-up shots with excellent clarity. A 16:9 widescreen shooting mode gives you compelling, cinematic videos that look fantastic on today's big-screen HDTVs. A built-in LED light illuminates your subjects for more colorful video in dark environments, and JVC's proprietary video noise reduction system helps give you a brighter, cleaner-looking picture in low light. You can even snap digital still images and save them to optional SD memory cards.
