The Everio S GZ-MS120 Flash Memory Camcorder (Topaz Blue) from JVC embraces solid state media by offering two, SD/SDHC memory card slots. Record up to 80 hours, of life's little moments directly to these convenient cards (in 32GB card, in Eco mode). Forget carrying around tapes, DVDs or transferring footage from the hard drive - flash memory is as easy as it gets. When you're ready to share your footage online with friends and family, the camera features One-Touch Export to iTunes and One-Touch Upload to YouTube. The GZ-MS120 also doubles as a digital still camera, so leave that little point and shoot at home.

Other defining features of the MS120 include the KONICA MINOLTA lens with 40x Dynamic Zoom. The 40x zoom lets you capture your child's game winning goal with clarity and virtually no loss in image quality. And you can replay that moment again and again, for everyone to see, on the 2.7" LCD display. When you want to switch things up, the Laser Touch Operation system is right on the frame of the LCD, offering a convenient way to navigate the camera's controls. Affordable and user-friendly, the GZ-MS120 is a value for those looking to share their lives with far off friends and family.

Dual SD/SDHC Card Slots
The GZ-MS120 gives you two SD/SDHC memory card slots for increased recording capacity. Record up to 15 hours worth of video when you use two 32GB cards (20-80 hours in the lowest quality Eco mode).
1/6" CCD Image Sensor
The GZ-MS120 has a 1/6" CCD image sensor for capturing standard definition video and still images. JVC's Gigabrid Engine works together with the sensor for improved image quality.
KONICA MINOLTA Lens with 40x Dyamic Zoom
The KONICA MINOLTA lens features 40x Dynamic Zoom, in addition to the lens' 35x optical zoom. Both of these optical zoom settings bring far off subjects up-close without a loss in image quality.
2.7" Widescreen Clear LCD
The LCD on the GZ-MS120 provides a 16:9 display on which to compose and playback video and stills. JVC's improved Laser Touch Operation system lets you navigate the camera's basic controls and menu selections on the side and bottom of the screen.

    Comments about JVC Everio S GZ-MS120 Flash Memory Camcorder (Topaz Blue):

    At this price, I'm impressed. My only problems are the tiny size not fiting my big hands, and the software was not perfectly intuitive for me. I've had it about a month, and have no problem at all with battery life, and a 16GB card is all the recording time I need.
