JVC's standard definition GZ-MG750 Everio Hard Drive Camera provides the most recording time for the company's SD 2010 line-up. The built-in 80GB HDD can hold up to 100 hours of video. Using optional microSD/SDHC memory cards expands the camera's capacity even further. The camera also features a 1/6" CCD image sensor with Super LoLux low light recording, 45x Dynamic zoom, an Advanced Image Stabilizer, and JVC's Laser Touch Operation LCD. In addition to these components the camera comes with user-friendly functions designed to make your recording experience an easier one. You'll benefit from Auto REC, Time-Lapse REC, a video light, and a 2-way grip belt. When you're all done recording the included Everio MediaBrowser editing software helps you edit, manage, and share your footage.

80GB Hard Disk Drive and microSD/SDHC Recording
Record your footage to the built-in 80GB hard disk drive, which can hold up to 100 hours of video, or to optional microSD/SDHC memory cards
1/6" 800k Pixel CCD Image Sensor
The 1/6" CCD image sensor helps to capture brilliant standard definition footage to the GZ-MG750B camcorder
Laser Touch Operation LCD
The Laser Touch LCD features a touch-sensitive scroll bar and buttons for smooth operation. It allows for zooming and recording using either the Laser Touch or standard zoom lever, and REC button. Browsing through indexes and menu selections is easy, and since you don't touch the LCD screen itself, you can keep the display clean and fingerprint-free
Konica Minolta Lens with 45x Dynamic Zoom
The Konica Minolta lens captures your footage with clarity, while providing 45x Dynamic zoom for capturing far off subjects, without experiencing a loss in image quality
Advanced Image Stabilizer
Advanced Image Stabilizer expands the effective area at wide angle to 4 times that of 2009 models, delivering powerful compensation for camera shake. You can enjoy stable results even if you're trotting alongside your subject 1
Super LoLux
Low light performance is one of the key factors for quality video. Everio's Super LoLux ensures superior sensitivity to low light. In order to provide this standard definition models offer a large 1/6" high-sensitivity CCD. The result is clear images with precise colors, even in low light
Auto REC
With Auto REC when a subject enters the detecting area, and the luminance changes, recording starts automatically. Recording continues as long as there is movement within the area and automatically stops after 5 seconds of no movement. You can use it like a surveillance camera, or to capture hard to get scenes, like wildlife
Time-Lapse REC
Time-Lapse REC records one frame at a time at set intervals (1-80sec). You can watch an hour's worth of movement in just a short amount of time upon playback
2-Way Grip Belt
This detachable strap is designed to work as a grip belt when shooting and as a hand strap when carrying
Everio MediaBrowser
Everio MediaBrowser software provides file playback, management, and simple sharing functions. To make it easy to find your footage the software's calendar type graphical user interface displays thumbnail images of your recordings, superimposed on the date they were taken

Comments about JVC GZ-MG750 Everio Hard Drive Camera:

I bought this camera for the positive reviews & low light capability. It's pretty good for the price range & does work decently in low light situations. The zoom is good & mostly optical and the white balance is pretty good (though I have yet to figure out how to manually set white balance). It outputs to a proprietary format, but it's just MPG with another file extension & if you change it to MPG you can open it up in your favorite video editing program.

I'd love a camera that didn't produce interlaced output or the 0.9 pixel compression for DVD though since I'm producing for PC/internet viewing. It takes a bit of fiddling in my video editing programs to get what I want & I'd prefer it to support non-interlaced square pixels natively. So my search for a perfect camera continues- still this is a perfectly good camera, better than other stuff in this range, just not "straight to internet" as much as I'd like.

    Comments about JVC GZ-MG750 Everio Hard Drive Camera:

    This is a great litle camera. It is very convenient to carry around. The picture quality is surprisingly very good. Taking pictures is quite easy to do. There are very few steps to take a picture. The audio quality is OK. For the money, it is hard to beat this camera. It is a fun casmera to use. We were able to take pictures in a very short time after taking the camera out of the box, which in this day and age of complexity is a good thing. The only downside is the software contained in the camera. We are having difficulty editing the video. JVC could not help us out, we had to call the software manufacturer to get some assistance. We are still struggling with the editing process.

      I brought this camcorder to record Church Services for the most part and am very pleased with the picture and sound. Only thing I think that needs to be improved on is the battery life. Now I just need to learn how to break down large files so I can put my vids on Youtube. :)

          Comments about JVC GZ-MG750 Everio Hard Drive Camera:

          The JVC GZ-MG750 is an excellent camcorder for beginners and casual photographers. I bought this camcorder about three weeks ago and it has been a great device since. The JVC camcorder offers two modes: the recording and snapshot. Although there are two modes, these modes offer great effects such as, snapshot during recording, light (auto, manual, off), edits, and etc. However the camera lacks HD quality under dark surroundings and low light. The flash on the camcorder is magnificent, yet weak. There is also no image stabilization which is a disappointment. Another disappointment is the manual lens open and close switch. When I first got this, I thought it was broken because the screen said, "Check lens." I realized there was a switch. If they plan to upgrade this camcorder they should really open the lens automatically. The camcorder is not as great as the Canon Vixia HF200, but it still has most of the main and necessary functions. One great, small function about this camera that I like is the laser scroll. It is much easier and faster for me to locate my photos or videos. It's like using a blackberry on a camcorder. I love this camcorder and it was worth every penny. So if you guys are thinking about buying this camera, I absolutely recommend you, especially if you are a beginner. This is truly: Excellence made simple.

          The camera has small internal memory but takes SD cards. I've never ran out of the internal memory. The only negative is that I have to convert the camera files to input into editing programs. [...]. I'll definitely be coming back again.

          Comments about JVC GZ-MG750 Everio Hard Drive Camera:

          Merits:
          * Good Camcorder, good for the low price.
          * This is not a High Definition Camcorder.
          * Lots of Harddrive space, good caual camcorder.
          * Small & Compact, light weight,easy to use.
          * Easy to upload to utube.
          Demerits:
          * No view finder like in my old mini dv camcorder. Have to use the LCD to view.
          * The LCD panel does not rotate beyond certain angle liek 90 degrees.
          * Lens cover can only be opened/closed manually. Not really a bad thing.
          * To charge the battery, the camcorder needs to be attached to the battery while charging.
          * Software for editing is basic but easy to learn.
          * Short battery life
          -------------------------------------
          Why I bought this camera?
          * Budget for the camcorder was low.
          * Not ready for a High Definition Camcorder becoz feel the HD tech is still new and the compression formats to store on computer or external hard drive still occupies lots of space.
          * To buy HD Camcorder means I would have to upgrade my Pentium 3 Computer. Was not ready for it yet.
          * Wanted a amateaur camera for casual purpose.

                Bought this camera for my wife based on the things she said she would like for filming our children as they grow up as well as vacations and trips.

                        I like the quality of the camera and I think the batterie is find for small events... I just like this camera when I use it for household moments.

                        On the other hand a do NOT like the fact that this camera encodes it's videos in a format that is not normally readable by Mac of Linux! You have to loose some of the quality if you want to edit it or have sound! That is why I gave it 4 stars.
