50 hours of shooting time, Good color and image detail, Small, easy to hold, Quick on/off reflex time
Arcane menu navigation, Manual focus can be testy due to toggle placement, Runs hot
JVC has capitalized on the demand for smaller, smarter technology by giving shooters multiple formats to choose from and an endless amount of shooting time. Tom Skowronski is the producer, writer, director and editor of a professional wrestling televi...
Massive 120GB storage, Great color in good light, Compact and responsive
No optical image stabilization, Noisy in low light, Zoom should be more powerful, *
The GZ-HD40 and its smaller sibling, the HD30, are weird ducks. They take quality video but I don’t understand the need for two types of HD recording. I would much rather see JVC use MPEG-2 TS and add optical image stabilization. That would be a...
The Everio GZ-HD40 is a very strong entry, and on pure quality and features really puts JVC on par with Canon and Sony, with a few niggles such as the lack of a lens ring. However, its price is a drawback. At nearly £1,000, the HD40 is significantly more ...
Abstract: The JVC GZ-HD40 ($1299 MSRP) is a big step forward for the high definition Everio series of camcorders. JVC has finally joined the kids at the popular table by allowing the camcorder to record in AVCHD, while maintaining the ability to record in MPEG-2...
Abstract: After a solid weekend at the OBX with JVCs capacious HD camcorder, we left underwhelmed with its overall performance. To be frank, the value just isnt here. For $1,299.99 (MSRP), we simply expected more all the way around. If internal capacity is par...
Lacks a viewfinder, frame-rate options are limited, fails to wow
The JVC Everio GZ-HD40 isn’t a bad HD camcorder — in fact, it’s pretty good. That being said, there are other camcorders on the market that offer better images and usability at a lower price. ...
Assez bonne qualité des images, Vidéo en AVCHD ou MPeg2 TS, Nombreux réglages manuels disponibles, Présence d'une prise casque et micro, Présence d'une torche LED
Stabilisation perfectible, Joystick de navigation petit et peu pratique, Pas d'enregistrement au format 5.1, Pas de véritable grand angle, Logiciel livré assez limité
Probablement le meilleur caméscope Full HD proposé par JVC. La qualité des images est en progrès et le GZ-HD40 offre de nombreuses fonctionnalités qui devraient séduire le vidéaste exigeant. La stabilisation numériq...
Enregistrements en Mpeg4, Disque dur de 120 Go, Sortie HDMI
Pas de stabilisateur optique
Il y a quelques mois, JVC annonçait déjà une série de caméscopes Full HD à disque dur, dont lun des représentants est lEverio GZ-HD6EX. Le constructeur revient sur ce marché avec trois nouveaux appareils, dont le plus évolué est lEverio HD GZ-HD40. ...
tolle Videoqualität, unterstützt zwei verschiedene HD-Formate, viele manuelle Einstellungsmöglichkeiten
kein optischer Bildstabilisator, verwirrendes Menüsystem, einige Design-Macken
Der JVC GZ-HD40 ist ein flexibler Full-HD-Camcorder, der eine ausgezeichnete Videoqualität liefert. Er lässt dem Kameramann bei den Videoeinstellungen viel Freiraum für Kreativität. Allerdings trüben das komplizierte Menüsystem und das Fehlen eines opt...
