  • Easy to use and responsive funky touchscreen interface will appeal to the younger set
  • USB arm stiff and plastic-y, quite pronounced wind noise, poor stills quality if shooting interiors
  • A quick-on-the-draw toy for those who neither want the expense nor bells and whistles of a HD camcorder proper; footage is OK given its limitations and the budget price. And moreover it’s fun to use and share footage in social situations...

  • Abstract:  The camera itself tends to lift the colours to a level which – in the case of reds, particularly – is a little bit high, and you’ll notice some blocky image compression artefacts when the camera is moved quickl..

  • The pocket Internet camcorder phenomenon felt like a passing fad when it first arrived, and there's no doubt it will be consumed by smartphones sooner or later. But, for now, the devices are developing, and gaining new features to improve the quality of p...

  • Poor quality 1080p mode, Low on extras, No HDMI cable supplied, Some buildquality issues
  • The JVC Picsio GC-FM2 is a pocket-sized video and photo camera that has a couple of interesting tricks up its sleeve, but suffers from quality limitations and is pretty light on extras....

  • Unobtrusive pocket sized dimensions, Integral USB arm, Ease of use, Large LCD comes into its own when reviewing recordings
  • Plastic-y construction, Visibility is reduced to a small portion of the screen Grainy indoor footage, Wind noise loud and obvious
  • When the wind picks up or you take it indoors, the budget price starts to show. Still, the Picsia can't be knocked for portability, connectivity, ease of use and moreover fun.

  • Abstract:  La qualité d’image est dans la moyenne des pocketcams avec un 1080p plutôt flatteur sur un téléviseur HD. Pour un usage Web, le 720p est plus recommandé car plus léger à manipuler...

  • Ecran large, appareil léger et clair, sortie HDMI, le logiciel de partage.
  • Mode 1080p faible, peu d’options supplémentaires, pas de câble HDMI fourni.
  • Le JVC Picsio GC-FM2 est le dernier camescope numérique compact de JVC. Full HD, c'est une évolution du Picsio GC-FM1 dont il gomme pas mal de défauts....
