I’m a huge fan of the JVC HDD based camcorders, and I have recently got one for myself (to film my little baby crying, because that is all she does). The people over at Digital Trends have done a great review on the new JVC Everio GZ-HD3. They have said “you’ll love the five hours of storage, nice ergonomics and pretty HD video”, giving the camera a good 7.5/10. Can’t wait for these things to get 100GB HDD’s up.

JVC Australia announced on the 24Th of this month (September for people who don’t get out much) 2 brand spanking new True HD LCD’s. The 2 flavours are LT-46FZD7 which is a 46-inch and the smaller LT-42FZD7 being a 42-inch.
Both screen include a DVB-T Tuner, with the best part being their resolutions of 1920 x1080. Other features include a response of 10ms, viewing angle of 178/178 (degrees), brightness of 500cd/m2, Picture-In-Picture (PIP), 2 x 10w inbuilt speakers and 2 HDMI inputs. One thing I question, that hopefully one of my faithful readers (sorry I should have said my 1 faithful reader) can answer is why only a contrast ratio of 1:1500? Doesn’t the new ViewSonic’s have a 1:2000?
They are set for an October release and priced at $AU4399 for the LT-46FZD7 and $AU3599 for the LT-42FZD7. If the nice people at JVC get this and feel like sending me a free one (either is good), I will accept willingly.
