The Bottom Line: The JVC Everio GZ-MS130 is a nice little flash-memory-based standard-def camcorder.
Specs: Camcorder, CCD, 35 x, Flash card, 8.6 oz
The Bottom Line: Sanyo's dual-camera Xacti VPC-CG10 has the design and features to easily shoot both HD-quality movies and 10-megapixel photos, but slow performance and mediocre photos keep it from being a solid do-it-all device.
Specs: Camcorder, CMOS, 5 x, Flash card, 6 oz
The Bottom Line: The JVC GC-FM1's impractical design and poor software hobble an otherwise competent mini camcorder competitor.
Specs: Camcorder, CMOS, Flash card, 8.0 megapixels, 3.4 oz
The Bottom Line: Still one of the nicest models available, the second-generation Flip MinoHD offers a slightly improved design, double the memory, and an HDMI output for the same price that the original MinoHD used to cost.
Specs: Camcorder, CMOS, Flash card, 4.1 oz
The Bottom Line: The Sony Handycam DCR-DVD650 offers an all-in-one, on-the-go way to capture standard-def video and burn it to a DVD, but hard-disk-drive and flash-memory models are otherwise a better option.
Specs: Camcorder, Advanced HAD CCD, 60 x, Flash card, DVD-R (8cm), DVD+RW (8cm), DVD-RW (8 cm), DVD+R DL (8cm), 13.8 oz
