'impressively deep and professional manual controls'

'The HM550 has other great new features being showcased by JVC's newly announced flagship camcorder, the GZ-HM1.'
'smooth, fluid image'
'Picture quality and sound are impressively clear, with no background hiss or operational buzz, while colours have just the right amount of saturation to ensure that skin tones look healthy without appearing unnaturally so.'
'colours are warm and well saturated – reds particularly eye popping and skin tones bright and healthy looking – with detail and sound impressively clear when viewed back on a flat panel telly.'
'The CS1 is small enough to fit in a pocket, but has Full HD capability and a 10x optical zoom lens—two specs that aren't found on any of the Flip camcorders.'
'The creamy white and black incarnation of the latest high definition Sanyo Xacti VPC-CG10 model remains desirably attractive and portable too at a weight of 188g with rechargeable lithium-ion battery and card inserted.'
'Images remained impressively sharp throughout testing, with detailed objects — such as overlapping leaves — exhibiting little digital smearing.'
