'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.'

'For starters, it captures full 1080p video, not 720p like the higher-end pocket camcorders capture, and at a whopping 60 frames per second. '

'responsive wide-angle-to-telephoto rocker zoom'

'Shoots 720p HD video.'

'sharp, noise-free image'

'Colours are bright and vivid, there is very little grain on the video, and low-light recording is impressively sharp.'

'smooth performance'

'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.'
