Find my review for the JVC GY-HM600. Everything I said is the same, only better. This is my personal camera for everything I shoot and I only share it with my students when we have to have 6 cameras at once. I'm a big fan of JVC cameras.
Just recieved my new JVC GY-Hm620 and went out to test it at a club. I was amazed how well it adjusted to the light. The unit was able to record and see everyone without and back light or turning up any outside source. It was easy to work and took no time to learn the basic recording techniques.
In addition to my previous post, I've discovered that when you zoomed in all the way on JVC 23x vs. Canon 18x, they both were about the same because the Canon lens is bigger. Both cameras did well because when you zoom really far, your aperture gets smaller. Canon is at 2.8 and JVC is at 3.0.
Purchased the next model higher earlier and figured I would try this one since it's has pretty much everything as the more expensive model except steaming module in it. Love the way it looks on IMAG and recording quality.
one needs to download the full manual, the one supplied, dosn't cover it all. Even in the full manual, many usages are not fully explained/covered. The manual also includes instructions for the 660 camera and sometimes it is not clear if instructions are for 620 or not.
This is my 5th JVC HM series camera and I really like them! It looks so much better than my Sony that was over $1,000 more.
