Saving Money One Product at a Time
If I Were Single Again
I want to start this post stating, by saying I do not wish to to be single again. I am perfectly happy being married. The whole reason for this title and this subject is what I have heard from young, middle aged. and older people who find themselves without a partner for one reason or the other. I have seen several single people with interesting attitudes toward money, and saving money. I thoug...
Valentine’s Day the Perfect Gift
Valentine's Day is one of those day's we must not forget, or else! Or else a loved one, or mother maybe hurt, disappointed or upset at the very least. We do have help in not forgetting. Television commercials, displays in stores, and email having been reminding me for almost a month. February 14th is Valentines Day, and we should get our loved one some gift. Now we know we got to get our wife...
Beetle or Cooper
This week we have heard reports about gas prices are going up. After hitting a low of close to $3 per gallon for most of January, we are expecting gas prices to start climbing again. With gas prices climbing, the cost of driving our vehicles one mile has started to increase. For those of you who commute any distant to and from work, it will be a big impact on your budget. Like through out mo...
Wonderful World of Trade Shows
Las Vegas is a great place to go for a getaway vacation. It is also know as one of the most popular places to hold a trade show. If you look at the Las Vegas Convention Convention Center there is back to back trade shows. Still for someone like me, who happens to love trade shows, it is not practical for me to spend so much time in Vegas. In fact there is another location where I can go to a tr...

Drinks and food is going to get spilled. Afterwards there will be some cleaning that need to be done. Depending on wild the party gets will depend on how much cleaning will need to be done. In preparation fo...
Gas Mileage Lies
On morning news there was a sniped about a lady who sued Honda for misrepresentation of their gas mileage. It was in small claims court, but still won $10,000. Interesting! It has become pretty much accepted, by all of us, what the sticker gas mileage would be under ideal condition. I am glad someone has stepped up to say, "We are not going to take it anymore!" When I look at different makes...
Touch Screen Desktop Computers
I first saw touch screens computers in the food processing industry back in the late 90's. Since then the technology and the price has been slowly been dropping. As a result we now see more cell phones with touch screens than without. The overall adoption of a touch screen desktop computer has been slow mostly because of the cost. We are seeing the price going under the $1,000 mark. This makes ...
Social Responsible Buying
Last week the name Foxconn and Apple were in all the headlines. It was not about great profits, or some new electronic gadget. It was about the inhumane treatment of the workers in China. What is interesting to note is that Foxconn does not just manufacture electronics for Apple. Foxconn manufacture over 50% of the electronics sold in the United States. Mistreatment of works or labors misbeh...
Secrets of Shopping Wal Mart
Midday on any Saturday or Sunday, at Wal Mart, finds families and couples getting their weekly shopping done. We are at the end of January. People are starting to recover from the Christmas shopping madness. Walking we were greeted by a your 60 oriental lady. I think it is great that Wal Mart seek to find jobs for elderly on fixed incomes. After a quick stop by the cosmetic section for some...
Search for a Practical Usable Tablet
Since before Thanksgiving I have been slowing giving into the idea of getting a tablet. I have looked at all the major brands of tablets and eReaders. I have been trying to imagine how often I would use it. I watch how other people would use their tablets. While attending a local trade show I noticed a large majority of the vendors were using iPads. There were only a few who had other tablets....

Camera Recon – JVC Everio

Posted By: TSN Boise on March 25, 2010 in Home, Lifestyle, Photography, Tech Stuff - Comments: Comments Off

About a month ago, I was browsing through the camera section of Wal Mart. There they had a couple of digital cameras and three camcorders on clearance. The JVC Everio MG50 had a very attractive price of $125.00.  Then I started wondering why so cheep?

I did a quick check form my cell phone. I got some no so hot of reviews form Cnet.com. Then it dawn on me that the MG50 was last years model, along with the not so hot reviews was why it was on clearance.  So I passed.

Since JVC Everio GZ-MG630 is the 2010 model, I am always willing to take a second look at anything, especially with a new model year. Besides, I like the way the JVC Everio’s look and feel. The small handheld sleek design is quite attractive.

The idea to have one camera for taking still pictures and movies is great. Whether it is a family outing or Christmas production at my daughters school, I am always finding opportunities to take pictures. I love to share those pictures, because shared pictures are sharing great memories.

A first look at the JVC MG630 with its 800X digital and 35X optical zoom camcorder would be great for taking pictures at a distance. Then having a 60 gigabyte internal hard drive makes saving those picture easy. Oh yes, add a microphone for recording sounds that go along with the pictures. What more can you ask?

Then price of JVC Everio GZ-MG630 ranges from $250 to $400. This would be a nice price for a family camera/camcorder combo.

Bottom-line: I usually don’t like being so negative. The more reviews I read the less I get impressed. It was not for one outstanding issue. The negative reviews were for a variety of issues.  I just have not found anyone who really likes the JVC Everio. This camcorder should be recalled for general principles.
