Generally satisfying video and still-photo quality; light and compact design; appropriate and usable manual controls.
No eye-level viewfinder; requires a pass through the manual to understand operation; no internal lens cover; renders reds poorly; video looks washed out on computer.

3CCDs. Long recording time. Adequate software. Pleasant in the hand. Simplicity of controls. Cold shoe and microphone socket. Relatively sophisticated still camera functions; nice pictures.

qualité dimage (vidéo et photo) globalement satisfaisante ; format léger et compact ; commandes manuelles appropriés et utiles, prise micro.
pas de viseur optique ; lecture du manuel indispensable pour comprendre son fonctionnement ; pas de cache dobjectif interne ; piètre restitution des rouges ; vidéo délavée sur un moniteur.
caméscope à disque dur bien conçu, le JVC Everio GZ-MG505 produit une vidéo et des clichés remarquables sur un écran de téléviseur, mais vous serez peut-être freiné par son prix.
