Most parents just love to record their kids romping and frolicking wherever they are allowed to play. These could be at playgrounds, amusement parks, swimming pools, waterparks, or beach. Taking videos where there’s plenty of water all around, however, can pose a potential danger to your camcorder. It has to have some form of protection. If you’re looking for a video camera that has available protective gear, try looking at the JVC Everio GZ-HD320 Video Camera and its diving suit, the JVC WR-MG250 Underwater Housing.
The 1 /4.1″ CMOS sensor of the Everio GZ-HD320 coupled with its Konica Minolta HD lens guarantees clear and crisp HD video and still images, and with its 20x optical zoom, distant subjects can be brought up close. Picture composition and playback is a breeze with the 2.7″ LCD which provides a 16:9 display. Navigating the controls and menu on the screen is possible with the camcorder’s Laser Touch Operation system.
Video and still images are recorded in a 120GB hard disk drive. In spite of this large storage capacity, it incorporates a slot for microSD/HDSC cards. These images can also be watched on iPod or iPhones by exporting them to the user’s iTunes library. Uploading to YouTube is also quick and easy as is the creation of DVDs or AVCHD DVDs. All these functions can be launched with a single touch.
The JVC WR-MG250 Underwater Housing is dedicated to the Everio GZ-HD320. All of the camera’s major controls are mated to knobs and dials on the housing allowing their unhampered operation, such as the power off/on switch, zoom, recording start/stop, and still picture buttons.
With its solid construction and special o-rings, the WR-MG250 can take the camera to depths of 130 feet. Its lens port can accept different types of lenses, from wide angle through telephoto to macro.
