HORRIBLE!!!!
This is the worst waste of money ever! We've had it for a year, and are still unable to burn a dvd that wont skip, or freeze up! You can not edit you video with out purchasing the software, and the software is a joke!!! Your forced to only use this software, and you can't even delete parts out from your segments you have to split the segment where you want to delete, and then trim the beginning of the next segment to remove unwanted video! I spent six hours trying to edit a dvd because the software runs so slow, and at the end it told me I had to purchase the software if I wanted to burn the dvd! I WILL NEVER PURCHASE JVC AGAIN!!!!

Inefficient customer service
I ordered this product with the understanding that it was new (as advertised). The next day, I received an apology stating that the item was refurbished and Ritz Camera offered a $20 voucher for future purchases, or the option to cancel the order. I opted to cancel the order. The next day, I was informed the item had already shipped, and that I would have to deny the package so it would be returned for reimbursement. When I called customer service to discuss their error, I got someone who seemed to be reading from a script and unable to answer simple questions. Then I was told that I would have to wait 7-10 days after they received the camera before I saw a refund. The refund process did not start until I called to remind them that they owed me money. Eight days later, I received my refund, but without the shipping costs. I was dumbfounded that I was being charged for their mistake. After multiple contacts, I received an automated message stating that I would also be refunded the shipping costs, which took another 7 days. In total, this error took nearly a month to resolve and would not have been corrected at all had I not hassled customer service and sent multiple emails in hopes that it would reach someone who could give me more information than what I found on their website's package tracking page. I had a horrible experience and should not have had to fight to get refunded for a mistake that was not on my behalf.

DO NOT BUY THIS CAMCORDER
DO NOT BUY THIS EVERIO GZ-MG330 camcorder it you are a MAC user. Its a piece of junk when it comes to its software, and really in this day and age thats what really matters. Its files are incompatible with MAC programs, read Quicktime, iMovie. This is something identified for over 2 years in websites such as "Gadget Review"--wish I had seen it before I made the purchase. Do not take anyone's word that this or other models are compatible with MAC programs. Demand a demonstration before purchase. Its absolutely nuts that you need to go through multiple programs (all at a purchase) in order to download your video files. Note that the JVC website provides no information on reconciling the incompatibility.

Awesome camera
I purchased this camera last week and must say it's the best camcorder I've ever owned.
I've videotaped family events, church services, and special programs.
The software was easy to upload and easy to navigate. It also works well with Windows Movie Maker for adding titles/credits and editing.
At this point I have found nothing negative about this camera. Even my Dad finds it easy to operate and he's technology challenged.

Great quality movies, nice zooming power
Makes very high quality, clear movies. Great optical zoom power. Taking pictures not that great quality. The Everio program must be used to transfer to dvd for playing on dvd player. That program can get "stuck" in a loop if you have one bad movie during your transfer. I learned that the hard way, on my own, after "sleeping on the problem" for 2 weeks straight! I have found that it's best to transfer only a few at a time so that you can narrow it down to which bad apple is causing the problem.
I would like to see an improvement to everything above plus, make it so that we can use it with a power adaptor plugged in. Otherwise, the battery life is only a few hours.
Since we can't revise the star-rating, I'd like to say here that I give it 4 stars, and not 1...since I found out what the culprit was during the transfer to dvd.
