pcauthority reviews the JVC Everio GZ-HD300 and writes:
“So the Everio GZ-HD300 is very much a point-and-shoot camcorder. But that doesn’t mean it has inferior image quality. It can’t compete with premium models, but in decent lighting it provides very good colour and the high data rate keeps compression artefacts to a minimum.”
geek.com reviews the JVC Everio GZ-HD300 and writes:
“The camcorder is quite small, which is one of its main strengths, but consumers will want to keep in mind the implications of this. There are few advanced features, like microphone connections, and users should not expect to see an accessory shoe or things along those lines. “

Camcorder HQ reviews the JVC Everio GZ-HD300 and writes:
“The Everio GZ-HD300 represents the latest technology in high-definition camcorders. It is capable of recording video in full HD with its CMOS sensor, at a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, providing high levels of detail and definition.”
reviewed.com reviews the JVC Everio GZ-HD300 and writes:
“As with all new JVC camcorders, the HD300 offers the mildly outdated-sounding “Laser Touch,” a touch-sensitive strip on the left side of the LCD panel. This strip, called the Laser Touch by JVC, is used to navigate menus, make manual adjustments, and select options.”
Trusted Reviews reviews the JVC Everio GZ-HD300 and writes:
“The JVC Everio GZ-HD300, like other Everios before it, is a bit of a maverick. Although a number of the smaller camcorder manufacturers have attempted to shoehorn HD video quality into a pocket-friendly format, only Sony’s HDR-TG3 has come close to getting the balance right. But JVC achieves superior image quality and adds over five hours of storage in a still very compact package.”
JVC GZ-HD300 – Konica Minolta Lens
A new Konica Minolta HD lens, developed especially for Everio, provides a high-performance “eye” for the capture of Full HD resolution images, and also delivers a high optical zoom ratio of 20x which is among the highest for HD camcorders.
JVC GZ-HD300 – Blu-ray Compatible
All HD Everios now feature the new AVCHD UXP mode with an unprecedented bit rate of up to 24Mbps to deliver more detailed, sharper images with less noise. UXP mode is ideal for storing to Blu-ray or an external hard disk drive. All the recording modes for HD Everio models–UXP, XP, SP, and EP–use Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution.
JVC GZ-HD300 – 1920×1080/60P Output
Using the same technology as GENESSA HD displays, this function outputs a 1080 scanning line image at progressive 60fps so you can enjoy uncompromising picture quality on a TV that accepts 1080P input.
JVC GZ-HD300 – Face Detection
Intelligently identifies up to 16 faces then accurately adjusts the focus and exposure for sharp, beautiful images.
JVC – GZ-HD300 – New Laser Touch Operation
An evolved version of our previous Laser Touch Operation, this system now allows Zooming and Recording using either the Laser Touch or standard zoom lever and REC button. Of course, browsing through indexes and menu selections is easy as ever.
JVC GZ-HD300 – Auto Power On/Off and Auto Lens Cover
With Everio, you don’t have to use the power switch each time you operate because the power is linked to the LCD’s opening and closing. Just open the LCD; the power turns on and the lens cover automatically opens. Just close the LCD to power off and close the lens cover too.
