JVC Everio GZ-MC500: dirty pretty thing

Camcorders

JVC have pushed the envelope so far this time they're scaring us. This is the company's new 3CCD camcorder. It's so small you could swallow it and so gorgeous you might try.

Gone are the days when 3CCD camcorders meant lugging around a rocket launcher-sized behemoth, looking like you were a cameraman who'd strayed from a nearby TV crew. This 3CCD camcorder is the femme fatale of the DV world, strutting about in sexy all-black livery.

Quentin Tarantino has one JVC Everio in each pocket; Robert Rodrigez has a necklace made of them. It's so sleek and cinematic, you can imagine leaving this camcorder on your desk and returning to find it with a lit cigarette pursed in its FireWire port.

We can't wait to get our hands on one. -CS
