JVC GZ-HD620 Camcorder Clips Self Streamed At 720P
Here are several clips taken by Steven while on vacation in the USA.
There are scenes from New York City, Niagara Falls, Orlando Fla, and a time lapse shot in Miami Fla. This is the same camera i bought back in March this year and reviewed HERE and HERE.
The clips were downloaded from YouTube via KeepTube as 720p mp4′s and then loaded into Cyberlink Powerdirector 8 Ultra, then produced as an mpg at 720p. The final step was to convert the mpg file into a self streaming flv file with AVS Video Converter. The video and preview files were then uploaded with FTP to my server.
This is an excellent camcorder for anyone looking for a first camcorder, or upgrading from an older SD camcorder. I actually met Steven here when he asked a few questions about my initial review, and wound up buying the same camcorder.We have kept in touch and he shared these videos with us.
I have been told the battery life is not the greatest on the gz-hd620 but for the low price of this unit and all the features it has its just best to buy an extended life battery or carry a spare with you when planning on recording long videos. This camcorder blows away its Sony comparison. So far the best place i have found to buy online is Amazon.com. Prices have came down a bit since i bought mine in March.
You can full screen this video and any others on this website by clicking the <> on the player control bar. Press escape to cancel full screen mode.
I to have this same camera, but cannot seem to get the video transfered to DVD, with decent quality. The software it came with, and probably my “older” pc contributes, however, what I see here on your site gives me a great feeling that it can be done. Can you PLEASE provide any and all specifics, ie software, where purchased/downloaded, how to, and PC requirements to get my HD video to a HD or close to HD quality DVD.
You need a FAST computer and a minimum of 4 megs ram. I am running Windows 7 Professional under an Intel P4 2.66 with 8mb ram.
My choice of production software is Cyberlink Powerdirector 8 ultra. They now are up to PD 9 which i have not upgraded to yet. They do have a down loadable demo: http://www.cyberlink.com/products/powerdirector/overview_en_US.html
Best bet is to copy the .mts files to your computer hard drive from the camcorder and import them from there.
