Mmm, you can almost smell all those pixels from your cubical chair, now can’t you? JVC’s getting our minds in a tizzy today with two new HD camcorders that are compact for carrying and big on resolution. Both the GZ-HD5 (available in black and silver) and the GZ-HD6 (just silver) each capture video at 1,920 x 1,080 and feature Genessa technology, HDMI, component, i.LINK and mini-USB connectors, an SDHC slot and audio in / out to boot. The only major difference between the two is the internal hard drive: with the HD5, you’ll get 60GB to store all sorts of antics on, while you can double that with the extra capacious HD6. As predicted, each device is touting that elusive open offer price tag for now, but considering that we’ve only a fortnight before they hit the streets, we suppose we’ll know soon enough.

We’re not sure why JVC didn’t announce their new Everio ¥100,000 GZ-MG740 (about $942) last week with all their other models. Nevertheless, the new 40GB peer to the 30GB GZ-MG730 was just announced in Japan. Other than the disk bump (and “Victor” not “JVC” badge), it’s a spec-for-spec twin to the 7.38-megapixel model MG730 which shoots 720 x 480 pixel video — right on down to that tiny 1.3-inch hard disk. That makes it the flagship model of their non-HD shooters. But you don’t really care about non-HD camcorders anymore do you? No worries, we can respect that.
