What’s in the Box?
The GZ-MS100 ships with the following items:
-AC Adapter
-BN-VF808U Battery Pack
-Audio/Video Cable
-USB Cable
-CD-ROM
You'll have to invest in a couple of SD cards or a single SDHC card. A higher capacity backup battery is a wise choice too.

Other Features (4.0)
Video Light - GZ-MS100's LED video light emits a pale beam upon your subject. You can access the video light from the Menu, but JVC should have included an external video light button.
Battery Info - JVC offers a nice capacity and battery meter, accessed by pressing the Info button in the LCD cavity. When initially pressed, a screen containing a pie graph appears, accompanied by a list of the remaining recordable times per each recording quality level. Pressing the Info button again cues a screen containing a vertical battery life meter and remaining digital minute display.
Effects- Located in the Manual Setting menu, JVC offers a handful of digital image effects, just in case you don't have time to apply them in post-editing. The Effects consist of Sepia, Monotone, Classic Film, and Strobe.
Backlight Compensation- When a subject is underexposed amidst a background that has a normal exposure, Backlight Compensation boosts the overall exposure of the image so the subject is brought into light. This is helpful for shots where the sun is directly behind your subject.
Upload Mode- In order to utilize the YouTube Upload function, you must set the GZ-MS100 to Upload Rec On, which is done by pressing the Upload button in the LCD cavity. Upload Rec mode also limits all clips to a maximum of 10 minutes so they fit the YouTube length requirements.
