The JVC GZ-MG555 was announced on January 7, 2007 at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada. Upon its release, it will become the highest end model in JVC's Everio G standard definition camcorder series. It can record video or still images to either the 30GB HDD (hard disc drive) or to removable SD and SDHC memory cards. Improving the connectivity of prior years and hoping to offer more convenience to users, JVC has added a docking station that works like the Handycam Stations included with Sony's HDD camcorders. One touch DVD burning and Direct Backup gives this year's Everio line a convenience oriented feature set. Priced with a MSRP of $899.95, the GZ-MG555 will hit stores in March 2007.
