Users can select from four different recording resolutions: Full HD 1080 (1920 x 1080/30p), HD 720 (1280 x 720/60p), iFrame (960 x 540/30p) and Quarter High Definition (960 x 540/30p). The new PICSIO cameras also offer time-lapse recording, which reduces hours-long segments to mere seconds. The GC-FM2's special conveniences include a slide-out USB connector, so no connecting cable is needed, while the GC-WP10's claim to fame is that it's waterproof to a depth of 10 feet. The JVC Picsio GC-FM2 will be available in early September for $179.95. The GC-WP10 will hit the shelves in late September for $199.95."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/wpt/auto/1282912871.usr11334.jpg" style="border: 0;" /></p><p>The pocket video camera market is certainly one area that most manufacturers now seem to have a product available. With so many choices available there should be one available to meet just about everyones needs. These models from JVC seem to cover all the required bases with decent looks, 1080 HD resolutions and even waterproof to 10 feet with the WP10. I just wonder how long devices like these will last as slowly but surely mobile phones increase in power and functionality get the capability to perform just as well. We can't be far off surely?</p>
