JVC GC-PX1 Hybrid Camera First Impressions Review

Design & Appearance

If you like chatting with friends about funny-looking cameras, you may want to bring up the JVC GC-PX1 at your next meeting. The word "hybrid" does capture the camera's style quite well, as it simultaneously has the design of both a camera and a camcorder. The lens barrel on the front looks like it was absconded from a JVC camcorder, while the back of the PX1 has the design of a traditional digital camera (as does the right side grip). Safe to say, the GC-PX1 is an unusual product in terms of its looks. Pictures tell this story the best, though, so check through the product shots below to get a better idea of what we're talking about.
