The good: The JVC Everio GZ-EX250 has extensive Wi-Fi capabilities, good automatic shooting, and extras like time-lapse and slow-motion video capture.
The bad: The GZ-EX250's HD video is merely OK, mostly due to high amounts of fringing; some of the Wi-Fi features can be tricky to set up and use; and it uses electronic image stabilization only for its 40x zoom.
The bottom line: As entry-level camcorders go, JVC's Everio GZ-EX250 is an OK option, especially if Wi-Fi functionality and a 40x zoom lens are at the top of your want list.
