    It’s not the first “women-only” camcorder out there, but JVC’s Everio GZ-HM350 (announced [JP] today) has surely the best specs. It’s not based on an existing model but rather one of three new full HD camcorders JVC announced today (the black and silver models have the same specs as this special version).

    Buyers can expect the following features:

    • 1/4.1 CMOS sensor
    • 36x optical zoom
    • 32GB internal flash memory
    • SD/SDHC card slot
    • AVCHD compatibility
    • Windows XP/Vista/7 support
    • YouTube connectivity
    • mini HDMI, mini USB ports
    • 2.7-inch LCD
    • weight: 260g (battery included)

    The special version and bag (pictured above) is limited to 100 sets only (exclusively available through JVC’s Japanese online shop). Price: $910, including the pouch. The camera will go on sale in Japan this month, together with the black and silver models (which will be available everywhere).
