These models are particularly notable for their hard disk drive (HDD) storage, offering users the convenience of storing videos without the need for tape or external media. With compact designs, they cater to the needs of casual users and aspiring videographers alike.

The GZ-MG37U features a generous 30GB internal HDD, while the GZ-MG27U is equipped with a 20GB HDD.
