it’s very simple. If you can’t decide what camcorder to buy, and you want the best mini-DV one (to get full quality from your video, since HD and DVD camcorders record in Mpeg2 format), then buy this one.Even other panasonic ones, more advanced in model numbers are not that great as this one. Basically because it has a mic connection, so you can attach your own external mic which is what everyone should do to get good sound and no amateur one.Also you can manually adjust the focus with the ring, no servo-motor adjustment (you get automatic too of course). Manual-white balance is there too.It’s a 3CCD and the picture quality is great even at low light.I checked every other camera out there at this moment, and none of them have everything I wanted, except this one.

Had it since 19 June, 2006, and picture quality is excellent with the 3ccd, good features overall, allows manual focus and other settings. Its digital picture function, however, is not as good as a single function digital camera, just as a digital camera is not as good as a camcorder to record videos. Joystick is difficult to handle in one hand, got to use the other hand to change functions. If only optical zoom is a bit better than 12x.Overall, I like it, and with $300 off the panasonic list price, it is a bargain (for now at least).

This camera is the answer to my prayers. I’m a film student and poor. i needed a camera to replace the cheap one i was using but couldn’t afford the 3000$ models i would’ve liked. After considerable research i got me one of these baby’s and couldn’t be happier with it. It has a huge lens for such a small camera and takes a beautifully clear picture-perhaps not the sharpest picture in the world but the color clarity is so amazing it really doesn’t have to be razor sharp. There is zero color noise and I’ve filmed hours worth of footage on one charge. All in all if your a serious filmmaker and have a small budget this is a good option. It wont get you an oscar but it will most definitely get you started, and if you ever get a better one this camera could still perform just fine as a backup or secondary unit-it competes with the prosumer models
