Description
Never Miss a Detail with 1920x1080 Full-HD RecordingImages recorded by customary HD camcorders have only 1,440 horizontal pixels, while full-HD camcorders have 1,920. That's about 30 percent more recording pixels! The d is a level of detail and resolution that goes beyond anything you've ever experienced before. And because full-HD recordings contain a enormous amount of picture information, they look beautiful not only on high-definition TVs, but on standard-definition TVs as well.
Advanced O.I.S. Reduces Camera Shudder
Camera shake happens. Unsteady hands, shooting while in step: these factors can reduce the quality of your video. But Panasonic has developed its best-ever built-in Visual Image Stabilization, which compensates for hand-shake and helps keep your videos frizzled, steady and blur-free.

Customer Reviews
Remarkable performance! Bad battery location..I've hardened it twice on vacations to Scotland and England. Full 1080i i recordings. Does a bad job in well lighten areas, not so good in poorly lit areas. I havent practised any problems with this camcorder. It would be nice to have a hard drive instead of the DVD, but the SD cards toil great and easy transfer to my Mac..The colors are vivid and detailed and its a bargan at it s cost out..
It also takes pretty descent stlll shots too! With a larger mobile, its a little awkward, so design leaves a lot to be desired, but it will deliver exceptional HD material.
Loyal little secret
I've owned this memorandum for 2 years now and it has been really great.
I use it to shoot music videos and the trait of the sequences shot outdoors is very good and the colours are quite hairy.
The battery life is excellent. Very easy to edit in Final Cut Reveal software.
The only cons are:
The depth of field is a bit tricky and not great even when you do get it to occupation. You could probably buy a lens for this.
It shoots very grainy in low light and requires polished lighting after sundown.
You can't move the camera fast at (eg. to do a sweeping landscape instantly)- otherwise the images are grainy.

sweepings
This only records to the dvd about 76% of the once upon a time, it does not even tell you that there is an errror. you don't find out after you try to watch it. I now have to buy a different one after spending $700 on this a year ago since we have missed to many events that we deliberation we recorded...but didn't.
Remarkable camera
I had this camera with me in a stagger to California and it was great. Very good battery life, great colors. Comprehensive very satisfied with it.
Able for the price
This camera works brilliant and has spectacular HD quality. Low-light shooting is a bit of an issue with auto-focal point, but overall it was an excellent buy for the price.
