Good camera. Doesn't have a lot of special features but it gets the job done. I've used a DVR camera like this before and so when mine died, I had to buy another. My old one lasted for several years so I trust this new one will last for a good quality amount of time too. It's a big of a bulky camera but I find it has better perspective lens than others I've seen. The quality is so-so, but the camera is so hardy, even though I've dropped it several times, like a clutz, it still keeps working.
This is my second Panasonic MiniDV camcorder. I like the horitzontal tape load, powerful 34X optical zoom, joy stick and ease of use. The only thing I don't like is the picture quility in low light situations. Picture gets very grainy. Overall I think i's a great entry level camera for the prixe and it's tiny size.
To be honest I haven't used the camera very much yet, but love the features of this camera and it's compact size. I decided to buy this camera to produce instructional videos for using the products I make. I didn't want to spend a lot, but needed a camera that did a good job and produced a clear pucture.
This is a starter model it does a lot. The menu settings are simple are simple and easy to use. A larger screen would be nice but at he price the value is fantastic. Panasonic is dedicated to consumer grade market for its products and is way ahead of the others in fulfilling the need.
Easy to use and very compact. does'nt have all the extras that some recorders have, thats why it easy to use. I bought it because of it's small size.
