Customer Review: Love this camera!
This camera is light, small, very intuitive and easy to maneuver. I chose the Canon DC330 over the DC310 because this model has the USB connection. I like recording on DVDs because I need to backup my computer anyway. Sound quality is very clear.
Customer Review: the mini-dvds shown do NOT work with this camcorder
I don’t know why amazon includes the sony mini-dvds on this page, because they do NOT work with this camera! I ordered them based on amazon’s recommendation and they are not compatible. I’m having a tough time finding a mini dvd-rw that will work with the camera. Otherwise, it is ok. The movie editing software isn’t very easy though, but the picture quality is fantastic. Colors are true to life and recording is easy. My two complaints are mini-dvd-rw issue and crappy software for editing. Read the rest of this entry

Panasonic SDR-H60 60GB Hard Drive Camcorder with 50x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom The SDR-H60’s 50x optical zoom lens has the power you need to take dramatic close-ups or get remarkable shots of even distant subjects. Panasonic’s Advanced Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.) suppresses the effects of handshake as you shoot. The system uses gyro sensors to detect handshake, then shifts a lens and adjusts the optical axis to compensate. The SDR-H60’s 60GB internal hard disk drive lets you record continuously for up to 54 hours in LP mode without changing a disc, tape or other recording media. Panasonic’s Anti-Shock Shield helps protect recorded video data from damage due to jolts and impact. The Drop Detect function senses if the camera is falling and moves the head away from the hard disk. You can transfer the motion-image data from the SD card or the camcorder’s hard drive right to your PC using your USB port. With the included VideoCam Suite 1.0 software, you can easily put scenes in a different order and delete the ones you don’t want.

Customer Review: If I only would have known about the editing software!
I am rating this a 2 only because you HAVE TO use the lousy software that comes with it.I would like to say that J. Henry said all that was going through my head. I don’t have the patience for this…if I could just convince my hubby to try the comparable Sony we were looking at….it just didn’t seem to be as user friendly….that might be something I can learn to deal with and overcome! Great Camera, lousy software and no way around it!
Customer Review: Great Camcorder, easy to use!
This camcorder is great, it is my first dive into the consumer video world and so far I am pretty impressed. The zoom is killer, the ease of use is great. I am a tech so I did not feel the need to install the built in software since I feel that the bundled software stinks, that goes for most consumer products. I filmed a couple of videos, plugged the camera into my pc, and voila! There they were, ready for me to watch and/or edit using any software I wished to use. This process took approximately 10 seconds. For those wondering my setup consists of Windows Vista Ultimate with Service Pack 1, but I imagine if I plugged it into xp or the other versions of vista, I would get similar results. The editing software I used is Adobe Premiere elements 4.0, although I am confident that if I plugged the videos into the built in video maker, I would not run into any problems as the format is pretty standard.

Just like the original in my FS100, and even came with a plastic snap-cover. It’s great to have a spare battery and external charger. Read the rest of this entry
