Excerpt: We purchased this camcorder shortly after our son was born-to video him, of course! This was our first camcorder purchase and it's very mid-range, it seems.
Summary: I love the zoom. I have zoomed in on windows on skyscrapers from over 20 miles away. the picture is good and the camera weighs next to nothing.
camcorder for beginners. Good price, poor quality image.

Summary: Change my Canon FS 100 camcorder by Panasonic SDR 26 motivated by its great zoom, and other qualities but I am not satisfied with the quality of the videos above low
Summary: Quick Delivery. Easy startup. 2.5-3hr battery life. Super outside/sunlight/beach videos. Simple playback/copy to PC. Average Video Software provided for PC.
Summary: I've used this several times since receiving it for Christmas. My first disappointment was finding that it had no input for external mic, which means you have to be right...
Summary: Perhaps it is in all of the literature on the web page but it is not OBVIOUS: you must have an sd card in order to operate this camera -- having it arrive via fast
Summary: Its a good camera for your first camera because it's fairly simple to upload and make videos with but the battery is internal so you cant get a bigger one and the quality
Good Camcorder Poor Software/Still Photos/Low Light

Summary: This camera does a good job of being a camcorder. I like the SD because I don't want the data that comes with HD. The SD cards are pretty cheap too.
Summary: NOT BAD FOR THE MONEY, RESOLUTION TOO LOW. SEEMS TO USE PANASONIC SD CARDS ONLY, BOUGHT A GENERIC HIGH SPEED ON ON EBAY AND DOES NOT WORK IN THE CAMCORDER BUT WORKS FINE...
Summary: on the plus it is small and very easy to use. and it has a wopping 70x zoom which is amazing. But I am not very happy with the picture quality when I was shooting at SD...
