best panasonic camcorder hd
The lens performance is amazing. Optical reach is exceptional. The camcorder is relatively light as compared to a camcorder of a few years ago and particularly considering the zoom ratio. The handling position is reasonable. Touch screen works mostly responsive. Only need to touch a second time occasionally. Screen gets full of fingerprints, but they do not show up unless you angle the screen "just so". Be careful not to scratch it. Outdoors even at +2 the screen can be a little dim.
Recording in iFrame transfers beautifully to iMovie and iPhoto. I purchased Adobe Premier Elements for Mac and can transfer recordings in 1080/60P, so that is no longer an issue. I prefer Adobe over iMovie anyway. So far I have no interest in purchasing the 3D conversion lens.
Easy to use., with clear instructions. Very versatile. We will be giving it the acid test on a cruise to Alaska this summer . Nice camcorder with lots of features, but unfortunately, the specs on your computer almost makes you have to go out and buy a whole new computer in order for this thing to work. THE GOOD, THE BAD: It had a nice durable feel to it. Appeared to be well constructed. Low lighting was to be desired. Auto focus was awesome. Features were a little confusing and tricky to use. Posting a video on Facebook from the product's software didn't work. Clarity was perfect
