Easy to use. Long battery life. I also bought the VBT380 high capacity batteries. Good for a days' capture of several hours (on and off). Uses SD card for recording. 64gb card will record over 5 hours when set to the highest AVCHD resolution. Notable feature is the 50X optical zoom (excellent) with 90X hybrid and up to 500X digital zoom, makes night sky viewing very interesting. I sold my Canon HFR600 just for the Panasonic's excellent zooming capability. Plus also great for recording the kids sporting events. Easy of use of auto, manual and program functions make this device fun to use. Another plus is ability to record with the screen closed. Great for action shooting while on a bike, skiing, etc. Highly recommended!!!

Not impressed with the zoom. I bought this because everyone kept bragging about the zoom, but it's really not that good. No matter what zoom setting you choose, it's still the same on each setting. If this is the reason you are thinking to choose this camera...I'd think again.

Great value for the money. The stabilization and zoom features are very good and the unit is very easy to use. If you want a good camcorder for a small price this is the one for you.

Read ALL specs before buying knock offs. All camcorders are not created equally. Your memories are important. Trust them to Panasonic and you won’t be sorry.

no regrets, exactly what i was looking for 1080 HD Recording , video quality is excellent , no flaws works beautiful also takes pics as u record thats a plus 10 pixels just enough to get a nice picture , battery life is about 2 1/2 hours and with some extra . i personally can vouch for that . looking for a low end price and entry level HD cam then this is the perfect camara for that.
