Take my review with grain of salt as it is my first camcorder. This camcorder takes stunning shots under daylight/decent indoor light- but the video quality become poor under low light condition- which is kind of expected from a consumer grade camcorder. Sound recording quality is astounding- I could not believe the recording in 5.1 channel sound when played back in my home theater.
Picture quality in still camera more expectedly horrible so is the supplied editing software. HDwriter is big buggy and unintuitive. Panasonic battery is expensive and the supplied battery gets you around 50 minutes of recording. Aftermarket batteries are there but they will not work with panasonic charger.
Overall, a good value when purchasing a Canon vixia is not an option.

This is my first HD camcorder. It performs well in day time shooting; however, the video is a little grainy at night time. At this price, it is still a bargain.

I had a specific use for a High Definition video camera, but didn’t want to pay an exhorbitant price. I also found great reviews on the Panasonic cameras, and this one was no exception. I must admit that I haven’t had a chance to really try it out as I had intended, as my project that I bought it for, primarily, sort of got “put on hold” for the moment. What pictures I have taken though, look really good, and the ZOOM is really nice and easy to use. I really like the Touch Screen, and the fact that it has a 16 meg card included, as opposed to many that have only an 8 Meg. For the price, though, I suggest you GO FOR IT! I haven’t had a chance to try out the software yet, but some reviews say it is marginal at best, but sufficient for the average user. I want to do some Video Editing, which is quite demanding I understand. I have yet to experience that!

This is a great camera and very small. It takes good movies and a nice touch screen.
