- Shoot Full HD footage with Panasonic’s HDC-SD700! With three CMOS sensors, the HDC SD700 reproduces colours and details accurately, and even records AVCHD videos. Thanks to its 35mm wide-angle lens, the Panasonic HDC-SD 700 can capture beautiful panoramic shots. Meanwhile, its 12 optical zoom is perfect for close-ups. The Power OIS prevents blur, even when your subject is in motion, and the manual ring on the HDCSD 700 lets you get creative by playing around with focus, shutter speeds

This is a great machine, the quality is incredible. For my purposes, the cheaper and probably more robust “SD” version with no inbuilt memory is probably best. I really do hope that the Mac will be able to cope with the high quality video format at some point soon (it can’t at present). By the way, I got it elsewhere far cheaper than Amazon…

To Start with i purchased a Panasonic HDC-SD 60. and to be honest it was quite a decent camcorder. At top quality recording i was generally happy with the picture, although whatever i played it back with ( even hdmi lead onto 46 inch samsung 1080p tv ) there was a slight flicker that drove me mad. It would be visable when panning or moving vertically, or even horizontally where there were any straight lines or mesh fence ( for an example ) in the picture. ( i know most people will hardly notice this, but i am just a critical kinda chap ! )
So it was returned, and i decided to bite the bullet and purchase the Panasonic HDC-SD-700.
With 1080p at 50 fps Recording i was hoping i would be a bit close to camcorder nirvana than with the SD60.
Ive used the camcorder for over a week now, on many different kinds of filming, from full auto to complete Manual controll.
Firstly. i cannot emphasize enough the picture quality at 1080p 50fps. IT IS INCREDIBLE . and trust me i dont use that word lightly. INCREDIBLE. from playing back the footage through the camcorder via Mini hdmi lead ( not supplied ) i was absolutely blown away.
What really supprised me was that i could just take the SD card out, pop it into my PS3 and play back the mts files ( yes even full 1080p 50fps ) with virtually identical playback to using the camcorder. ( if im critical theres a bit of judder but its slight )
Fan noise… Nope. ive tried very hard to hear any. and maybe im just getting old but i cant hear it.
Problems… this will be a small paragraph . When using manual control with the screen open, the Camera function button near the control ring can be obscured by the screen.
Summery. The best Picture i have ever seen. Dont hesitate to buy one. Amazon customer service has been brilliant too.

I bought one of these about a month ago and I am very impressed with the quality of the output, which it has to be said, is stunningly good.
Even at full zoom the image quality is really good and it copes well in poor light.
Yesterday I took some videos and photos of Bluebells and the colour resolution was the best I have seen for this, sometimes difficult, subject matter. (this is not the only subject that I have tested the camera with and it has performed admirably).
The lens will also take filters, if you prefer to add them here rather than through an editing package. eg. Cokin.
The card will play directly in a Panasonic TV with an SD slot, and it seems you can rename the picture files on the computer and still play them back on the TV, so you could store the images on an SD card if you wish. This does not work for videos though. They have a structure on the card that needs copying in its entirety to work.
Creating a high quality interactive disk project from the output is proving more challenging due to software problems, but this is not a problem of the camera itself and should be resolved given time.
100% recommended.
