Enjoy vivid color, crisp detail, and subtle gradation with 3CCD, the system used by most professional broadcast cameras. In a 1CCD system, all incoming light information is processed by the same CCD. The more advanced 3CCD system uses three distinct CCDs for processing, so there is absolutely no light loss. The result: beautifully rendered, natural-looking images every time. Less

I decided to pick up a camcorder for an upcoming vacation, so I started doing some research. I read all of the reviews I could find, did side-by-side comparisons with the camcorders in my price range, and went to a local shop to check out a bunch of them in person. I finally decided on the GS35,... Read full review »

Unacceptably grainy & washed out picture with Indoor lighting.

Pros A great zoom, small, weight, good capability - in sunlight only. Good sound.

Cons Forget about using the GS35 indoors/night: Grainy details & Washed out colours.

Recommended it? No

Picture Quality (...or lack thereof)

As a former owner of a commendable Panasonic NVDS27 which was pilfered, I sought a replacement. Several reviews led me to believe that the GS35 was a good & relatively inexpensive camcorder. But, I really should have paid more attention to the... Read full review »

Pros Hard disk storage, high end sensors, ease of use

Cons Somewhat pricey, requires a fairly new computer to handle video processing.

Recommended it? Yes

The Panasonic SDR-H200 is one of a new generation of camcorders based with hard drive storage. The advantages to this are almost too numerous to mention, but here are a few: You never have to look for media – not tapes, not discs – it's built in. Storage capacity is amazing – the 30gb disk holds... Read full review »

Pros Excellent color accuracy and low light performance. Hard Drive convenience with Mpeg-2...

Cons No separate view finder. Can't offload movies to computer on battery power.

Recommended it? Yes

If you are shopping for a camcorder right now, I feel your pain. There are a lot of things to think about if you are in the market for one of these things at the moment. In five years this will be a much easier thing to shop for, but right now the choices can be utterly bewildering.
