Review Panasonic PVDV52 MiniDV Digital Camcorder w/ 2.5" Color LCD / Panasonic PV-DV52:

Offering high-resolution digital video, high-quality digital still images and PC interoperability, the new Panasonic Palmcorder MultiCam digital camcorders combine fun and function for beginners and accomplished videographers alike. More than just a camcorder, every new model features the built-in PhotoShot digital still camera feature, letting consumers enjoy two ways to capture their memories in a single, compact package: digital video and digital still photos. With more PC-friendly features than ever, the new digital camcorders are ready for a variety of multimedia applications, and can also easily serve as web cameras for home videoconferencing. All models feature an i. LINK IEEE 1394 PC interface, making it easy to download digital recordings (still images and moving pictures) to computers where they can be edited, included in e-mail messages or used in the creation of web sites. The PV-DV52 features a high-quality 680K CCD and 2. 5" color LCD monitor. The PV-DV52 can record still pictures on DV tape. It includes PhotoVu Link with an RS-232 serial connection. Panasonic's low-end MiniDV camcorder, the PV-DV52, doesn't have all of the features of its pricier siblings-like a zoom mic or a larger LCD-but it does capture high-quality video in a light, tight package. [+]
Although its 10x optical zoom is lower than other camcorders, it still provides a close-up image for average recording, and a hefty 700x digital zoom capability as well. The image stabilization feature of the PV-DV52 worked well, keeping our frame steady even during one-handed filming. The PV-DV52 will capture still images as well, but only at 640 x 480 resolution. It also stores images to tape, which sometimes makes them difficult to locate in order to transfer them to PC. Speaking of transferring, you'll need a FireWire port to move video and stills over at high speed, as the camera doesn't include USB connectivity. It does offer a serial connection, but that is only for transferring still images, as moving video via a serial connection would be akin to draining a lake with a stirring straw. Some of Panasonic's more expensive MiniDV camcorders offer a 3. 5-inch LCD, but the 2. 5-inch color LCD of the PV-DV52 proved large enough for average use. The PV-DV52 also offers some nice features for low-light recording (although not for no-light recording), including the MagicPix digital enhancement mode and a built-in light with a 10-foot range. Tapes eject from the top of the PV-DV52, allowing you to keep the camera on an optional tripod when popping in a new tape. And the battery-which lasted a little over an hour-charges separately from the camera, which makes it easier to have a backup fully charged. For the price, the Panasonic PV-DV52 allows for high-quality video recording without requiring a big investment. It's a great starter camcorder for a family on a budget. -J. Curtis Pros: Light and compact Sharp video image Inexpensive Cons: No storage card for stills Lower optical zoom Digital camcorders have finally reached both a level of both technological sophistication and affordability, and Panasonic's PV-DV52 is prime example. Casual video users will be pleased with the 2. 5-inch LCD screen, 10x optical zoom, digital still capability, and a built-in video light. Lens With an optical zoom magnification of 10x, the DV52 also has a digital zoom, which works by electronically enhancing the optical image, and can magnify the picture up to 700 times. The digital image stabilization system keeps the picture steady and solid throughout zooms and camera shakes. Digital Stills The camcorder has a mode called progressive photo shoot, so that images captured will not have the jagged lines of interlaced video and instead come out clear and undistorted. Inputs and Outputs The DC252 comes with the standard DV IEEE 1394 port (also known as FireWire) for a super-fast, lossless connection to a PC or other DV machines. RCA connections are used for direct viewing on a television or VHS dubbing. MiniDV Format MiniDV digital technology delivers clear, sharp video with up to 500 lines of horizontal resolution-far superior to the 240 lines of resolution offered by 8mm camcorders. You'll also get minimal color noise interference for a more stable picture. Using Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) technology, Panasonic's MiniDV camcorders provide pristine sound. Choose from 12-bit or 16-bit audio recording modes. 16-bit audio includes a set of stereo audio tracks to produce CD-quality sound. 12-bit audio utilizes two sets of audio tracks so you can easily add background music or commentary into your videos while maintaining the existing soundtrack. This is all delivered on a cassette that's 1/12th the size of a standard VHS tape. A MiniDV tape offers digital recording time of two full hours-20 times the capacity of a CD.

A low-light environment is no problem for the GR-DVM55U. The special night shooting function enhances low-light sensitivity so you can still capture clear images at night in full color. There is also a built-in digital still camera that captures images in many modes-such as full screen, frame, pin-up, negative, or multipicture-onto a tape.

In addition to the standard IEEE 1394 DV interface, the serial terminal allows you to use the provided JLIP software to easily control image capture and linear editing from your computer. Serial terminals are compatible with practically any computer for greater connectivity. Also included are an AC power adapter/charger, rechargeable lithium-ion battery, remote control, CD-ROM software for photo editing, shoulder strap, jack box, PC connection cable, JLIP cable, AV cable, and editing cable.

  • Model: Sony DCRPC110 Digital HandyCam Camcorder with Builtin Digital Still Mode

Review Sony DCRPC110 Digital HandyCam Camcorder with Builtin Digital Still Mode / Sony DCRPC110:

Sony DCR-PC110 digital Handycam camcorder offers higher resolution, more hours of recording and more professional features than any analog camcorder. The digital technology delivers a richer and more accurate picture quality than the analog format. Featuring a 1/4" Advanced HAD CCD with 1,070,000 pixels, the camcorder provides stunning detail and clarity, with exceptional video and still image performance. Carl Zeiss professional quality precision lens uses a unique lens coating that reduces glare and flaring, while providing improvement in detail and contrast. Rechargeable Lithium Ion battery means no "memory effect" like other battery types can experience. DCR-PC110 features MPEG movie mode, and Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) stereo audio recording for an incredible 96db dynamic range. It is a sure declaration that Sony is moving forward in the integration of DV and digital stills cameras. The Sony DCR-PC110 Mini DV camcorder is loaded with more goodies than a piƱata, and in a package smaller than a box of Pop-Tarts. Its novel-length owner's manual is 166 pages of tiny type with, thankfully, dozens of instructive illustrations with circles and arrows. To control all these features, the PC110 is covered with buttons, switches, and toggles that would intimidate even the most seasoned techno-geek. [+]
But damn if this digital camcorder isn't fun to use, despite a couple of ergonomic hiccups, plus it stores great images thanks to its Carl Zeiss lens, and, more importantly, it will elicit many oohs and aahs from the techno-envious. Like most Mini DV models, the PC110 can take still pictures and store them either on tape or on a flash media card-in this case, Sony's proprietary Memory Stick. Unlike most DV camcorders, the PC110 also can record 15- and 60-second MPEGs, saving you the trouble of having to convert your footage to this e-mail-friendly format in your PC. The camcorder comes with a 4 MB Stick, which holds just six high-resolution stills, and is useless unless you have a Memory Stick-equipped Sony VAIO, a Memory Stick accessory drive, or a built-in USB port. The PC110 also enables you to spice up your recorded video with an array of picture and digital effects, such as negative, sepia tone, or black and white. You also can zoom in during playback of a recorded image. These extra effects are for those folks who do in-camera editing and can be output only through the camcorder's analog outputs, not via i. Link/FireWire. If you've got video-editing software, you can add many of these effects and more on your PC. The PC110 also includes in-camera digital-editing compiling capabilities-choose in-and-out edit points for particular scenes, set the scene sequence (up to 20 scenes), and the camera automatically goes back and forth to output the image to whatever tape player you've connected the camcorder to. This program editing is a bit convoluted, but it's better than doing it manually. The biggest problem is the placement of frequently accessed control buttons and jacks. For instance, the zoom and still-photo shutter release buttons are located at the front of the camcorder, vaguely where your pinky is supposed to be. But the pinky isn't the most dexterous digit, and the hand-strap further limits the little finger's angular movement necessary to manipulate either switch. The PC110's stocky design also necessitates the scattering of the various inputs and outputs. The microphone, headphone, and DC power inputs are located on upper-right side; the i. Link (FireWire), USB, and AC power are on the front below the lens; the S-Video output is on the lower-right side under the hand strap; and the analog A/V minijack is located to the right of the power/standby/record switch. And being that this is a tiny camcorder, the 2. 5-inch LCD viewscreen also makes it difficult to make out the details in a crowded frame. The menu does include two sets of LCD brightness controls to ameliorate the lack of LCD area. -Stewart Wolpin Pros: 1-megapixel still-shot capability Fun to use Records 15- and 60-second MPEGs onto Memory Stick Informative illustrated manual Quality Carl Zeiss lens Cons: Bundled Memory Stick is only 4 MB Expensive Controls can be difficult to use.

Review Canon ZR60 MiniDV Digital Camcorder with 2.5" LCD, 18x Optical Zoom and Image Stabilization / Canon 8429A001:

Designed for point-and-shoot simplicity, Canon's ZR series camcorders allow everyone to get great results without any effort at all. Place the camcorder in your hand, and it fits comfortably and securely, like you have owned it for years. No learning curve is necessary as you soon find yourself shooting crisp, vibrant video and life-like digital photos, just by pressing a single button. Canon, the trusted name in optics for decades, has made capturing memories more convenient, exciting, and easier than ever. Canon ZR60 brings you all the benefits of digital video: a digital photo mode, a 2. 5" flexible color view screen, 18X optical/360X digital zoom, a Color Night mode, an image stabilization feature, a high-quality microphone, a built-in analog to digital converter, and much more! Looking for an easy way to break into the world of digital video? Look no further than the Canon ZR60, which makes capturing valuable family memories as simple as pressing a button. Connect your camcorder to a computer running Windows or Mac operating systems, and experience the digital world like it was meant to be: quick, seamless, and fun. Lens The ZR60 features a high-performance 1/6-inch 680,000-pixel CCD to capture high-quality video and digital photos. The zoom technology found in the ZR60 lens is the same as Canon uses in its broadcast TV lenses. The ZR60 is fitted with a high-performance 18x optical zoom lens, which can easily handle all your shooting needs-from wide-angle shots of all the family at the reunion to close-up sports action at full telephoto. [+]
The ZR60's 360x digital zoom significantly expands the telephoto magnification of the subject. Image Stabilization Canon's image-stabilization system corrects camera shake caused by, for example, an unsteady hand. This image-stabilization system makes for smoother and steadier video even with hand-held shots, at full telephoto, and with shots taken from a moving car. Digital Stills For added flexibility, you can take up to 700 still images on a MiniDV single tape. The camcorder records the photos for approximately 6 seconds, as well as recording the sound for your verbal notes or narration. You can search through the recorded tape for your photos using the supplied remote control. This photo-search feature allows you to search for images recorded in photo mode. Search forward or backward through the images one at a time, or plus or minus 10 images from the current position. More Features 2. 5-inch fold-out color LCD screen and 0. 33-inch color viewfinder The My Camera function is designed to let you customize a number of features, including start-up image and sound, shutter sound, start-stop sound, and the self-timer sound The full-function wireless remote control works at distances up to 16 feet Inputs and Outputs The ZR60 comes with the standard IEEE 1394 port (also referred to as FireWire), which provides a lossless connection to a PC or other DV machines. Additionally, the ZR60 features two types of analog audio and video inputs and outputs: composite and S-video. The analog audio inputs of the ZR60 let you perform dub or insert editing from CDs, cassettes, microphones, or the soundtracks of other videocassettes. MiniDV Format MiniDV is the new preferred format for personal and broadcast-quality video, highly regarded for its high audio and image quality. With up to 540 lines of horizontal resolution and minimum color noise, MiniDV delivers a 20 percent clearer picture than analog camcorder formats. This is all delivered on a cassette that's 1/12th the size of a standard VHS tape. A MiniDV tape offers digital recording time of 2 full hours-20 times the capacity of a CD. Power, Size, and Contents The ZR60 comes with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack, which has an approximate battery life of 75 minutes when using the LCD screen.

Review Sony DCRPC330 MiniDV 3.3-Megapixel Handycam Camcorder / Sony DCRPC330:

DCR-PC330 MiniDV Handycam camcorder is the industry's first single-CCD (charge coupled device), 3. 31-megapixel model, affording customers the highest quality combination of digital video and still camera optics. The new DCR-PC330 MiniDV Handycam model has an Advanced HADTM (hole accumulated diode) CCD imager, a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T lens and a new advanced primary color filter, which together create outstanding video and digital photographs. Beyond Sony's standard advanced features such as Super NightShot infrared system for shooting video in total darkness and the Super SteadyShot system for image stabilization, this new model also has a new smooth interval record feature, enabling smooth time-lapse recording. Along with a 2. 5-inch hybrid touch panel liquid crystal display (LCD) for an easy-access, easy-to-see menu, the new 3-D user menu is customizable into a Personal Menu. Once users assemble their favorite features into their own Personal Menu, it takes just one touch on the LCD to facilitate a personal shooting style.

The new three-color filter uses proprietary technology that quadruples the area for each primary color, resulting in more true-to-life photographs and video. [+]
Like the human eye distinguishes color through red, green and blue photoreceptors, the new primary color filter uses the same colors to deliver vibrant and color-rich video and still images. The manual focus ring together with the 10X optical/120X precision digital zoom gives the user even more options for creativity and composition. The DCR-PC330 MiniDV Handycam camcorder also has specific Sony still camera features for shooting crisp clear pictures in poor lighting conditions.

  • Model: Canon Optura 100MC MiniDV 1-Megapixal Digital Camcorder w/ Built-in Digital Still Mode & 8MB SD/ MMC

Review Canon Optura 100MC MiniDV 1-Megapixal Digital Camcorder w/ Built-in Digital Still Mode & 8MB SD/ MMC / Canon 100 MC:

Being a hybrid product means that one can successfully carry the workload of two. The Optura 100MC takes the concept of a hybrid to a whole new level. The perfect fusion of camcorder and still camera, the Optura 100MC successfully manages the task of both. Versatility and style is the backbone of the Optura 100MC. An extensive feature set and attention to detail make every shooting experience a sheer delight. Stunning video and razor sharp still images are flawlessly combined to produce a superior imaging tool. Now displaying your creation on screen or paper has the same impact: impressive. The biggest knock on the Optura Pi was its lack of a high-resolution digital still mode. Sure, it took pictures, but with a resolution of only 640 x 480. With the Optura 100MC, Canon has addressed this issue by including a 1. [+]
3-megapixel still-shot mode, and created an outstanding product. Most of the features that made the original so compelling have returned, including the progressive scan CCD (perfect for recording and analyzing that golf swing), and optical image stabilization. The zoom lens is a beefy 10x, but using the digital zoom will push that number up to 200x. The LCD monitor is 2. 5 inches, but the camcorder has taken a hearty step down in size itself, so those inches are well spent. The camcorder itself has joined the growing trend of vertically oriented design, making the Optura 100MC a true handheld model. As with all DV camcorders, the Optura 100MC includes an IEEE 1394 port to transfer video footage for editing or dubbing. Additionally, the new Optura includes S-video and composite input and output ports, making it possible to archive all your old analog footage in the pristine DV format. Also included in the kit are a battery, wireless remote, S-video cable, stereo video cable, and 8 MB MMC card.

Review JVC GRDVM80U MiniDV Digital Camcorder with Built-in Digital Still Mode / JVC GRDVM80U:

The GR-DVM80 is a Mini DV camcorder from the middle of JVC's digital line, and when they say mini, they mean mini. This camcorder is really no larger than an average coffee mug, but it packs quite a punch into its compact package. Besides being able to shoot video, this camcorder also shoots digital still images. The progressive-scan, 0. 25-inch, 680, 000-pixel CCD will give you clearer still pictures than the interlaced-scan CCDs used on most camcorders. The camcorder stores still images on tape; it doesn't work with flash memory cards like SmartMedia or Memory Stick. JVC has given you choices as far as monitoring your subjects, in that the GR-DVM80 features both a 2. 5-inch color LCD screen, and a more traditional, 113k-pixel color viewfinder. The camcorder is also equipped with a 10x optical zoom range and 200x digital zoom functions. This camcorder also offers an IEEE-1394 interface that lets you transfer your videos digitally to your computer for editing. [+]
