Review on Panasonic HDC-SD80R HD Camcorder (Red) - SD Card technology (Discontinued model) by Eric Jenkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

After the hiccup, the camcorder works great!

The first camcorder I received had major problems with internal components. During the recording he made a terrible buzz that was recorded on the records. Thanks to Revains' easy return policy, I sent it back a few days after receiving it. Revain promptly sent a new Panasonic camcorder. I had no problems with that. He makes very good videos. The zoom button is sleek and easily accessible. Still images are sharp and clear. Close-ups are clear and focused. The video quality is what I was hoping for. My YouTube uploads are clean and crisp. I didn't use the software that came with the camcorder as I already had MoviePlus for videos and Zoombrowser for photos so I can't comment on the software. The size of the camcorder is suitable for film recording. Remember to close the lens cap manually. I don't like where the button to start recording is, it's inconvenient to reach it without moving the camera. I use the record button on the touchscreen, which is much easier to reach and press. I use touchscreen buttons all the time. I really like the touch screen.
