Waste of money. for my opinion

The viewfinder is useless. According to my experience, it's too small and dark to see anything properly. It's a hassle to keep adjusting it all the time. The only good thing is that the camcorder is lightweight without it. However, without a viewfinder, it's difficult to get the right framing and focus. Overall, I regret buying this product and wish I had invested my money in something else.

Pros
  • High-quality video recording capabilities
Cons
  • Lack of manufacturer support for repairs and updates

great alternative to the trv950

The PD-DV952 is a great camcorder. I tried it once and the image quality was excellent. I suggest you buy this as it's really cheap considering it's a 3CCD camcorder. Buy this and you won't regret it.

Pros
  • Includes built in light, zoom mic, remote control and external mic input
Cons
  • I'll write back later

Great camcorder

I've been searching a lot for a quality camcorder lately. This turned out to be the winner. After trying many Sony and Canon 2CCD products, both were good, this camcorder had more products. As this is a 3CCD camcorder, the colors and sharpness are EXCEPTIONAL. With this camera you can shoot a professional documentary. The only problem with all sub-$3,000 camcorders is that you will have trouble recording in low light. The low light features on Panasonics, Sonys and Canons are inferior, so don't

Pros
  • 10x optical, 700x digital, image stabilized zoom
Cons
  • Dimming
