Review on πŸŽ₯ Panasonic HDC-SD60S Silver HD Camcorder with 35X Intelligent Zoom (SD-Based) - Discontinued by Sai A Nyi ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

There is something quite off with the way the colors have been rendered; bright and intense hues appear gray, but the overall color is blue. On the other hand, the LCD screen of the camera displays everything exactly as it should; it's possible that the issue is with the codecs on the laptop. In the most severe instances, it is fixed by a digital filter while the processing is being done. The mode that is supposed to recognize known faces is more of a toy than anything else; in fifty percent of instances, it blurs and determines the erroneous thing. It's a minor annoyance, but you'll need to deinterlace any clips you capture with the camera because it doesn't support progressive scan. The answer is yes, today's software is able to deal with this situation quite capably. Just inserting the charging connector into the appropriate port on the back of the camera will start the process of charging the battery directly in the camera. In my perspective, charging the battery in the cradle instead of the device itself is the more convenient option. Very quick activation; it takes less than a second from the time you open the LCD screen until the recording begins. Very impressive. I am satisfied with the manual settings, which provide me the opportunity to manually fix or change the exposure, aperture, and focus. Although it is not as convenient as it is on the SD700, you do not use it very frequently. Even though I didn't anticipate it, it takes good pictures at night; however, the noise is evident, and the noise reduction only works on the borders of objects. The camera is extremely portable and lightweight (compared with the 3-matrix SD700 series). Even though there are not enough stars falling from the sky, the price is still calculated. In my opinion, the choice that best embodies the spirit of "camping" and "vacation." It is comfortable to hold in the hand and will not pull on the pocket. By the way, it can fit in the palm of your hand:) After reaching a score of 100%, the next step is to concentrate on the color reproduction.

Pros
  • Very condensed, with an even distribution of weight. Works quickly. Excellent visual resolution, good sound. Nice stabilizer. Manual settings.
Cons
  • Only interlaced mode is available, and the color rendering is really strange. You cannot screw on a protective filter, and constantly washing the lens does not enhance the picture quality.
