I am not disappointed, the quality is satisfying.

The photo is terrible, but I took the camera to shoot video, so the quality of the photos did not upset me. On the street it shoots perfectly (bright saturated colors, a clear image), indoors under artificial lighting at 3+. The stabilizer works out for 5+, unless of course you are hungover. The camera is cool, I have already shot a lot of material (I like to travel). There is enough charge if you don’t watch the footage every minute. In general, I am satisfied. I'm not sure what you can buy…

Pros
  • Of the main advantages, this is of course a zoom, a good optical stabilizer, compactness, good build quality.
Cons
  • Poor video quality in low light.

A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

The stability and zoom justify buying this camera in any case. It still shoots better than something in the phone (stub, zoom, autofocus), but it doesn’t take up much space. It is highly recommended for those who value efficiency and convenience more than the vaunted "HD". Has pros: Compactness. Quality of assembly, appearance. Ergonomics. Excellent stabilizer. Supermegazoom (on such and such a matrix - of course!). Price. Got cons: Monstrous display. Video shooting in uncomfortable lighting…

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

In principle, a good video is obtained for such money - clear, rich, the optics are decent, the optical stabilizer does an excellent job. I really didn’t like the quality of the photos if you shoot in a room or in artificial lighting (there is a lot of green, it makes noise, the image is grainy), and the fact that there is not even a minimum of built-in memory - at least 10 gigs - would be super.

Pros
  • Compact and inexpensive, shoots good video
Cons
  • Photo quality - I expected a much better result, there is no minimum built-in memory.

Not a bad product, nothing extraordinary.

I am changing my mind about this camcorder. I admit some of my mistakes, because of which I previously had a different opinion. The thing is that the clarity of the video is very dependent on both the settings and the correct video conversion. I have been working with Ulead VideoStudio for a long time. It allows you to easily convert MOD files (which the camera writes) to standard AVI. But at the same time, it significantly worsens the clarity of the video, I did not immediately discover this…

Pros
  • Still, it's a good camera. There are advantages. This is ease of use, design, compactness, good optical stabilizer, powerful zoom, acceptable video quality with the right settings and editing.
Cons
  • Small matrix 1/8. Very noisy when using low light mode. And if you turn on the backlight compensation mode at the same time, then all the more, the video turns out to be all in the noise. And clarity deteriorates. There are also some minor shortcomings - the text is erased very quickly, the inscription "Stereo Zoom" is especially quickly erased. Completely erased. Although I'm careful with the camera. The old Samsung camera, which I bought a year earlier, has not yet erased anything. Also, the gasket located at the bottom quickly fell off the camera. But these are small things.

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

Among inexpensive digital Flash cameras, I chose this one because it has a powerful zoom that takes a good picture at maximum magnification - accurate, clear, detailed. Of course, it is important that it is an optical, and not a digital stabilizer. In general, there are no difficulties with the operation - everything is simple and clear. The picture is of good quality. Yes, and photos are also nothing. In general, there is everything, but it costs nothing.

Pros
  • Zoom, price, dimensions, optical stabilizer

What you need, a cool purchase, I advise you.

I use it only as a camera, the camera stands like this, for the sake of appearance, I have a photo on my phone and it has a higher resolution. But this is only one minus, which can be attributed to such a low price. The dimensions and weight are small, and I lack the minimum of internal memory. what I like: how the camera shoots outdoors and indoors, I don’t know how anyone else does, but for example, I don’t see any noise or pixelation in the image. Of course, if you watch on a TV with Full…

Pros
  • Dimensions, price, zoom, stabilizer
Cons
  • A photo

Never buy this product.

After buying the camera, having seen the shooting, I immediately took it back, it's not a camera, my phone is better in terms of picture quality . so my advice is to switch to normal canon cameras or, at worst, sony, but only with a matrix of at least 1 / 2.7, 1 / 2.9 but not less . otherwise you will not see the quality in average lighting and good lighting .

Pros
  • Unfortunately, apart from the size, they simply do not exist and cannot be.
Cons
  • There is no filming quality and cannot be with a matrix size like that of a cell phone, and in general I see no reason to take cameras that are not ful HD,

A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

For me, a camera is primarily a tool for capturing the growth and development of a child, a means for documenting, so it’s convenient for me to use a video camera - I changed the flash drive, and then, when my hands reach it, put everything together in an archive - which is convenient to do (quickly) in the attached program . The video is beautiful, clear and rich.

Pros
  • Convenient and compact camera at an affordable price. produces a high-quality beautiful image, has a clear interface and convenient control
Cons
  • I did not notice

I have not regretted the purchase, everything is fine.

The camcorder is comfortable and easy to use. It has a compact size and good weight - it is not difficult to shoot even for a long time. Fits perfectly in the hand, easy to take off. Only here you constantly need to adjust the setting for a particular lighting, otherwise you will not get a normal high-quality video. In general, for such money it is very good, and for a flash camcorder.

Cons
  • Constant adjustment of settings is somewhat tiring.

I'm completely satisfied with the product, it works.

It is a pity that only one matrix is ​​installed in the camera - an image with three would be much better. Night shooting is so-so - without additional lighting, a good shot is rarely obtained. Therefore, in a dark / dark room, you need to shoot only with light. Of the positive features - the presence of a giant zoom lens, good optics and optical stabilizer. The picture is beautiful, accurate, a little soft, but I adjust the sharpness and the result is worthy.

Pros
  • Dimensions / weight, ease of use, good price
Cons
  • one matrix installed

Poor quality, not suitable for use.

The case ended up taking it back to the store, where (honor and praise to the staff!) Despite the passage of almost a month, I exchanged it for a Canon LEGRIA HF R16 (with an additional charge, of course. Although the money had to be re-borrowed). Well, I won’t write about it - things are incomparable by any criteria . Probably, after all, with a strong desire to purchase a camera, you should not rush to cheap models - "disappointment from low quality lasts longer than joy from a low price"…

Pros
  • optical stabilizer. Well, that's all, I guess. Although, perhaps, my requests for a camera of this price category were somewhat overstated .
Cons
  • Let's start here. I'll try to keep the cost in mind while describing it. To say that the quality of the video is "not a fountain" is to say nothing . Even shooting from a tripod did not bring anything worthwhile. The maximum that it is suitable for is shooting clips for youtube. Until recently, it seemed to me that a camcorder, even of the most budgetary range, should have a normal (in normal sharpness and without pixelation) quality for a 19 "monitor . But no. The resolution is 640x480, at which at least something can be disassembled - this is a small rectangle on the monitor, which is unlikely to suit anyone. I don’t think that in the future you will want to watch your family video archive like that. Further. Ergonomics. In pursuit of compactness, we got a not very convenient device. Well, maybe the control buttons will be convenient for the female hand, but I hardly reached out, twisting my fingers. Manipulations with the adjustment of the strap were also unsuccessful. The software that comes with it for video processing (although what is there to process?) is a firebox. Well, I also didn’t like the manual opening of the lens (maybe out of habit?) - you constantly forget. And when the camera reminds - "everything tasty will already be eaten;)

Great camera for less than 200€!

I bought this camera about 3 months ago so I wanted to test it before posting a review. A decent camera for less than $200. I often shoot sports, so the 70x optical zoom is very useful for me. turn off digital zoom; it's useless. 70X is more than enough for this camera. OIS (optical image stabilization) is amazing! I have a lot of shaky hands, so at 70x zoom you can imagine how shaky the image would be without OIS. It's really convenient. The sound is very good, these small microphones pick up…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Doubtful

Compact and easy to use.

Let's start with the good. This camera has a fantastic zoom, especially thanks to OIS (Optical Image Stabilization). It's small and light, and the battery life is pretty good. Extra batteries are cheap so buy a pair. In addition to widescreen videos (16x9), it takes acceptable photos. Transferring to a PC is quick and easy, and the files can be accessed as a removable drive if you don't want to use Panasonic's PC VideoCam Suite. Maybe I'm picky, but here are a few things I don't like. about…

  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Compatibility

The right camera for the average user like me

I got this camera from me for Christmas. I spent a few days reading many reviews of different brands of camcorders and finally settled on this one mainly because of the reviews. (I'm a fan of the Sony brand, but reviews of similar Sony camcorders made me look for another brand this time. I have an analog Sony Hi-8 and I'm very happy with it, but I was looking for an easier way to store family memories, and now digitally). I have to say I love it a lot (so far I've only used it for the…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons

Panasonic SDR S26 camcorder vs Canon FS200 camcorder

Torn between the Canon FS200 and the Panasonic SDR S26, I bought the Panasonic after reading several reviews touting its excellent zoom and decent standard video quality. First, it's lightweight, small, and very easy to use. Easy navigation, breathtaking zoom - simply amazing. I couldn't believe how far I could see and how stable my view was without a tripod. In addition, this camcorder has excellent sound. The audio is clear with very good volume and a microphone with a good range. The file…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Panasonic SDR-26 SD camcorder

I've been spending some time buying a standard definition camcorder and settled on this Panasonic. I gave it five stars for its ease of use, incredible 70x zoom, optical stabilizer and price. If you've been looking for a digital camcorder, you already know that there are many options and trade-offs when it comes to features, format, and performance. I have read reviews on this camera and believe some of the low ratings are from people who expect a $200 digital camera to perform like a $1000…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Volume

Good decision for camcorders

The Panasonic SDR-S26 SD camcorder is a gem. I bought this item for many reasons, but one of the appealing features for me was the effective anti-shock feature. This element greatly smoothes the video. The camcorder also has an optical zoom rated at 70x. I think that's a bit of an exaggeration, but my goodness, this is the smartest camcorder on the market today, and that gives me bragging rights. The SDR-S26 has plenty of manual settings for different lighting conditions, subjects and…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Uh, folks. This is a camcorder under $200, NOT a commercial HD device!

I have read all the reviews I could find about this camcorder here and elsewhere and I have the impression that the more critical opinions are based on unrealistic expectations or poor reading comprehension by the reviewers themselves. As it turned out, I was right. This is an affordable, very compact and lightweight standard definition camcorder designed for the average user who doesn't want to spend a month's salary just to record some personal events. First the good and the bad.…

  • handy article
