By Mike Perlman (infosyncworld.com)

How light is too light? Panasonic is testing that hypothesis with the Panasonic HDC-SD10 and Panasonic HDC-TM10, the world's current lightest high-definition camcorders.

high-definition camcorders at CES as well, but apparently they were simply not light enough. Panasonic had significantly reduced the overall size and weight of the two aforementioned camcorders, but in an age where small is the new large regarding ...

Panasonic HDC-SD10

By Jonathan Parkyn (cnet.co.uk)

The Panasonic HDC-SD10 is a great pocket camcorder that manages to combine diminutive dimensions with good-quality, 1080p high-definition video. Beginners will have no problems using it, but there are plenty of options to keep more experienced users ...

Small and light ; welcome balance between simplicity and advanced features ; pleasing video picture quality

Weak photo quality ; some construction issues ; over-eager autofocus

If small size and low weight are important considerations, but you don't want the poor-quality video that's typical of pocket camcorders, you should consider the Panasonic HDC-SD10

Panasonic HDC-SD10 camcorder

By Anthony Dhanendran (Computeract!ve)

High-definition video, recorded straight to a memory card

Easy to use ; memory card shooting is cheap and convenient ; superb quality in slow-moving scenes

Motion blur was a problem ; relatively expensive

A decent camera, but better results can be had without spending much more

By Anonymous verified purchaser (reevoo.com)

A present for my wife, so I am going by what she has told me. Seems very simple to use and does everything my wife wants it for. Very compact for her hand but maybe a little small for mine, although I have quite big hands

The only thing approaching a bad point is that my wife has not been able to download footage to the computer, though I have to point out that she has not opened the instruction manual for anything yet

Manufacturer's Description

The SD10 features a 16x optical zoom. You can zoom close to catch dynamic shots of distant objects. And because the zoom is optical, there's limited image degradation. Also, Panasonic's Advanced O.I.S. helps prevent blurring - typically a big concern when shooting with a zoom. This combination of optical zoom and Advanced O.I.S. gives you the ability to take fantastic zoom shots. Panasonic's Advanced O.I.S. helps suppress the effects of hand-shake as you shoot, for both motion and still...
