Pansonic HDC 700 review: Pansonic HDC 700

 

Very good low-light video quality; full set of manual features; 1080/60p recording option.

Smallish, low-resolution LCD; coarse EVF; some edge artifacts in video; middling still photo quality.

The flash-based Panasonic HDC-TM700 and its hard-disk sibling, the HDC-HS700, stand out for their low-light video quality and broad set of manual controls. However, while the TM700 is very attractively priced for its class, the HS700 is not, and not...

Panasonic HDC-TM700 Camcorder Review

 

The Panasonic HDC-TM700 (MSRP $999) is the hotly anticipated successor to last year's HDC-TM300-our pick for

We are very impressed with the Panasonic HDC-TM700 (MSRP $999), and the camcorder appears to be in prime position to capture our coveted year-end awards-although we do still have a lot of 2010 camcorders to test from other manufacturers. So far,...

Best HD camcorder overall

 

The Panasonic HDC-TM700 not only costs less than its Sony and Canon rivals, but it can also do something they can't: It records in 1080/60p (progressive) high definition, which is smoother than its rivals' 1080/60i (interlaced) footage. Video...

Stellar 60p footage, great controls, costs less than rivals

Many editing programs can't handle 60p, smaller memory than its rivals, smaller LCD screen than rivals, some owners complain of fan noise

Panasonic HDC-TM700 Camcorder

 

It is unusual when marketing hype matches reality; more so when “full HD” is the primary selling point. After spending ten days evaluating Panasonic's recently released HDC-TM700, I've had a change of heart -- due in part to one new and one improved...

Panasonic HDC-TM700

 

A strong improvement on an already great formula, with a ludicrously low price for its value

Strong color & noise results; Good sharpness and motion in 1080p; Comfortable handling

Touchscreen can be annoying

Panasonic HDC-TM700

 

The high definition camcorder to beat in 2010?

First 1080/50p-capable camcorder ; High quality 35mm lens ; Excellent video quality

Expensive

Overall, the HDC-TM700 produces a killer combination of consummate manual control and best-of-breed image quality. And with a price already similar to the outgoing models, you should look no further than this if you're in the market for a top-end HD...

Pansonic HDC 700 review

 

One of the least expensive and most compact camcorders available with a full manual feature set and electronic viewfinder, plus a 1080/60p recording mode, the Panasonic HDC-TM700 presents an attractive option for users dissatisfied by the quality and...
