Panasonic SDR-H79
$400.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:70x optical zoom. Large 60GB storage drive. Optical image stabilization.
The Cons:Mechanical disk storage is heavier, more power hungry, creates more heat and is more prone to physical damage than flash based storage. No LED light for recording in poorly lit environments. Records in standard definition only.
The Panasonic SDR-H79 is a relatively inexpensive camcorder that delivers more bang for the buck than more expensive Panasonic cameras such as the SDR-H200. It has a larger hard drive than other camcorders; the 60 GB of space can hold over two days work of continuous video recording.

It has a great 70x optical zoom which makes it much better at grabbing the far away details. The 2.7 inch LCD viewing screen is a standard size for Panasonic camcorders, as is the Optical Image Stabilization and the SDHC memory card slot. The Panasonic SDR-H79 is mac compatible and connects to a computer using a 2.0 hi-speed USB connection. Another nice feature that the camcorder offers is the stereo zoom mike, a device perfect for capturing harder to hear sound.
