      Review summary: A dinky AVCHD camcorder, with respectable video performance and a reasonable price.

      Verdict: The Panasonic HDC-SD5 isn't a perfect camcorder. Its lack of auxiliary inputs and poor low-light performance won't endear it to anyone with serious video-making intentions. But it's charmingly tiny, with a surprisingly healthy range of manual controls ...

      Review summary: Buying a camcorder is increasingly confusing. Not only do you have to choose between standard and high definition, there are at least four different types of recording format available. Panasonic's HDC-SD5 opts for the relatively new AVCHD, recording ...

      Panasonic HDC-SD5

      By Colin Barrett

      Review summary: This new 3CCD high definition camcorder uses memory cards, rather than tape or hard disk, to record and play back full 1920x 1080i HD movies and stills - with impressive results. Because it can take advantage of affordable SDHC Class 6 cards with ...

      Verdict: Solid state is the future, you know. Amazing full HD at an affordable price.

      Panasonic HDC-SD5

      By Rich Trenholm

      Review summary: Panasonic's HDC-SD5 is a 3CCD hi-def camcorder that records to flash memory. This makes it very small and light, but it manages to offer a high-resolution foldout screen. Intelligent contrast control makes for great quality high-definition footage

      Pros: Compact size ; first-rate video ;

      Cons: Flash memory fills up fast ;

      Verdict: The Panasonic HDC-SD5 delivers fantastic HD video and accessible but clever features in a petite package -- we just wish it had more memory

  2. Panasonic HDC-SD5 camcorder

    Panasonic HDC-SD5 By Anonymous (28/09/2007)
    • Pros: Incredible small size, excellent video, very comfortable, easy to use
    • Cons: No SDHC card supplied, joystick small and fiddly, poor software

    I have tended to stick to Sony camcorders but decided to try the Panasonic after reading a couple of reviews of it. On receiving the camcorder and opening the box I was amazed at its incredibly small size. The control buttons are all well laid out at the back of the camera and the functions for operating the camera (accessed by the joystick) are easy to understand, the only niggle being the very ...
