      Panasonic HDC-SX5

      By Jackson Lynch

      Review summary: to build one. The convergence concept may have gone a bit awry when Panasonic schemed to combine DVD and SD/SDHC media into an AVCHD (1920 x 1080) shooter. In the quest to give consumers more options things only get more complicated. The snag isn't ...

      Pros: Comfy ergonomics. Good video quality.

      Cons: Expensive and bulky. Not meant for novice shooters.

      Panasonic HDC-SX5

      By Charlie White

      Review summary: Here's the most versatile camcorder of the bunch, letting you record 28 minutes of its best-quality video per 3-inch DVD. If you don't feel like dealing with discs, you can cram 80 minutes of HD footage on an 8GB SDHC flash memory card instead. If you ...

      Pros: Versitility is key here - records to SDHC and DVD ; 3-second preroll recording

      Cons: Some contrast issues in very bright or medium light

      Verdict: That bulge on the side gives you a love handle to grab onto

      Pros: Stunning image quality, Good range of features, Good value for beginners and upgraders alike

      Cons: Controls take time to get used to, Can suffer from wind noise

      Verdict: Some users are going to find this model a bit too big and bulky for their liking. However, the superb HD picture quality and the availability of two excellent recording media make up for this. A very good product for the price

      Panasonic HDC-SX5

      Review summary: DVD recording means the SX5 is a large and chunky beast

      Pros: Stunning image quality, Good range of features, Good value for beginners and upgraders alike

      Cons: Controls take time to get used to, Can suffer from wind noise

      Verdict: Its impressive glossy grey and black two-tone finish certainly makes it look the part, but it's when used on a good tripod that its mass comes in useful. With the exception of a few buttons that sit inside the 2.7in widescreen LCD recess, all the main ...
