A neat tough little camcorder
Biggest pro for me is that this little HD camcorder has a viewfinder which is absent on just about all its competitors, it is also robustly made and the battery life appears excellent but the price of a spare battery is high. It has enough features and controls to make it flexible but without being complicated. A poor design feature is the fact that you have your fingers in the way operating the tiny and a bit fiddly joy stick while you are reviewing the video, it is not touch screen as with my previous Sony camcorder. I find with mine that in sunny conditions faces are slightly burnt out but that is overcome using the iA exposure control which you might argue should not be necessary if it got exposure right in the first place. On the whole I would recommend it and hope that a later model makes the review controls better and improves exposure control.

smallest HD camcorder with a view finder HDC-SD100
panasonic HDC-SD100
what a great full HD camcorder all what it says on the tin!
worth 4.5 stars.
i would of given 5 stars but indoors in bad daylight its a bit grainy on zoom (just turn the light on if dark)
small but not tiny all the buttons in the right place,i like the fact you have to remove the battery to plug in the tv/pc so you dont drain your battery.
i just pop the sd card straight into my sd card tv slot works great.
picture quality is much better than my 18mth old sony
HD is the way to go,colour and sharpness is great.
camera is ok for pc good auto flash
comes with basic but easy and good software.
the ring on the front is a cool idea,
glad the battery life is long as a spare will put you back £55

bought mine through simplyelectrics ordered monday night turned up Friday morning RM specail delivery great service.

excellent camcorder
Top notch camcorder. Colour and quality of captured video excellent.Very easy to transfer onto PC with usb adaptor (not supplied)instead of taking out batt and plugging in mains.More robust than having hard drive also.Cannot fault this camcorder probably why it got 19/20 in "which camcorder" mag.Also SDHC memory cards keep getting cheeper.
