 RC FORMULA 1 RACING /RECORDED WITH AG-DVC 20 March 31, 2008

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3M7E23MHDZC54 My name is Sandor ....or DJ SANDOORS .This is a video of RC Formula 1 racing in Savannah, GA. I have other videos on You Tube, look for DJ Sandoors movies. I've had this camera for six months and bought on Amazon. For a lightweight camera of plastic material, it can be a good buddy for me. It's good for action footage and I could call this a semi-professional level. I'm an independent camera man with short films of nature, music, sports and portraits. It might make a high level movie maker angry, but for the price, it's working well.
 Excellent prosumer choice January 29, 2008

I had three must-haves for a video camera:
- three ccds
- record to miniDV
- audio-out port
Most of the cameras with these three features are up in the $3000 range, essentially going for the low-end professional market. All the cameras currently selling for around $600-$700 skimp on some aspect of performance. If all you care about is making home movies to keep and share memories of kids' birthday parties, by all means, go for a HDD camera, or just hope that your sound will turn out okay. But if you want to put together footage that has real production value, shell out the extra few hundred for this model. It will really show in the finished product.

Avoid this camera. Had it a month, and gave it away. Buy the DVC60 if you can even find one still around
 Panasonic just never quite gets it December 7, 2007

I had previously owned 6 Panasonic cameras in this class for my wedding studio. We loved them. I purchased this camera last year and pretty much hate it. The menus are hard to use - the flipout LCD is a joke.
Footage was much better with the Panasonic Ag-DVC15. Panasonic went backwards with this model
Great Camera! June 26, 2007

I love this camera- it has a total pro look, great picture and awesome sound. I purchased an external mic and still haven't had to use it, the built in mic is that good. It looks heavy but it's very light and comfortable to use, I was surprised as to how light it was, it must be mostly hollow- either way, it's a good weight for me for me, because I'm very petite, which makes it all the more impressive!lol! I'm using FCP2 and everything is coming out beautifully! So far, I am very happy & pleased with this purchased.
