Panasonic HDC-TM55 8GB hard disc drive digital camcorder

Get the best of both worlds, in more ways than one: Panasonic's HDC-TM55 offers 8GB of hard drive space, plus SD card compatibility. It offers 25x optical zoom (with OIS), plus 35x Intelligent Zoom, and up to 1500x digital zoom--all through the 35.7mm wide-angle lens. Because more is more, not less!

The power of optical image stabilization

Panasonic's new POWER Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.) suppresses the effects of hand shake as it surpasses their old Mega O.I.S. technology with twice the effectiveness. The system uses gyrosensors to detect hand shake, then shifts a lens, and adjusts the optical axis to compensate. You get bright images without blurring even from handheld shooting at slow shutter speeds. And because the system is optical, no image quality is lost. Thanks to POWER O.I.S., the images you capture look incredibly clear, sharp, and beautiful.

Get a little closer

If your subjects are camera shy—and we're talking about that sheep on the side of the cliff, not your good-looking neighbor Cliff—the HDC-TM55 features a stealthy 25x optical zoom and an Intelligent Zoom function that goes all the way up to 35x. When using Intelligent Zoom, Intelligent Resolution Technology lets you shoot at high zoom rates while preserving image sharpness. You get crisp images of highly detailed objects—without the blurry edges.

Get the best shots of your favorite peeps

The Face Recognition function recognizes the faces of registered subjects and automatically optimizes the focus and exposure for those subjects. It continues to track the subject as he or she moves anywhere within the LCD frame, making it ideal for filming your rambunctious kids. Names can also be registered and displayed on the LCD while shooting. In all its brilliance, the HDC-TM55 will track that subject as they move around.

AVCHD: ahead of the rest

One of the woefully under sung wonders built into this Panasonic high definition camcorder slips so surreptitiously into the specs list that all but the wonkiest videophile might miss its existence altogether. Consider yourself witness to the quiet dawn of the AVCHD era. AVCHD? Under sung, you ask? Okay, most people have never heard of it but they will.

AVCHD (Advanced Video Codec High Definition) is a new high definition recording format pioneered by Panasonic, compatible with 3" DVD discs, hard disk drives, and SD and Memory Stick Pro memory cards. As you might surmise from the name, AVCHD employs MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) video compression format instead of the aging MPEG-2 compression used in most HDV camcorders, offering both reduced storage requirements and better video quality. While saying the difference between MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 AVC is the difference between stone tablet and microchip would be resorting to hyperbole, it wouldn't exactly be wrong. With AVCHD, you'll be able to store more video footage of higher quality while using up less of your media capacity. With those other formats? You can't. You'll also be able to utilize true random-access, since time-based seeking on AVCHD does not involve a fast-forward/rewind operation as it would on tape-based formats such as miniDV.

So, whether you have an eye on recording and editing your family adventures for future viewing or pushing the envelope in developing new avenues of video production in your business life, adopt AVCHD now and you'll be able to say you were there, in the beginning. You'll be able to say "Oh yeah, I knew about AVCHD all along."

Canon VIXIA HF R10 8GB SSD red VIXIA high definition digital camcorder

With the Canon VIXIA HF R10 Dual Flash Memory Camcorder, you'll find that high definition video has hit new levels of convenience, ease, performance, and value. The VIXIA HF R10 has an 8GB internal flash drive, together with an SD memory card slot, Canon's Relay Recording, and Smart Auto. A Genuine Canon 20x HD Video Lens and Dynamic IS works in combination with Canon's sophisticated Canon HD image processing to deliver the sharp, vivid, lifelike video you want to see on your HDTV.

The looking glass

One of the best features on this camera will likely go unnoticed by you for years. Why you ask? Well, because it's something that only shows up with time. The lens on this digital camcorder is glass. Why does that matter? Well, on most cameras in this price range, a plastic lens is used to lower the cost. For the most part, the plastic lenses work just fine, and while they might not be quite as great, there's usually not a significant difference between the camera with the glass lens and the plastic one. But that changes with time. After you've owned a camera with a plastic lens for a while, you'll begin to notice a slight yellowing of your footage. That's great if you're shooting a movie with a sepia effect, but for the soccer games, school programs, and birthday parties you want to capture, not so much. Plus, a plastic lens is easier to scratch. Considering the quality and value of this VIXIA, it's a pretty safe bet that you'll have it for a while. Invest in a camera that will last with the HF R10.

A wonderful contradiction

The VIXIA HF R10 can take video snapshots. If that sounds like a contradiction, you're right. Usually you either have a single snapshot or a video clip. But in this case, you'll love the contradictory combination of the two. Basically, you can take two-, four-, or six-second video clips, and add music for a great moving slideshow. This is the sort of effect that would have taken hours of video editing to build a slideshow with before. But now, it's super easy, and simply amazing to see your pictures come to life right before your eyes. But the contradictions continue. Let's say you're watching a video, and you see something that would make the perfect snapshot. With most camcorders, that means uploading the footage to your computer, finding the spot, and using the software to get a snapshot. But with the VIXIA HF R10, it's a lot simpler than that. As you're playing back your footage, simply press the snapshot button, and a frame will be saved to the camera. Aren't contradictions fun?

Forget your memory?

So you went to the play almost an hour early to get a good shot for filming. You set up the tripod to ensure that you capture every line with an inhumanly-steady hand. You charged the battery to ensure you'd capture everything from the moment the curtain lifts to the final bows. You're really excited to show your friends and family the footage once the play is over. The auditorium quiets, the lights dim, and a single spotlight shines on the curtain. You press record, and . . . no tape inserted. Well, there goes your whole plan. Luckily with the VIXIA HF R10, that's not a problem. It uses SD memory cards, so you could just get a 32GB card and record show after game after event without running out of space. But if you forget the card at home while transferring video to the computer, no worries. You're still covered by the camera's 8GB of internal memory. That's enough space to hold about an hour of Full HD video, or up to three hours of standard-definition content. So if you forget the card, rest assured, you're covered. And since it's flash memory, it's much less likely your internal hard drive will be damaged by the jostle of everyday life. And if you're thinking that transferring video or photos to your computer would be a pain, consider this: you can easily transfer content from the internal hard drive to memory cards. Two words: Disaster. Averted.

Welcome to the future

Just because you're not filming the next Avatar doesn't mean HD is a waste. After all, you watch wacky reality shows in HD, so why should your family videos be less important? When people watch your next home production, are they going to say "Wow!" or will they ask when it was filmed? The 90's are over, so ditch the grainy look. With the VIXIA HF R10, you can get video up to Full HD 1920 x 1080, the best video resolution that's commercially available. And when you do feel like taking on a more artistic video project, you can recreate the look of film with 24p and 30p video modes. Get with the times; go HD.

Panasonic HDC-SD60 SD memory card digital camcorder

If you're looking for mobility, Panasonic's HDC-SD60 is right up your alley. It's light, compact, and yet still packs a punch when it comes to technology: the wide-angle 35.7mm lens gives you the flexibility to get up close and take a wide-angle photo or stand back and get up close with the up to 1500x digital zoom. Add to it 25x optical zoom, plus Optical Image Stabilization, and you're set for any photo opportunity.

The power of optical image stabilization

Panasonic's new POWER Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.) suppresses the effects of hand shake as it surpasses their old Mega O.I.S. technology with twice the effectiveness.

Samsung HMXH204BN 16GB SSD Full HD digital camcorder

To really appreciate Samsung's HMX-H204BN is to start by looking at the photos of it on the Images tab. We'll give you a minute . . . . . . . Yup, it's that small. That compact. It's almost unbelievable that a camcorder this small could even be produced. But thanks to modern technology, we have another marvelous invention. And, not to mention the price, but the price is equally impressive for a camcorder with a 16-gig hard drive, 20x optical zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer, and 200x digital zoom. We've got one word for it: Wowser.

The BSI sensor takes sensitivity to a whole new level

BSI CMOS Sensor is Samsung's newest development. The benefit? You get much clearer images in lower lighting conditions as the sensor doubles the light sensitivity and reduces the light loss compared with a normal CMOS sensor. On top of this, the HMX-H204BN uses advanced H.264 compression technology to realise the clearest video quality. Its full HD resolution displays your pictures with superior clarity— far clearer than normal standard-quality pictures.

No moving parts means less things to break

No technological phrase is more comforting than solid state. It's the binky of electronics technology because its solid, unmoving mechanisms make it extra durable, which is extra comforting. For example, the HMX-H204BN has an internal hard drive, but it's not a hard disk—it's a solid state flash device (SSD). So not only is it more durable, it helps the camcorder boot, read data, and operate the software much faster than normal HDDs (Hard Disk Drives). Also, SSD makes less noise while in operation, plus it's environmentally friendly with its low power consumption. Really, there just isn't anything bad to say about SSD, which is exactly what makes it so good.

One smarty-pants camera

There's one in every crowd: the guy that stands out as the smartest guy in the room—not because he's trying to stand out, but because he just is the smartest guy in the room. In a sea of camcorders, the HMX-H204BN is that guy. The smart features go beyond the Smart Auto mode, in which the camcorder automatically chooses the appropriate settings based on the detected type of scene. It comes with Smart Optical Image Stabilization that allows the lens to shift over a wider range of motion in wide/tele zoom positions. This allows the camcorder to compensate for greater degrees of camcorder shake and deliver a stunning level of image smoothness. It also comes with Magic Finger Focus and Magic Finger Shot. Sounds creepy, but none the less, it's wicked cool technology: to focus on a subject, just touch the screen and shoot. The camcorder optimizes the focus for the touched point, enabling professional results from elementary operation.

Making movies like the pros

If the thought of making art house films gets you on the web searching for digital equipment, but the thought of having to watch ninety hours of footage makes you close your internet connection and head for the hills, fear not. Enter the HMX-H204BN. The iVIEW function provides the preview of storyboard to be printed, which gives you digest of the recorded video without viewing the whole sequence of it. And, Storyboard Printing captures 16 still images arbitrarily from the selected video and saves them into the storage media. It presents a quick overview of your video, helping you to understand the overall topic. Got it the way you want it? The built-in editing Intelli-studio software installs directly from this camcorder to your PC, enabling convenient connection only with a USB cable. Intelli-studio also allows direct uploading of your contents to YouTube, Flickr, or Facebook. Production couldn't be simpler.
