I purchased two of these to use a live camera sources for a Blackmagic ATEM Mini switcher. Provided a clean HDMI signal (no on screen readouts) and when hooked to the supplied power adapter, worked reliably as a video source during an all-day meeting we were streaming live. For the affordable price they are excellent 1920x1080 camera sources backed by a global camera manufacturer. Small, compact, lightweight, these are a cheap way to get a quality multi-camera setup going.

It's generally a good camera, but it didn't come with a remote, and you can't use the TV connection at the same time as other features.

This is a great product for what it is designed to do and it seems that many of the negative reviews are by people that didn’t research their purchase properly. I understand that frustration, but if you know what it can and can’t do before purchasing then you will not be disappointed! Let me give some of the pros and cons to explain what I mean. At the end I have a small explanation of what you can expect for picture quality. Pros - Zoom: The zoom is amazing! I shoot most of my videos on a 1.6x crop frame Canon DSLR and there is no lens in the world that will get you 59x optical zoom. That is something like 1650mm equivalent which gives you a tight headshot at 200ft. There are several “Intelligent” or digital zoom options, just disable that from the first day and forget about it. - Battery/Charging: The battery lasts forever. I’ve done long recordings and I really haven’t hit 50% battery. It is also easy to power off USB (in two different ways: the included barrel plug or micro USB) which means that a cheap battery bank will keep it at 100% power for days. - Price: At just under $200 this is $50 cheaper that most of the competition (for example the Vixia HF R800). Even for the same price I prefer the Panasonic to the Canon, and I’m an avid Canon DSLR fan! - Microphone: No, this doesn’t have a broadcast quality microphone. However, it is noticeably better than the mic on my Canon DSLR, especially in the wind. I do wish that it accepted an external mic input, and I’ve listed that as a con. So the quality isn’t great, but since it’s better than a DSLR I have to put it as a pro. Cons - Microphone Input: I really wish this accepted an external mic input as most of it’s competitors do. I get that most people buying a cheap camcorder aren’t going to use an external mic, but I would! - No Carrying Case: Even a simple cloth bag would have been better than nothing, I bought a $10 case that’s a bit too big for it. I wish I had something better. - Menu Interface: This isn’t a strong point for most camcorders, but this one is particularly finicky with the menus. The low quality touch screen and small icons mean it often takes two tries to hit the right button and the menus are designed someone who has never actually used a camera. - Live-Video Output: I haven’t even tried this, it uses a mini-HDMI, which is a stupid standard, but at least they include a mini-HDMI to HDMI cord with the camera. There are a lot of other reviews that talk about this… I haven’t tried and I don’t care, but others have issues, so consider that if you care. A note about video quality: I’ll start by saying that this is about on par with a good smartphone for video quality and maybe underperforms a flagship phone in low light. In a daylight scene it can be hard to tell the difference between this camcorder footage and a $1,000 DSLR with a good lens! However, as soon as you go indoors the quality of the camcorder footage deteriorates to a barely usable level. It says it is F2.08 @ 108mm and while I don’t think they are lying, the quality of the footage would not lead a person to believe that number… So why would you buy this!? Why have I given it 5 stars!? Because a good new DSLR+lens cost 3 or 5 times as much, and this camcorder keeps pace with good lighting conditions. Because a smartphone is lucky if it can get to 2x zoom without the quality collapsing and this camcorder does 59x and looks great. Because it is $200 and can get great footage that would be hard to get other ways! If you want to record indoors/low-light, or need the absolute best in video quality then spend the extra money to get something with a much larger sensor (not really available on any "camcorder"). Otherwise, you’ll love this!

I used this Camcorder on our trip to Europe. The built microphone is not capable of picking up sound. I guess an extra separate microphone must be purchased. The video quality, with plenty of sunlight on the outside, is very good. The video quality inside is not that great, especially when other lights interfere, a quality indoor video camera light is required to enjoy a good video.

The media could not be loaded. It's a great camera for time-lapse (as you can see by this 12 hours of a slime mold in less than 45 seconds.) AND it will continue to film (and take a charge) with the lcd monitor closed.

I had to go through two of these camcorders before I saw the awesome quality it gives. I could not figure out how to record to the SD drive, and the instructions are not very clear on that point. Not even the manufacturer could solve my problem. I spent over 5 hours total (between two of them [thought the first one was defective] before I solved it myself. The instructions tell you the various formats it will accept, but they don't tell you that YOU have to set them or even how to set them. Once I figured that out, I enjoyed the quality of the camera.
