5 out of 5 stars Stunning Quality and Excellent low light performance   July 19, 2010

Next to or better than the broadcast quality videos. Words can't explain how good the video shot at 1080/50p. Colours are very real. I have owned 3 camcorders in the past from Sony and Canon and I would say this at 100 times better. Seeing is believing, go for it.




5 out of 5 stars Great piece of kit   July 5, 2010

Once again Amazon have excelled themselves.
Ordered Friday 2nd July delivered Monday 5th July using free delivery.

My initial thoughts on the Panasonic HDC-SD600 camcorder.

For a 'simplified' version of the SD700 it sure has a lot of features that I'll never use.

Using full auto (iA) produces an absolutely fabulous picture quality.
I won't use the top recording mode because I have no way of playing back the videos. I'm using the next setting down and I think the reproduction is superb, I can't praise it enough.
I thought the picture from my old Panasonic NV-S90(S-VHS-C) were good, but these are so much better.
I can't imagine how good it must be if you are able to use the full HD setting.

The only thing that I might miss is the viewfinder. I'm a bit of a Ludite in that respect.
I would never buy a still camera without a viewfinder, but I didn't think it worth paying the extra £120 or so for the SD700, just to get a viewfinder.
I know it has some other features too, but nothing that I'll ever use.
Friends tell me I won't miss the viewfinde once I get used to using a screen instead. We'll see.
I am finding the touch screen a bit of a chore, but that's probably because I've never used one before.

On the few occasions that I might want manual control, it seems to be available with this, once I learn what buttons to press.

At the moment I'm using the 4gb SDHC (2) card that I use in my stills camera.
It's working fine and I get 30 minutes recording at the setting that I'm using.
I will be buying something a bit bigger, but no bigger than 16gb and I'll be looking for SDHC (4 or 6) just to be sure it can cope. I'm a funny sort, I would sooner have several smaller cards than one big one. I always worry the the card will die and I'll loose everything. This way I only loose the contents of one card.

Unless you really need full manual control this will do everything that you want.

If my opinion changes when I've had longer to use it I will update this review. For now though, I'm a very happy 65-year-old bunny.

The Panasonic SD600 is a brillant product. Full HD is really superb on a Panasonic TV. The lens is extremely sharp and the detail and colour reproduced is excellent. The camera is easy to operate although I am not a great fan of touch screens but I am getting used to it. This is probably the best and most satisfying product I have bought for a long time.


5 out of 5 stars Bought for kids sports day   June 11, 2010

I bought this camcorder after seeing the reviews on the internet (simplydv/trustedreviews)

Although a bit more expensive than usual, I wanted something that would be futureproof so I could record my son's sports day and play back when he's older.

Playing back on my Samsung HDTV, the picture is absolutely stunning and I found the camcorder not only small enough to fit in my pocket, but really easy to use.

Would definitely recommend to others.



5 out of 5 stars A mistake rectified   August 22, 2010

Being attracted by the advertising I first purchased a Panasonic SDR S45. When downloading the pictures on my computer I realised what a dreadfull mistake I had made. The definition, if you can call it that was absolutely atrocious. With a family wedding only two days away, I read the plaudits and lashed out on an SD600 Full HD. While not yet having time to explore all its services it is really breathtaking. A real camera of your dreams. I will probably never buy another, it is so perfect in all that I have filmed so far. The definition is great and cannot be faulted. All I need now is a suitable rain proof carrier, but this is a miner point. To all those out there, this is absolutely the best.
