If you're looking for a way to capture in HD, without breaking the bank, the Panasonic HDC-SD10 High Definition Camcorder does just that. This affordable HD camcorder records 1920 x 1080i video directly to removable SD/SDHC memory cards (not included), making transfer of footage a breeze. The SD10 also acts as a digital still camera with 2.1MP still capture.
You'll benefit from a number of recording features, including 16x optical zoom, Intelligent Auto mode, and a 2.7" touchscreen LCD. Other useful features include Panasonic's Advanced O.I.S. with Active Mode which compensates for shakes, shifts, and movement for both video and still images. Other considerations worthy of note would be the built-in flash and video lights, which are key to successful low light recording. In addition, the camcorder includes a stylus pen for easier navigation of the touchscreen. The HDC-SD10 provides a solid package, with user-friendly options for the budget-conscious.
