Oh, I cannot believe, spent about $500 or more for this and it became unusable exactly after its 1 year warranty period. The disc eject does not work any more and Panasonic says it would cost me $260 or more to repair it, and of course now you can buy a new one now with that money since electronic items get cheaper with time so much. This is the last item for me from Panasonic. I thought it was a good brand and that is so wrong!!!

Very nice DVD camcorder. Silent operations, great zoom and a very good LCD. I'm enjoying it in these first days. Positive points: A large amount of editing features inside. Negative points: Movie edition software and DVD-RAM drive aren't available in the box (you have to get them separetly). Record functions like Fade-in and out are available only by a menu option (some movements to access).

You can do better for the money. The image quality is below average and low light is really bad, even for a novice camcorder. I'm glad to see the price has come down. The camcorder did not come with the software needed to capture video or even play the dvd on my computer(it really should have). I would do more research and choose a camera that is right for you. I found many online camcorder review sites very helpful. I returned it and bought another panasonic with 3ccd technology. It has much better picture quality. If you want really good night vision go with sony. I would not recomend this camcorder to anyone.

This camcorder is awesome!! Easy to use and the instruction manual breaks things down for you Barney Style:)
The battery only lets you record continuously for about 2 and a half hours (more than I need) so you may want to have a standby battery waiting if it's nessasary.
"Picture Is Fine Also Imports Into Vegas Movie Studio Platinum"
I bought the Panasonic VDR-D100 for my daughter because she usually doesn't want to do anything with the computer like edit video. When we gave it to her the first thing she asked was, "can I edit the movies?"
I did a quick test to make sure the DVDs would finalize and work on another DVD player with success on 3 computers and 3 DVD players. I didn't find anything the disc wouldn't play on.
Then I started up Vegas Movie Studio Platinum which I use to edit my miniDV movies. I selected IMPORT from DVD and it went straight to the miniDVD and loaded in the files where I was able to edit and add titles, music, sound effects and a voice over if I wanted to.
Since I already bought DVD-R/W discs she will be able to reuse them if she ever edits the movies because you can unfinalize the discs and reformat them.
"Amazon"

I like my new panasonic recorder (you might consider the next model up before you buy). What I would really like to review is the performance of Amazon. The first unit I bought performed marginally, so the first chance I got I exchanged it with Amazon. They took care of the problem, by replacing it with a new camera. They moved on the problem so fast that my jaw dropped. I could not believe how quickly and professionally Amazon took care of the situation! I am old enough to be a little reluctant to use the internet, but Amazon gives me the confidence to know if its not right, it will be, quickly! Thanks Amazon!
