The product is amazing. But I did not get the Power cord (I bought it refurbished, but still a wire less is a wire less). It is necessary for transferring to PC. Need to be sure you got everything.

Have owned SDR-H200 for about 8 months.
Pros: Decent price, good video quality in well-lit areas, no tape, digital recording. Cons: poor low light video quality - not unusable, but noticeably grainy picture. Cannot get widescreen mode to work. Video clips are coming in as 4:3. Supplied software leaves a lot to be desired.
recommended.

I had it for about three months. No problems what so ever. I just don't like the fact that I need to connect it to a power plug as opoosed to running it on battery when transferring files to the computer.
Very easy to use, very good video quality, plenty of manual controls. Handling is pretty good, just weird to have the battery coming out so much, especially when using the larger capacity batt... but does not interfere with the controls. Joystick is very precise, zoom is sensitive to your touch and will go fast or slow as needed. Not so great on dimmed light, but video light will help, however with some noise in the pic. Compact, light, very easy to transfer data to pc and edit or burn. Heard issues with mod. files... I use cyberlink power director and everything is smooth (the enclosed software is ok).
"The Panasonic SDR-H200 is awesome !"

The panasonic SDR-H200 has met & exceeded all my expectations. I did a lot of research, and read many reviews. In the beginning, I fully expected to go with a JVC or Sony camcorder, but found the Panasonic SDR-H200 blew them away! The SDR-H200 is the bast value hands down: Color, picture quality, features, ease of use. Panasonic uses the same 3 CCD technology in the SDR-H200 camcorder that is used in the really pricey $1,500+ camcorders. I bought this camcorder ahead of a recent trip to Hawaii, and it met & exceeded all my expectations. They say not to plan for good still pictures from a camcorder, but I found this panasonic camcorder takes great still pictures, in addition to awesome video. Made a great second still camera for our trip. This camera has a ton of features to satisfy the video aficionado. I learn something new every time I use it. I got great battery life, 3+ hours between charges, as long as you keep the view screen light level turned down to a reasonable light level. Even at the low light level the view is really good. The remote works great for running the camera while taking couple shots on a tripod, or reviewing footage with a TV. Thanks to the folks who provided recommendations in this forum on manipulating the files. I'm learning the best ways/software to manipulate my files. I've bought a lot of books through Amazon.com, but this was the first time for electronics. Worked out great! Great price, turn around, convenience, review info.

I've had this unit 1 month & can not be more pleased..It was a replacement for a pana pv-dv953 digital cam that I really liked until it decided to die on me and it was a little bit on the big.heavy side, but I was very pleased with its performance..this 3ccd hard drive cam is incredible for my uses so far..the fit/weight/ergonomics are very very good..my wife (who never touched the pv-dv953) has even shot some footage with this unit & seems to have liked doing so..I didn't even have to instruct her on its use to much..I do agree with some of the reviews I've read that you need to take the time to read the owner's manual..you might be surprised @ what this beauty can do..Some reviews complained about having to remove battery and connect unit to outlet to playback on tv's or to download..I just have not found that to be a problem for me personally..Bottom line is I think anyone in the market for a hard drive/3ccd camcorder need look no further..this is the one....
