Sony Handycam HDR-CX100 review

The compact, flash-based Handycam HDR-CX100 has a boxy but pleasant design and shoots decent video, performing particularly well in low light. Whether or not it's right for you depends on how significant a factor size is, as you can get better-equipped but larger models for the same price Read more

Panasonic HDC-SD9 review

The Panasonic HDC-SD9 is one of the smallest and lightest full-size camcorders we've tested, and yet it still manages to pack in a good number of features -- you can even manually adjust aperture and shutter speed, which is unusual in this class Read more

Hitachi DZ-HS300E review

Hitachi's DZ-HS300E is a budget hybrid HDD/DVD-based camcorder, ideal if you want the stability of hard drive recording with the easy playback and distribution of a DVD. It's not a bad performer, but the image quality is far from perfect Read more

Panasonic SDR-S150 review

It sounds like the perfect holiday camcorder: it's very light because it records to an included 2GB SD card, it's got three CCDs, a 10x zoom lens and optical image stabilisation; but image quality is a problem Read more
