Panasonic HDC-SD900 review
The Panasonic HDC-SD900 is a tremendous 1080p camcorder that's ideal for advanced users, marrying great picture quality with excellent manual controls. Its 3D capability is an added bonus, but you'll need to pay extra for the compatible lens. Read more

Panasonic NV-GS80 review
The Panasonic NV-GS80 is a MiniDV camcorder available at the appeallingly low price of around £200. It produces excellent video, which is mostly clean and free of grain, and comes with a useful 32x optical zoom lens and optical image stabilisation 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

Sony Handycam DCR-SR58E review
Sony's Handycam DCR-SR58E is one of the better standard-definition camcorders we've seen of late. It's easy to use and offers some genuinely useful features. It is, however, let down by its appalling photo quality. Read more

Sony Handycam HDR-CX6EK review
There are some great features squashed into the tiny body of the Sony Handycam HDR-CX6EK. It's small thanks to its AVCHD flash memory, and you can use the touchscreen interface to navigate a nice complement of controls, all through the sharp Zeiss T lens. Do you have room for a little 'un? Read more

Panasonic HDC-SD60 review
Its average photo quality is a shame, but the Panasonic HDC-SD60 still comes highly recommended -- few entry-level camcorders have impressed us so much in terms of both features and video performance. Read more

Sony Handycam HDR-XR350VE review
The Sony Handycam HDR-XR350VE is certainly capable of producing excellent quality video, but its cost may be harder to justify if you're not going to take full advantage of the extended storage and GPS features this camcorder offers. Read more

Canon Legria HF R106 review
Cheap and mostly cheerful, the Canon Legria HF R106 is by no means perfect, but it's certainly one of the best camcorder options available in the sub-£250 price bracket. Read more

Panasonic HDC-HS700 review
Panasonic's HDC-HS700 gets top marks in almost every department and comes with all the storage you'll ever need built in. This is a seriously powerful camcorder, so only serious power users need apply. Read more

Sanyo Xacti DMX-CA8 review
The Sanyo Xacti DMX-CA8 is a waterproof camcorder that's up to the challenge of holidays, adventures and wet weekends. Video quality isn't a top priority here, but it offers 'proper camcorder' features such as optical zoom and stills capture, and it's perfect for sharing your daring snowboarding clips on YouTube Read more
