Editors' choice Panasonic HDC-SDT750 review

Panasonic HDC-SDT750 review

The Panasonic HDC-SDT750 is an excellent 2D camcorder, with a host of useful, creative features -- most of which are lost when you opt to film in 3D. Thankfully, these limitations fail to undermine the novelty of lensing in the third dimension. If you have a 3D TV, it's probably worth the premium. 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

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

Sony Bloggie Touch review

The Sony Bloggie Touch will probably be ideal if you're seeking a mini-camcorder that you can stash in your pocket and use to capture decent video. A lack of settings and a sluggish autofocus limit its uses, though. Read more

Toshiba Camileo SX900 review

Occupying a unique position somewhere between a pocket camcorder and a costlier video device, the Toshiba Camileo SX900 is fun to use, great value and offers several features not usually found on devices of this price. Read more

Sanyo Xacti VPC-CA100 review

It might be a little pricier than the average pocket camera, but stump up the extra cash and Sanyo's gun-shaped Xacti VPC-CA100 will let you shoot video and photos of a much higher quality than its fellow pocket-friendly devices. It also provides a wider range of features, including immunity to water. Read more

Kodak PlaySport review

Small, simple and submersible to 3m, Kodak's PlaySport keeps the price down without dropping the image quality too far. It has its share of flaws but it's great fun to use. Read more

The JVC Picsio GC-FM2 is a pocket-sized video and photo camera that has a couple of interesting tricks up its sleeve, but suffers from quality limitations and is pretty light on extras. Read more

Panasonic HM-TA1 review

If you've always assumed that camcorders are unwieldy, expensive and complicated, the Panasonic HM-TA1 is the perfect antidote to all that. It's easy to carry, simple to use and amazingly good value for money, but it has its limitations, including no HDMI output. Read more
