Canon Legria HF S21 review
The Canon Legria HF S21 sets new standards for home-video image quality. The camcorder is large, expensive and complicated to use, but if you're after the best, you're unlikely to hold any of these factors against it. 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

Panasonic HDC-TM700 review
The HDC-TM700 will appeal to a limited audience due to its high price, but it's truly packed with features and its 1080/50p video is often stunning. You'll need to ensure your playback and editing hardware and software is up to the task of handling the camcorder's raw footage, though Read more

Flip Video MinoHD (3rd gen) review
It's a shame Flip Video hasn't chosen to boost the pixel count or add a still photo option, but the latest version of its MinoHD is still a great little camcorder that's easy to use and small enough to take anywhere. Read more

Flip Video MinoHD (2nd gen) review
The second-generation MinoHD mini-camcorder shoots the same impressive 720p video as its predecessor. But it also offers a sleeker body, more storage space and an HDMI port on the bottom for connecting it to a high-definition TV. It's fantastically easy to use and marvellously pocketable too Read more
