We like:
Decent video quality; 32x optical zoom lens; optical image stabilisation; native 16:9 wide-screen video
We don't like:
Useless night mode; sub-megapixel sensor won't wow you with resolution
CNET UK judgement:
The Panasonic NV-GS80 is a serviceable budget camcorder, but better choices are out there
