Reviews for Hard Disk Camcorders, Hard Drive Camcorders

 
A hard disk camcorder stores video directly to an internal hard disk on the hard disk camcorder itself. Hard disks on hard disk camcorders can fill up fast especially in high definition mode so you'll need to transfer the video from your hard disk camcorder

"High-quality video; solid performance; broad manual feature set....Touch screen not responsive enough...While the company replaced the awkward ring-based manual operation with an equally awkward touch screen, the improvement in video quality and performance make these a far better bet...Tell us what you like about this product...Tell us what you don't like about this product......" read more »

"Canon HG21 - camcorder - hard disc drive flash card - Review - Canon's Wunderkid...It?s 120 GB HDD holds upto 11 hours of high definition video which equals to 45 hours in long play mode...In fact it?s got an optical image stabilizer (OIS) largely helping the video sharp and crisp..." read more »

"Includes viewfinder and lens ring Holds about 15 hours of top-quality video...Expensive Image quality gets mixed reviews Touch-screen controls can get tedious...The Panasonic HDC-HS300 impresses some very credible reviewers with its professional-type manual controls and improved image quality...The HDC-HS300 can hold about 15 hours of top-quality video on its 120 GB hard drive, according to reviews, but some critics say that's overkill...As..." read more »

"Excellent zoom > Stylish finish > Responsive auto modes...Gimmicky You Tube function > Low levels of detail > Protruding battery...That's why Panasonic has introduced the new SDR-H80: the HDD cam that goes that little bit further...Compact and slimline, the H80 sits comfortably in the palm with perhaps just one rather ugly caveat – the protruding battery at the back end...It's no surprise Panasonic has been talking up the H80's 70x optical zoom:..." read more »

"Make some great savings with products that are as good as new...Good as new products include used and reconditioned devices, as well as products with missing accessories and damaged packaging...Hold quality in the palm of your hand with Panasonic's HDC-HS20 camcorder...The HDC-HS20 has advanced automatic settings like an optical stabiliser, face detection, intelligent contrast control, and AF Tracking keeps the subject in focus even if it..." read more »

"The Sony DCR-SR47 is a great standard-definition camcorder that will satisfy most casual users...If we had to pick the product highlight of the Sony DCR-SR47, it would probably be a tie between its 60GB hard drive and 60x optical zoom (the numbers are the same, see...This means you will rarely need to transfer data to a computer or DVD — although it’s still a good idea to occasionally backup your footage in case the camcorder gets damaged or lost..." read more »

"The GZ-HD300 is one of JVC's numerous mid-range HD camcorders that were released in 2009...Similar to other JVC camcorders in the same range, the HD300 is compact, relatively affordable ($700 MSRP), and well-suited for novice videographers...As with all new JVC camcorders, the HD300 offers the mildly outdated-sounding "Laser Touch," a touch-sensitive strip on the left side of the LCD panel...Overall, we found the Laser Touch strip to be more frustrating than helpful...The video performance of the GZ-HD300 was often lackluster, especially in low light, but there were some positives..." read more »

"Oh, how we love new technology—especially when it comes in the form of a smaller, sleeker, easier-to-use device...The Everio G-Series digital camcorders have hard drive-based storage with capacities of either 60GB or 80GB, but you can also fit plenty of video and photos on a microSD/SDHC card, which offers another 4GB or 8GB of storage..." read more »

"Good video quality under bright light...Bad low-light video Expensive for what you get...The GPS-enabled Sony Handycam HDR-XR200V certainly sports innovative features, but it lacks the video quality needed to make it stand out from--or even measure up to--the best small AVCHD camcorders we've seen this year...The HDR-XR200V also includes two unique features, one useful, the other not...the HDR-XR200V earned a standard-lighting video..." read more »

"Full HD 1920 x 1080 120GB AVCHD HDD Camcorder...Expensive; weak low-light performance...The Sony Handycam HDR-SR12 is a slightly mixed bag with the ledger heavily weighted to the positive...That said we were happy to get our hands on the new HDR-SR12, the company’s top-of-the-line HDD model that records Full HD 1920 x 1080I video along with 10-megapixel digital stills to a hefty 120GB hard drive......" read more »
