Panasonic HDC-SD9 camcorder













Panasonic camcorders it seems that color saturation has finally been boosted, however, in outdoor shooting there sometimes is a tendency for oversaturation. Although the camcorder works really well in bright sunlight, it does not perform equally well in low light. The quality of the recorded images is really good and can be adjusted thanks to the four quality options. Panasonic HDC-SD9 can record in HA (17Mbps), HG (13Mbps) which record in 1920 x 1080 and can capture in either 1080/60i or 1080/24P, HX (9Mbps) records in 1920 x 1080 but can’t capture 24P,
Panasonic HDC-SD9 records only to SDHC and SD memory cards and although 32GB cards have been recently released it seems that this camcorder is compatible only with up to 16 GB cards.
There are also a few Scene modes, including Surf & Snow, Portraits, Spotlight and Sports – not a very impressive list and for sure shorter than in camcorders made by Sony, or Canon. Zoom in the latest Panasonic camcorder is fine. The optical zoom extends to 10x and the digital one to 25x or 700x.
Panasonic HDC-SD9 ought to be a good camcorder for beginners with its low price and Shooting Guide feature which will guide beginners through the most important settings.
