Product Description
The SDR-H60's 50x optical zoom lens has the power you need to take dramatic close-ups or get remarkable shots of even distant subjects. Panasonic's Advanced Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.) suppresses the effects of handshake as you shoot. The system uses gyro sensors to detect handshake, then shifts a lens and adjusts the optical axis to compensate. The SDR-H60's 60GB internal hard disk drive lets you record continuously for up to 54 hours in LP mode without changing a disc, tape or other recording media. Panasonic's Anti-Shock Shield helps protect recorded video data from damage due to jolts and impact. The Drop Detect function senses if the camera is falling and moves the head away from the hard disk. You can transfer the motion-image data from the SD card or the camcorder's hard drive right to your PC using your USB port. With the included VideoCam Suite 1.0 software, you can easily put scenes in a different order and delete the ones you don't want. Advanced OIS Optical Image Stabilization Focal Length - 1.8 - 90 mm 35mm Film Camera Equivalent - 40.9-2046 mm [4 - 3], 33.4-1607 mm [16 - 9] Motion Image, and 40.7-2036 mm [4 - 3]/33.2-1658 mm [16 - 9] Still Picture White Balance - Auto, Indoor, Outdoor, and White Set with IR Sensor High Speed Shutter - 1/30-1/8000 (Motion Image), 1/30-1/500 (Still Picture) Backlight Compensation LCD Monitor - 2.7 Wide (123,200 Dots) Pure Color Engine Soft-Skin Mode Easy-to-Use Mode Dial MagicPix Images Microphone Stereo Zoom Wind Noise Reduction Date Recording - Auto Date in Date Code Quick Start - 0.6 seconds

 The camera sucks!! December 24, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Still photos look awful. Poor quality, dark, washed out. Details are hilarious. And the movies are recorded in a proprietary format which makes it very difficult to share. For whatever reason, each video has three files: one for video, one for audio, and one for who knows what?
DOES NOT RECORD IN ANY STANDRD VIDEO FORMAT!!!
I regret buying this piece of garbage.
People who are giving this a good review either have low standards, or know nothing about what constitutes a good camera.
 Works for us! December 18, 2008

We bought this camera to capture life with our new baby girl. So far, it has worked great. It seems to hold a charge for quite some time (we haven't ran the battery dead yet) and is very easy to operate. I was able to upload our videos to our PC with no problem.
I know the big complaint has been the accompanying video editing software, but we're not "techie" folks, so we will likely never even attempt to use that software.
I do wholeheartedly recommend buying and using a SD card with any camera; if you store only to the HD and something happens to that HD, you're out of luck completely, whereas with the SD card, you may be out whatever was on the card (which is why you should upload frequently), but at least you can get a new card.
Simple to use, great price December 12, 2008

I bought this camera based on a Consumer REports recommendation. IT is a great product, small, light and very simple to use. Simple functions makes it easy to use by everyone.
I just wish it had a Flash for its still picture function. It doesnt include a memory stick, it should.

Excellent Camcorder for the price, got it few days from 6th ave. Did lot of research and decided on this. Upgraded from Panasonic MINI-DV. Seen people complain about the software, but I found it good software. But you have to upgrade it from panasonic web site, go to support and upgrade the software and you will have the latest software for the product.
Pros: Small size, nice optical zoom, BIG hard drive
Cons: Video quality little grainy in low light, but all camcorders in this price have the same issue
 If I only would have known about the editing software! September 29, 2008

I am rating this a 2 only because you HAVE TO use the lousy software that comes with it.I would like to say that J. Henry said all that was going through my head. I don't have the patience for this...if I could just convince my hubby to try the comparable Sony we were looking at....it just didn't seem to be as user friendly....that might be something I can learn to deal with and overcome! Great Camera, lousy software and no way around it!
