Theres two new HD models on the horizon - the HS9 and the SD9, as well as a couple of new standard models. The mini H7 features a YouTube uploaded feature and the SW20, which is everything-proof and red. You heard it here first.

Many of Panasonics HD camcorders have only an SDHC memory card slot for storage, but the HDC-HS9 adds a hard disk into the mix. Its 60GB capacity will store around eight hours of HD video even at the highest quality setting of 17Mbit/s. Add a 16GB...

This attractive camcorder can record 1920x1080-pixel high-definition video onto SD and SDHC memory cards, or its built-in 60GB hard disc. When the highest-quality HA mode is selected, the disc drive can store over seven hours of 1920x1080-pixel high-de...

The HDC-HS9 is arguably the best high-definition camcorder in its price range; with the possible exception of its stablemate; the HDC-SD9. For our money, the HDC-HS9 comes out slightly on top due to its 60GB hard drive. Highly recommended.

Although all of these camcorders use the AVCHD format to record 1080I video, Panasonic’s quality doesn’t compare to the other models. It’s definitely not worth the money ($999 list, $750 real world) and you should seriously look el...

IF YOU have a High Definition LCD telly, it might be time to move on to a camcorder that records in HD too. Otherwise, the footage from that old video cam that records in standard definition will not maximise the potential of the HD screens, resulting...

Panasonic's dinky HDC-SD9 may have grabbed the lion's share of our attention, but it was released in tandem with another new model. The HDC-HS9 doesn't have quite the same miniaturised appeal, being about 10mm wider and noticeably heavier. However, it doe...
We forgave the HDC-SD9's lack of hobbyist features, because its tiny size and reasonable price will make you much more likely to keep it with you at all times. Although the HDC-HS9 has almost the same features, plus a 60GB hard disk, it's more normally pr...

Three years ago, the Panasonic HDC-HS9 would have been revolutionary, and its image-quality-to-price ratio would have impelled users to look past its limitations. Today, the camcorder is an also-ran on our comparison chart. Its most impressive features...
