Top Panasonic VDR-D100 Camcorder Reviews
SimplyDV.co.uk wrote a review of the
Panasonic VDR-D100
and said: "Like its partner, the VDR-D150, this entry-level DVD
camcorder pretty well does everything promised of it by
Panasonic. It must be remembered that it's an entry-point
camcorder which comes with a low price tag and is aimed at the
beginner who seeks the convenience of recording direct to DVD
rather than to digital tape (such as MiniDV)."
Panasonic VDR-D100 News Release Summary:
New Line Features Multi-Format Compatibility, Powerful 30x
Optical Zoom
And Includes Two 3CCD Models
LAS VEGAS, NV (January 4, 2006) ¾ Panasonic introduces a new
line of innovative DVD camcorders that capture crisp,
high-resolution digital video on convenient 8cm DVD-R, DVD-RW
and DVD-RAM discs.
“The DVD-RAM format allows non-linear editing right in the
camcorder, and gives the greatest flexibility in re-recording,”
explains Rudy Vitti, national marketing manager, Panasonic
Optical Group. “And for added compatibility, consumers can also
record onto DVD-R and DVD-RW discs, which will play back in most
standard DVD players.”
Panasonic’s 2006 line offers the advantages of DVD recording
technology starting with a suggested retail price of $499.95,
with model VDR-D100. It features 30x optical zoom, a color
viewfinder, 2.5” LCD, joystick control for easy, one-finger
navigation, and high-speed USB 2.0 interface.
Model VDR-D200 adds an SD Memory Card slot, a built-in LED color
enhancement light and VGA still picture recording.
The new VDR-250 features 3 CCDs, 2.3 mega-pixel still image
recording, 10x optical zoom, 2.7” widescreen LCD and 16:9
widescreen format recording.
Finally, the VDR-300 offers 3 CCDs, and adds a Leica lens,
Optical Image Stabilization, 3.1 mega-pixel still image
recording, and built-in flash.
“This is one of the fastest-growing digital video markets”, said
Vitti. “DVD camcorders are a logical choice for consumers who
want to capture and preserve their personal memories with the
high image quality combined with the convenience of the DVD
format.”
