Rated 4 out of 5

Very Good Camcorder for the price

Good camcorder. Don't zoom in and out too much, because the focus will get messed up and it's hit or miss from there. The Wifi with Image App is very good. Video taken with Intelligent Auto is very good, and the zoom is excellent.

Give Panasonic camera's a wide birth

I've bough two of Panasonic's handycam models and both have broken in under 12 months, I've tried on several occasions to contact them and had no success, the problems I've had are with the auto focus on one camera jamming and on the latest camera black screen of death
