  • Not for Lightweight Camcorder Users

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 6, 2006
    Pros: Tapeless format without moving parts, excellent image quality
    Cons: Complicated for newcomers into the field

    Summary: We just received an AG-HVX200 and I tell you, it's got more menus than a powerhouse Chinese restaurant. It's not for people who enjoy the pyro-friendly camera; there are menus with the depth of a 15-layer cake. The reason is because the camera can be ... read more

  • Excellent camera overall, its versatility really shines

    Pros: Versatile, customizable settings, firewire/usb, excellent lens, point&shoot simplicity or completely manual
    Cons: Heavy, may have cheaper alternatives, P2 is very expensive, lack of support from Panasonic

    Summary: The HVX200 was really my first experience with a pro-sumer camera, and in many ways I was impressed, and in other ways I was somewhat apprehensive.Before the HVX200, I had extensive experience with a Canon mini-disc camcorder, which worked well ... read more

    Pros: dont ever have to use tapes again
    Cons: P2 cards and so expensive, cant wait for 16 or 32 gigs

    Summary: Why ever use tape again, ever. The option to shoot in so many different compression formats is great. Even if you arent using HD, just standard def. You put the p2 card in, shoot, pull it out, put it in your computer...so easy. No more real time

  • HVX is one great hammer!

    Pros: Versatility, No digitizing, Slo-mo and Timelapse, Professional quality without the price
    Cons: Bit on the heavy side. LCD quality isn't very good. P2 record times are short

    Summary: Simply the best camera I've ever owned or operated that didn't cost 150K... The video quality is unparalled in this price point. Simply beats the tar out of the HDV flavor of cameras. The IT tapeless workflow is such a dream. Slow motion out

    Pros: great camera, features, price, image quality
    Cons: single lens, expensive media, focus ring improvements

    Summary: The HVX camera from Panasonic is targeted at the commercial and prosumer market. Featuring a multitude of items that other cameras seem to be missing : real slow motion, true 24p recording,low HD compression, excellent 4 channel uncompressed sound, full

    Pros: Picture quality, durability, tapeless, built-in microphone, many options...
    Cons: Cost of P2 cards and their small storage space. (For now)

    Summary: A versatile camera with more features than it's $77,000 big brother, but at a fraction of the cost. True High Definition video with very little compression. I tested JVC's ProHD GY-HD100U and Cannon's XL H1 HD camcorders. The Panasonic HVX200 beat them
