The SD1 looks stunning, and performs even better. If this is what AVCHD delivers, then we?re totally sold.

First let me remind you that we are not professionals when it comes to video but, we do have good knowledge of the products after many reviews and most of all we used most of those in real conditions...Thanks to its light weight (430g) and small dimension

I was skeptical about a camcorder that records high-definition video onto an SD Card. What kind of compression is going on behind the scenes to make it fit? My doubts soon faded--the Panasonic HDC-SD1 captures (and stores) video of exceptional quality. Ho

Our doubts faded - the HDC-SD1 captures and stores video of exceptional quality...At its best quality setting, the HDC-SD1 can record 40 minutes of 1080i video to a 4GB SD card...When we tested the HDC-SD1, no video-editing software supported the format,

The body of Panasonic's 1.1-pound HDC-SD1, which records high-definition 1,440x1,080 AVCHD video to SD cards, is a mite smaller than camcorders which use other formats, but its tubular shape retains a bit too much bulk to be truly compact...The extra

Panasonics HDC-SD1 is the worlds smallest high-definition camcorder. It achieves this feat by using flash memory in the form of a Secure Digital card. The 4GB SD card supplied in the box is good for about an hours worth of HD footage. Whether this ...
