The Panasonic SDR S150 Flash is a great choice for the point and shoot filmmaker with some desire for manual controls. No sacrifice in film quality for size here: The Panasonic SDR S150 produces the same video performance as Panasonic’s top-of-the-line camcorder, and the S150 is half the size.

You may prefer Panasonic SDR S150’s larger LCD screen, significantly larger than the Canon camcorder. This camcorder comes with three 1/6” CCDs, each with 800K gross pixels, which translates into 540K effective pixels when filming in 16:9. Like most camcorders in the microdrive category, recording capacity may be a problem. If you require more than 2GB SD card, purchase a 4GB SDHC card, but you’re still looking at just about an hour of high end video.

Experts praise Panasonic SDR S150’s design and easy to use controls. Unfortunately, disappointment was expressed about this camcorder’s finished product: video showed interlace artifacts and trouble with white balance. Users are enthusiastic about the Panasonic SDR S150’s compact size, performance under a variety of conditions, and the ease of transferring video directly to their computers.

All in all, a good choice for those looking for high performance in a small package. The Panasonic SDR S150 has been embraced by consumers, as seen in a consistent record of customer satisfaction.

The SDR-S150 is best left for Panasonic enthusiasts. While it does offer some benefits and high quality video, the price tag and lack of technology leave the Panasonic SDR-S150 well behind the competition from Sony and JVC....

Testfreaks

The Panasonic SDR-S150 is similar to last year’s model, the SDR-S100. In fact, the SDR-S150 has not changed much at all. While some may see this as a bad thing, others are relishing in the fact that Panasonic kept...
