The Panasonic PV-GS320 is a light-bodied MiniDV camcorder with a 2.7 inch built in LCD screen. The camcorder’s three 800,000-pixel CCD sensors are among the best available, making image quality and accuracy among the highest in MiniDV camcorders. All controls are menu-based for added convenience, which helps reduce the learning-curve time even further. The auto-mode of the Panasonic PV-GS320 offers consistently high image quality, meaning that even beginners can shoot quality footage in no time.
The optical image stabilization is among the best features available in the Panasonic PV-GS320. With a compensatory balancing mechanism, it is effectively able to eliminate most jostling and shaking, which are always issues with any camcorder’s footage. Even when zoomed-in to its max setting of 10x, nearly all movement is eliminated, producing a clean, stable image.
Experts really like the three 800,000-pixel CCD sensors of the Panasonic PV-GS320. Image details are more accurate, with more color saturation and accuracy, even in dimmer light. Users enjoyed the ease of use that the Panasonic PV-GS320 offered. Regardless of familiarity or experience, users were able to use the Panasonic PV-GS320 with satisfactory results.
The Panasonic PV-GS320 is an excellent, easy-to-use camcorder that produces high quality images. At such a low price, this MiniDV camcorder is a steal.

This was our first video camera and we bought it for a trip to Alaska. We were very happy with the results. If you use the basic "automatic" controls the camera has a short learning curve; more advanced features take a bit longer. We were especially...
