- Pana PV-GS320 Camcorder
- I bought this GS320 to replace a GS12 that quit working after about 6 or 7 years. It serves as a back-up for my Sony PD170 that I use to record high school football and volleyball games and live music events around South Texas. I was going to use it just for cut-a-ways for the videos and to act as a rewinder for all of the miniDV tapes that I run through the PD170. It turns out that the sound it records at live musical events is actually better that the sound I record using the PD170's removable mike. That will change once I start using the remote mic I have purchased, plus, at larger events I am able to tie directly into the sound board with the Sony.
The GS320 is a great, lightweight (in a good way!)camcorder loaded with an easy to use menu system. It is wonderful to use at outside events, but it lacks a little when used indoors at venues that use dim lighting.
It is a 3CCD camcorder, so the picture is crisp, clear and clean when the lighting is good. I am still learning all of the camera's features, but so far I am happy with my purchase and, once again, Amazon was amazing!

- Great Little Camera
- Picture quality is excellent, especially outdoor shots on sunny days. The color reproduction is very good. Indoor shots are also very good and even low light shots aren't bad. This was a huge step-up from the old VHS HQ camera I used to use. Transferring the video to a computer with an IEEE 1394 (firewire) cable is easy and doesn't result in any loss of picture quality or frame rate. Videos do take up a large amount of hard drive space (594 Mb for a 2.5 minute clip), but the quality is exceptional. It certainly isn't HD but the picture will look very good on a standard definition TV (the output resolution is the same as DVDs use, 720x480). The camera is quite small so it is very easy to get shaky pictures and the image stabilizer doesn't always react fast enough to fix some of the jitters. With some practice though it's not bad.
