Panasonic VDR-VD100

Strengths: Compact, Not too many bells and whistles for the first timer (me), 30x Optical zoom works great!

Weakness: No software accompanies this camera. no explanation on how to transfer to PC

This camera when you pull it out of the box is very nice looking while the size is what makes you think carry it around would be painless. The menu is very easy to use and compared to some higer end cameras, is a good firt time owner of camcorders. The 30x Optical zoom is great! I purchased this to use at my daughters culmination and being a distance from where they sat and the stage, this camera...

Pretty good entry level camcorder with DVD

Strengths: Very compact. DVD's are easy to transfer and use. 30x optical zoom pretty decent.

Weakness: Doesn't use DVD+R's. Have to finalize to use in DVD players. Screen could be bigger.

Not a bad entry level camcorder. Not the highest quality picture but not bad. 30x optical zoom is quite good. Don't recommend using digital zoom. Handled Sony DVD-RW's without a problem. Really compact and small to handle. Nice job Panasonic.

Panasonic VDR-D100

Strengths: Size, easy to record

Weakness: It doesn't ship with software & is VERY difficult to transfer files from DVD- RAM to the Mac.

The hassle of no software & the DVD-RAM is not worth the price or ease of use of this product. If I were you I'd stick with Cannon or Sony.

Don't Buy!

Strengths: When it takes the video, they turn out alright

Weakness: The software

The camcorder was a gift and did not come with the software. It is nearrly impossible to get. You have to pay for it and to have it shipped. Keep it or everytime that you switch computers, you'll need it again. They only offer the updates to the software on the website. It has taken hours of my time and needless frustration. Just google vdr d100 (this is the product #) and see for yourself. There...

Panasonic VDR-D100 Camcorder Review

The Panasonic VDR-D100 is the lowest-end DVD camcorder the company is offering this year. It lacks all the features that you typically miss in the entry-level models – a 2.5” rather than 2.7” LCD, and there is no still media card because the camcorder doesn’t take stills. This model gets down to brass tacks – video footage straight to DVD, no frills. At $500, you get what you pay for.
