Panasonic SDR-H86 Camcorder Review


which camcorder should i keep: canon optura 40 vs. panasonic pv-gs180?


i have owned a canon optura 40 for two years now, and mainly use it for indoor home video of my kids. a couple days ago i received a panasonic pv-gs180 for christmas, and need to decide which one to keep. i’ve had a hard time deciding based on reviews, since the reviews of these cameras are calibrated according to the prevailing standards at the time of the cameras’ release. i’d like to decide without having to open up the panasonic pv-gs180 to facilitate returning it, if that’s what i end up doing.

any advice would be appreciated!
