Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Empty

The Panasonic HDC-HS9 offers full High-Definition, 1920 x 1080 progressive Recording (24 frames per second) and use the AVCHD Video format. In addition, it features Panasonic's original 3CCD system, Advanced MEGA O.I.S. Optical Image Stabilizer, and a Leica Dicomar lens. Advanced MEGA O.I.S. checks and compensates for handshake around 4,000 times per second, about eight times more effectively than Panasonic's previous systems. In a 3CCD camera system, the light received through the lens is split into its three primary Color components and a signal from each is processed by one of the 3CCDs to provide rich and detailed video images. Face Detection automatically locates any faces in the picture and adjusts the exposure, contrast and skin tone to achieve optimal results. With Intelligent Shooting Guide, the HDC-HS9 will detect when shooting conditions are poor and then display tips on the LCD as a way for you to correct the error before recording the content. Intelligent Shooting Guide can detect errors when the camcorder is panning too quickly or tilted, when the user's hand is swinging, when the subject is backlit, or the lighting is too low. The HS9 is a hybrid model and can record full-High Definition images onto either an SD (or SDHC) Memory Card or to its built-in 60-GB hard disk. The 60-GB hard disk can hold up to 23 hours. Features Face Detection and an Intelligent Shooting Guide Helps prevent recording errors being viewed during playback, as it will automatically skip over any shots that have serious errors, such as hand swing, fast panning, out-of-focus images or shots of the ground taken when the user forgets to turn off the camcorder Five microphones provide viewers

    Pros & Cons :
    the customer service is beyond terrible, and they wanted to charge $228 to look at the camcorder that i purchased 13 months ago (which is out of 1 year warranty).

    ...Keep in mind that was the quote to look at the camcorder, not to fix it. They would also not guarantee my files would not be deleted from this terrible device. Use at your own risk, because Pana ... read more

    Pros & Cons :
    for example, when using it to video the family building an igloo in the snow, it recommended using "smart contrast" and with a display on the screen, told me how to do that.

    ...We had one day to learn how to use it. That was no problem, as this camera was easy to use. It has a lot of functions, but it also recommends which to use, and how to. For example, when using it t ... read more

    Pros & Cons :
    the video taken by the camera is good, but doesn't stand out from that taken by any other hd camcorder.

    Average hardware, horrible software makes a painful combination

    Pros & Cons :
    however, the sound quality of the camera is great.

  • Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Full Posted: June 11 2008 review from Amazon User
    Pros & Cons :
    as some of the earlier reviews have pointed out, this awesome little camera suffered from lack of support in apple's editing applications like imovie 08.

    ...Well that's all in the past. With the release of OS 10.5.3 and QuickTime 7.5 a few days ago, the HDC-HS9 (and the non-hard drive HDC-SD9 as well) are now fully compatible. You can easily import an ... read more
