Good Quality, Easy to Use, Though Not for Budget-Minded (Part 5)

Author's Rating: Rating: 4/5 stars

Pros: Easy to use, manual focus ring, large 3.5" LCD screen, high resolution

Cons: Weak on manual controls, expensive, there are alternatives with Canon or Panasonic for less

Bottom Line:
Better resolution than the HC65, but pricey. The cost for the HC85 isn't too bad considering the high video resolution and 2 megapixel stills Read More
