PD150

Author's Rating: 3/5 stars  

Pros: 3CCD, manual zoom, image quality, low compression DVCAM format, full manual controls.

Cons: Hissy sound, quirky auto over-rides, really need expensive DVCAM tapes to get best from camera.

Bottom Line:
Would be excellent but let down by poor sound quality. Still better than the fiddly Canon XL1s Read More
