Top Lab Tested Camcorders
Panasonic HDC-SDT750
With the HDC-SDT750, Panasonic is bringing 3D videography to the masses. With its $1399 price tag the camcorder definitely isn’t cheap, but it is still comparable in cost to other flagship models.
Canon Vixia HF G10
With the Vixia HF G10 ($1499 MSRP), Canon's latest flagship camcorder, the company decided to use a completely different image sensor with a smaller amount of pixels. If you check out the results from our performance testing, you'll quickly see the change paid off—particularly in low light situations. The only drawback? The HF G10 cannot capture high-resolution still photos.
Panasonic HDC-TM900
The Panasonic HDC-TM900 is the successor to the lauded HDC-TM700, our pick for Camcorder of the Year in 2010. The TM900 offers the same fantastic video performance as its predecessor, particularly with its widely-praised 1080/60p mode, but Panasonic didn't improve on much else.
Canon Vixia HF M40
The Canon HF M40 is the latest mid-range camcorder from Canon. With the same risky new sensor, this impressive bargain has great low light performance and a plethora of manual controls.
Sony Handycam HDR-TD10
The twin lens system featured prominently on the front of the Sony HDR-TD10 should tell you one thing: this is a camcorder that can record 3D video.
JVC GS-TD1
Packed with two lenses and two sensors, the Everio GS-TD1 is JVC's take on a 3D camcorder aimed at consumers. The unit's bulky design is strange, that's for sure, but the amount of controls and options in 3D mode are unprecedented for a 3D camcorder. The TD1 is also capable of capturing top-notch 2D video, and its 3D lens calibration system is entirely automated, which makes it fairly simple to switch between the two modes.
Sony Handycam HDR-CX700V
Sony's newest high-end camcorder—the Handycam HDR-CX700V—offers Full HD 60p and 24p recording, as well as a traditional 60i record mode. These new frame rate options, along with the camcorder's 96GB of internal flash memory, make it one of the more intriguing flagship models to hit the shelves in 2011.
Panasonic HDC-TM90
The TM90 is one of the most affordable consumer-level cameras to offer full 1080/60p HD shooting. We put the camera through its paces to see how much it has improved over last year's models.
JVC GC-PX10
The GC-PX10 represents JVC's latest attempt at making a true photo/video "hybrid" device, which is something the company has been toying with over the last couple of years.
Sony Handycam HDR-PJ30V
The Sony Handycam HDR-PJ30V ($959 MSRP) seems like your average mid-range HD camcorder—until you notice there's a built-in video projector on the back of the camcorder's LCD. The projector is far from perfect, but it could be a valuable tool for those who want to recap their footage without the presence of an HDTV.
JVC Everio GZ-HD620
The GZ-HD620 is a mid-range HD camcorder from JVC that records to an internal 120GB hard drive as well as offering a MicroSD card slot. The camcorder is low on frills, captures high-quality video, and has a reasonable price tag of $649.
Canon Vixia HF R21
The Vixia HF R21 is Canon's newest entry-level HD camcorder and it's designed as a replacement for last year's HF R11. The camcorder comes with 32GB of internal flash memory, two memory card slots, and a new touchscreen interface on its 3-inch LCD.
