The HC-V700 can get you high-end video performance at a mid-range camcorder price. It's videos in bright light look crisp and smooth, and the new image sensor really helped the camcorder reduce noise in low light as well. Recording with the 1080/60p option gets you the highest image quality the camcorder offers, but it also creates the largest clips (and many video editing programs have difficulty working with them). Still, the HC-V700's regular 60i HD record modes do a decent enough job and the videos still look very good—just not quite as sharp as the 60p clips.
