The PV-GS300 is Panasonic’s follow up to the GS250 (Review, Specs, $1299.99), a highly praised camcorder of 2005. Second-to-the-top in their MiniDV line, the GS300 has undergone a number of changes, not all for the better. The focus ring, headphone jack, and analog-to-digital pass through have all been stripped away. Painful, yes? But the MSRP has dropped to $699 – that’s $300 less than the GS250. New features include a widescreen LCD, a smaller body, and arguably better video performance. Is it worth the cost?
