Panasonic VDR-D300 DVD camcorder review

April 25th 2006 | Cameras

Panasonic has clearly attempted to apply the same strategy to the DVD camcorder which has been such a success for it in the DV world – namely, bringing three-CCD technology down to a much lower price point. Just as this has brought new levels of image quality to affordable DV camcorders, it looks like it could be just as successful for the DVD market.

The VDR-D300 is capable of truly excellent video quality. In fact, we’d say it’s the best we’ve seen in any DVD camcorder yet. While you do pay a premium for the DVD recording format, that’s true of every DVD camcorder, even single-chip models. So while this is a pricey bit of kit, if you fancy the idea of shooting video straight to disc, Panasonic’s VDR-D300 should be top of your list.
