Strengths: Nice feature set for the price, (~ $300)
Weaknesses: very poor quality, arragance from the manufacturer.
Summary: Within the 1st week of owning the camcorder I discovered a critical defect, (the tape was wrapping around the recording head). After modest pain of the warranty repair process and 2 weeks, I received the unit back.
It worked as expected over the next few months, (approx. 30 min. of recording time). Attempted to use the camcorder in mid February, similar defect experienced again.
Panasonic claims warranty will cover parts only, not labor. Repair estimate from Electra Sound Inc, (original service provider in Cleveland Oh.) $167, more than half the cost of the unit.
Due to the manufacturer's position on this repair, my family I will NEVER even consider purchasing another Panasonic product in my lifetime!
