Features: Claiming to be YouTube-friendly, this camcorder is stuffed with several features that have become a norm with any typical Panasonic product. If you are holding the camcorder too low then the sub record button will help you adjust the settings even with one hand. The Lithium-ion batteries will disappear even before you reach the half-way of your shooting, so carry as many extra packs as possible.

Pros:

Cons:

• Basically, there is not much difference between this camcorder and its earlier version the SDR-SW20 model.
