'This camera's built-in light will make it easier to film in dim environments.'
'A zoom microphone automatically adjusts with the lens for optimal melding of picture and sound, while wind-noise reduction helps to eliminate unwanted distraction'
'The camcorder that leads the way in Panasonic's one-chip MiniDV line is the PV-GS19, a small periwinkle camcorder'
'Compact and easy to use'
'The icons can be a little tough to decipher, especially when you encounter the Panasonic-specific features like Skin Tone correction and MagicPix (low light mode).'
'The optical zoom feature acts like a telescope to produce close-up shots with extraordinary clarity so you won't miss a single detail.'
'its small size makes it hard to handle; my hands overwhelmed most of the controls, and it is impossible to access most of the manual controls while shooting due to their placement beneath the recessed LCD screen.'
'Another negative aspect of the PV-GS9's performance at 3000 lux was the unattractive amount of noise in the images, as well as an unfortunate lack of quality in the grays of the grayscale.'
'Critical light is ready whenever you need it with the built-in light'
'The port placement is awkward; sticking the Firewire and USB beneath the hand strap is a mistake.'
