Compact and versatile, the PV-DV203 Digital Palmcorder MultiCam? Camcorder from Panasonic offers features that produce high quality videos and stills. It combines a digital camcorder, digital still camera and teleconferencing Web camera capabilities, all in one easy-to-use camcorder. The Palmcorder offers several shooting options, digital effects, and quick and easy connection to a computer using either the IEEE 1394 (i.LINK) or USB interface. The progressive PhotoShot? mode eliminates fuzziness by digitally capturing the image data of a singular moment, and temporarily storing it in two field memories. The two images are then combined to produce a better quality picture. With the Picture-in-Picture mode you can insert a previously taken digital still image into the video you?re recording. Digital EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) compensates for unintentional hand and camcorder movement to help stabilize your recordings. This feature reduces jitter when recording as a passenger in a car or while walking. Less

Give special moments the attention they deserve with the Panasonic PVGS31 digital camcorder. Compact and easy to use, it's engineered with an Advanced Pure Color Engine LSI for superior color reproduction and a 680,000-pixel CCD for superb image clarity. Plus, a built-in LED light and Color Night View technology let you capture crisp, colorful movies even in poor lighting. A zoom microphone automatically adjusts with the lens for optimal melding of picture and sound, while wind-noise reduction helps to eliminate unwanted distraction. And an automatic soft-skin function detects skin tones to diminish the look of wrinkles and blemishes. Less

Review: My old camera was a Digital 8 I loved it and it took great pictures, but it was older and didn t have the still photo option (I did my best with capturing stills from the video but it s not the same) features the newer models have. When the need to...

Great buy for someone in need of side loading camera

by motioncapture , Oct 2, 2003
Pros: Portable, Affordable, Side Tape Loading lets you reload while still mounted on a tripod.
Cons: non-standard lens threads (27mm), camera auto-shuts down when tape is loaded.
The Bottom Line: Great price, Good image, Good controls. Amazing how small it is! Great for family vacations, sneaking into concerts (kidding!!) etc. Good for Motion Capture reference footage.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: I spent well over two days researching MiniDV cameras, and finally bought the PV-DV 203.

Since I operate an optical motion capture studio, I have very specific needs that others may not have. But I hope this info is some help for you!

The Bottom Line: Save your money until you can purchase a better quality camcorder to preserve your memories.
This reviewer does not recommend this product.
Review: I bought this camera for $250 on Black Friday. It was replacing an old Sony 8mm. After much research it seemed that Mini DV was the way to go.

Any reviews you have read about poor quality film in low-light are NO exaggeration. The...
