Product Description
Record directly onto DVD-RAM or DVD-R discs for multiple recording and playback options. With DVD-RAM discs you never have to worry about erasing a recording or finding blank space. You can just start recording. DVD-RAM discs can also be played back in compatible devices, like select computers and home DVD-players. DVD-R discs are strong and versatile, and can also be played back on most home DVD players.The VDR-M53 has a built-in digital still camera which lets you capture incredibly lifelike still images directly onto a DVD disc or SD Memory Card. Now you can store all your memories form a special event conveniently in one place.The optical zoom acts like a telescope to produce close-up shots with extraordinary clarity. And, with variable zoom speeds, you can adjust how fast the camcorder lens moves from wide-angle to full telescope. In addition, the digital zoom ratio can be increased up to an extraordinary 800x. Now that's close up!Digital EIS compensates for unintentional hand and camcorder movement to help stabilize your recordings, even while you're recording as a passenger from a moving vehicle or while walking. With Digital EIS, you will not have to worry about shaky soccer games or family outings.You can also record onto SD Memory Cards. These versatile, high-capacity storage cards are extremely small - about the size of a postage stamp. They work as "digital film, " letting you capture images and then transfer them to a compatible PC, TV, PDA, or other device equipped with an SD slot. It is an easy way to share your images with friends and family.The LCD monitor provides excellent viewing clarity in full vivid color. The 2.5" diagonal color LCD screen rotates up to 270-degrees for multiple viewing angles, providing sharp, detailed images for monitoring or playback. Now you can enjoy your finished recordings right on the spot.

    The Panasonic DVD Palmcorder Camcorder VDR-M53 is a 3" DVD-RAM and 3" DVD-R-based, ultra-compact camcorder.

    If you're a beginner like me, at least for a DVD Camcorders -- then this is a good one for you. This was a definite improvement from my old Sony Hi-8 Camcorder... So light weight, compact and good quality. Of course like any other new technologies, you need to read instructions, fiddle with it and keep using it until you are comfortable. I guarantee that you can master recording videos in no time at all!

    Price? It's a little expensive, maybe around $500-$600 (when it first came out, I paid $545) but you can find good deals anywhere today (especially on eBay Auctions), it's just a matter of looking around. Sometimes Circuit City or bestbuy have good deals too.

    Quality? Pretty good. Good button display, easy to navigate, do very well in filming dark places. For Stills, not really that great but it's a-ok. It's easy to handle, and what I love most is the zoom. It can go way far and still have great images.

    Recommended Accessories:
    SD Memory Card at least 125 MB thru 512MB (for stills)
    Camcorder Case for extra protection
    3" DVD-R, or 3"DVD-RAM - Use the 30 mins.I use Sony DVD-R cause it's good quality and great price.
    Extra Rechargeable batteries
