12 May 2009Amazing Camera for the MoneyI bought this camera for a specific purpose: Music. I go to a number of shows frequently and I'm in the process of building my own guitar instructional website. For these purposes, I wanted a camera with the following in mind:
1 - HD 2 - Record to Flash Media
With keeping a low budget in mind, I stumbled upon this camera fairly quickly (there aren't many that record to flash media, apparently - especially in this price range).
My review mainly consists of how this came...–Stephenfrom Amazon.com
26 Apr 2009Cursor button helpI just bought this camera. Does anyone else have a problem using the cursor button? I feel I have to use a fingernail and even then I can't seem to get it to work. And I agree about the low light problem. Very grainy. Unless I can figure out how to use the cursor button better I am definitely returning the camera. I am willing to try to work with the manual mode to see if it works better in low light–T. Bradyfrom Amazon.com
14 Jan 2009Not worth $500I recently purchased a HDC-SD9 from Amazon after comparing similar models offered by Sony & Canon. I am new to camcorders and after much research I was excited about SD9's tiny size, strong performance in bright environments, 1080p recording, flash memory and ability to take pictures while shooting. Besides the size and sleek design this device is a monumental disappointment.
Cons:
- Crappy, crappy, really crappy pictures. Picture taken at 2.1 MP stand-alone is horrible enough....–Aparajithan Vaidyanathanfrom Amazon.com
"With its eye-catching, compact body and relatively low price, the Panasonic HDC-SD9 seems to be quite an attractive buy for a flash-based AVCHD camcorder.
