Product Details of Panasonic AG-DVX100B Mini DV Camcorder

Description

The AG-DVX100B is the most recent version of the Panasonic 24-frame standard definition video camera. When initially introduced, the AG-DVX100 (pre-A model) was the first small video camcorder to offer film-like 24-frame per second recording. High-end shoulder mount cameras offer film-speed recording, but the operation of one of these cameras requires a large production crew and oodles of money. This model comes with added gamma correction and other cine' picture-look settings than the first model.

GREAT camera for independent film / industrial

Strengths: excellent "film" look in 24p, easy to to use, lots of features, very cost effective price

Weakness: sort of cheap, plastic body; lens not very flexible; weak OEM battery

This is an EXCELLENT camera value for people wanting a relatively inexpensive camera but professional look; the 24p mode offers video that looks like film, and holds up on the big screen if you're projecting a project, but particularly looks great on a TV monitor. For much less than the cost of a regular camera rental for a long shoot, you can get your own camera with a real quality look that...

Panasonic DVX 100B

Strengths: 24 fps capability. incredible auto-focus. Great in low light situations. Very light and balanced weight. Great product for the price.

Weakness: Ten times zoom isn't enough for some situations.

The Panasonic DVX100B is the best camera I have used to date. I can honestly say that it is much stonger than the panasonics original dvx100 which was a good camera as well but the Panasonic Dvx100B definitely is much stronger in areas of white balancing auto features. To be honest I could see a quality difference with the cameras. I love this camera and I highly recommend it. The auto focus...

DV camcorder newbie.

Strengths: Shoots well in various lighting condtions, even low light. Very easy to use.

Weakness: Has a hard time accurately reproducing different shades of red.

I had not used a DV camcorder before so I spent time researching. The Panasonic DVX 100 line received positive reviews from the professional camera operators I talked to. Furthermore, the DVX 100B received glowing product reviews from several tech websites. I have been very pleased with this camera. It has several automatic functions that make it easy to operate for newbies like myself. The auto...

This is a great camera. The 25p mode is extremely...

Strengths: Both 25p and 50i mode available. Easy standalone and multicamera use. Affordable pricing.

Weakness: No variable framerate for slowmotion stuff like AG-HVX200.

I use two of these cameras in my company 040-itv for all TV and DVD productions. Using both 50i and 25p depending on the desired effect. Motion, resolution and brightness differ depending on the selected mode. I also use the wide angle conversion lens on one camera. So I can get even closer to the object. Compared to most consumer models this camera hardly displays any noise artifacts. Even...

Excellent camera

Strengths: Great progressive scan - filmic emulation.

Weakness: Isn't high definition.

I just received this camera in the mail - can't wait to start using it. After doing some research, I had gathered that the consensus opinion of those in the industry is that this is the best you can do if you're looking to shoot in standard def. I couldn't afford to make the leap to hi def at this time, but am very pleased with what this camera can do - user friendliness and the quality of the...

Great camera for professionals

Strengths: White balance, great focus & long lasting battery.

Weakness: On-camera mic is fair. Want to get high-quality mic to attach on camera.

This is a perfect camera for professionals, especially when you have to film on the go and don't have a lot of time for set-up. The auto-focus is amazing, its fast and crisp. The camera is easy to use. I highly recommend this camera.

Great Camera for those Interested in Taking the...

Strengths: Great Layout of controls, wonderful balance, this unit shipped with a book dedicated entirely to successfully using it and getting the most from its features (The DVX Book)

Weakness: Nothing worth mentioning

This is a really great camera to purchase if you are thinking of taking your skill set to the next level. I have upgraded from a PS-GV400 and have been happy with my Panasonic video cameras. I did a lot of research before purchasing this camera and was impressed at the many video clips I watched and their cinematic look. The AG-DVX100 has an established and positive history, currently in its...
