Great Home Camera by Lorraine Mitchell on amazon.com Jun 5, 2012
This is a great camera for home movies or Youtube videos etc. I got it last Christmas, and have been using it constantly. I recommend storing everything on an SD card so that you can easily move it over to your computer (assuming your computer has an ...
 
Solid, efficient camcorder by dmschefke on bhphotovideo.com Dec 27, 2011
I wouldn't call myself a pro with camcorders, but I have seen many cameras and the videos that they produce. For the cost of this item and the quality that it produces, I cannot currently find a better value. It has solid picture quality, 16gb internal ...

Absolutely amazing! by Rick D "Jesus Freak" on amazon.com Mar 11, 2012
I had a miniDV camera and I wanted to upgrade to something that could import the video to my computer easily. I couldn't be happier with this camera! It's easy to use and has the capability to record to a memory card or internal flash. I use a mini-HDMI ...
 
Perfect fit for my needs by M. Yeatts on amazon.com Nov 8, 2011
We needed a HD camcorder, but didn't want to spend a lot of money and this item was perfect. We use it to record kids' football games and this is very easy to use, both recording and uploading. The menu is very intuitive. The only drawbacks are: - ...

Bad quality! by Anne Leclerc on amazon.com Jun 22, 2012
Do not buy this camera. You cannot use it indoors. Quality is not HD unless outside in very bright sunlight. All indoor videos, no matter how good the lighting conditions are (even bright sunlight coming through a window), look splotchy like a damaged VHS tape. We are very disappointed.
 
good shopping and delivery experience - bad product by DRavi on amazon.com Dec 21, 2011
This is not a reflection on the product or the brand in itself - rather my own experience. We had a simple and easy shopping experience on Amazon, prompt shipping from the seller, however the camera would just not charge. Guess we got a bad piece or something..we ...

I bought this camera. Made some recordings. Plugged it into my Mac and IT DOESN'T WORK!!! The software won't download and I can not view vido on my laptop. I can download the photos I took with it. WHO CARES!! I need the video!
 
Is this thing made for kids? by Phil "phil" on amazon.com Dec 6, 2011
The quality of the video from this camera is outrageous... outrageously BAD!!! I'm puzzled as to why this is actually HD, because the quality of the video is worse than my video camera from a decade ago. The menu is difficult to navigate and requires ...
 
Don't buy this "throwaway"-stopped working at 90 days old and repair cost higher than new camera by Michael S. Hanton on amazon.com Apr 1, 2012
This brand new HDC-TM41H Panasonic camcorder purchased at Amazon stopped working right at 90 days old, but was sent in 2 weeks after breaking (after 90 day labor warranty), and labor cost quoted to repair the camera was greater than the cost of the new ...

Panasonic HDC-TM41 Review - Digital Camcorders - CNET Reviews
They're compact and have manual controls, a zoom lens, and a video light, which is nice for the price of the Panasonic HDC-SD40, TM40 and TM41 ....When it comes to video quality, you're getting what you pay for....Like their cheap competitors from Sony and Canon, Panasonic's budget-priced HDR-SD40, TM40 and TM41 are only nominally high-definition...The result is generally poor video quality, though how bad it looks depends upon how you view it...The TM40 and...
