@SalamanderSk8 If you just upload the sim card (some computers have slots to insert your sim card), it can be. If you connect it to the computer, I don't think it can be.
I prefer to buy Panasonic SDR-H40 camera that can record on the hardrive and SD HC, has only a 42x zoom, but has a larger sensor size (1 / 6 ") so it's sharp . SDR-S26 has a small sensor size (1 / 8 ")
anyone know if you can edit on movie maker etc because ive heard different comments. some say that you cant edit on movie maker (different format) others say you can??? im thinking of getting this for christmas, it looks like such a good cam for the price, any help would be appreciated
I have a problem man. I just broyght this panasonic camera and, yeah, it works pretty cool. But i cant see the images in my pc as windows media player, i dunno why. I took the ntcs zone because im from latin america, but it still doesnt work. I tell you this because i want to edit on windows movie maker. If you help me i will apreciatte :) thanks.
i just ordered this camera. i did not know it could video tape planets. fucking cool technology... I'm using it for video taping MMA fights. Panasonic has a cool technology showcase facility in Tokyo. I never have had problems with other Japanese camera companies. i washed a canon cam corder and they fixed it for me for free one time.
Hey man I just bought the same cam. Just wanna know what I can do to make it better quality. Does runnin it through editin software help at all or how do i get it to fit the youtube aspect ratio? If you wanna see a demo chack out my lastest vid and if you have any advice that would be amazin ^_^.
I just bought this Camcorder and it failed already in less than 2 weeks, zoom motor goes out and then out of focus, waited over 2 months for repairs only to have it returned not repaired, same problems. NEVER BUY ANYTHING PANASONIC THEY HAVE THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPT EVER! GOOGLE THEM YOU WILL SEE! I'M JUST GOING TO BUY A NEW ONE AND SWAPPED OUT THE UNIT AND SWITCH S/N AND RETURN IT FOR A REFUND. FUCK THEM!
"I bought the camera yesterday and when i charged it. and i wanted to know if when you shake you camcorder does it make a noise. mine does and im curious about it."
I just bought this and mine does the same thing. I was worried there was something wrong with the one I got but if other people have heard the same noise, I'm not as concerned although seems silly if it is designed like that.
Well even if he is right, there is a 1 year warrenty on it which should cover something like the zoom motor not functioning properly. Also, I have a Panasonic projection tv. I have had to call customer service a few times and they def aren't as bad as people make them out to be.
@Fantasylife0531 srry its like 1 year after ur message, but i got one aswell, and it does make a strange noise if you shake it, i think it must be the springs, its not broken :D so dont worry :)
I import my video to my computer in video cam suite at 16:9 but then after converting into a mpeg it shows up warped as 4:3 in windows movie maker. Any way to keep the 16:9 Ratio??
I just used the Panasonic software to change the Mod file to an Mpeg2 file and then it can be edited in windows movie maker and/or uploaded to Youtube....
You can play around with the zoom settings and cap them at 70 x Optical or override them and have up to around 3500 x digital zoom on top of the 70 x Optical.
I am very pleased with this Camcorder and it was comparatively cheap as well. The image stabilisation is probably the best in the market as well, which helps if you are filming without a tripod.
Thanks kiuhy7, all I am waiting for now is the appearance of a ufo....... This cam has 70x optical zoom, so any of my future Ufo vids should be a lot better quality..
I ordered my camera from Electricals Direct in the U.K. and I bought an Integral 16GB Ultima Pro SD HC Card - Class 6 which gives me around 3 hours plus on the best quality.....
Nice quality.
Is there a train in the background? Sounds like it.

this camcorder isn't good,
because it has a very little chip 1/8 and 70x zoom with a little lens.
better choice:
panasonic sdr-s15 (chip= 1/6 10x zoom) so it is better combined

You have to set the high quality up from the camcorder itself, menu driven. Have a read through the manual. Hope that helps..
