Panasonic HDC-TM300 (a test)

[KatiushaVN4]

Panasonic camera sucks

[Hex72]

The compression method really messes with the quality of the motion, hah

[MrPista39]

Sorry man I did not really like the picture quality. Of third the price cameras I have seen better image quality. Also the whitebalance and exposure I think was misadjusted.

However, the moment Your dog jumps toward the camera is great

[iveywebb44]

funny guy.

[SergioBlackDolphin]

Is that in the Basingstoke Chineham area? I also seem to recognise the dog, seen the dog oftenn walking and playing with an old man.

I just bought the same camera. Your qty looks so good. I just did my first shoot and it looks soooooo bad. It was indoors. I was so disappointed but now I know I can get qty like yours Ill keep trying!

[KutWrite]

This was so well done... and fun! Your framing is excellent, as is the music.

I ran across this camcorder model by accident and am becoming swayed to it from the Canon S20 or the JVC HM300.

I esp. like the fact that this one has an EVF. The lens quality and slo-mo features seem good, too.

Thanks, Matey!

Check the vids on my channel if you like!

[unzarjones]

24p is good for WWII shows, but odd looking for anything else.

[worldidolpoland]

OMG,what a bullshit.

[biasvoltage]

I appreciate the review since my selection of cameras is coming down to this one. Video looked REALLY good. And you seem like a really nice guy too.

thanks fer the review.

[Cr381v3]

not hdr?

[asuperpower]

It is but it seems this video didn't upload in HD

[bigboss77147]

upload in hd with sony vegas 9 trail !!

[torchidman]

Love the video.............I feel a bit ripped off now; I bought the panasonic ag dvc20p pro camera two months ago for a bit over $1500 US..........and it only has a 1/6" 3 ccd, tape control and not HD!...........What sold me was its huge size that made it look professional............I now realize that I dont need the look of pro to be pro...........or what do you think about this?

I can sell my dvc20p now and get about $1200; tit for tat same price relative to the TM300.........Buy it??

Great presentation Doc, I really liked that. Yet I disagree about the camera. I have TM300 was seeing that the colours were just not right. Yours has the same thing too, as do the numerous posts on youtube. It simply lacks the cripy colours we are used to from other manufecturers.

Too much of a greenish blueish tint and reds look like violet. No contrast control. I does seem that the problem is hue. It is not so pleasing to watch the footage, so I just use it to capture rather than view

[ForeverMods]

I found a solution, If I set white balance to cloudy I get a reddish warm picture :)

[inthedeepoftheblue]

oh man i rlly like that video..

[newuploader]

Is it me? or are the colors of this camera a litle blue. Special the sky looks a litle strange to me. I am doubting of bying this camera but I see the same color thing in other youtube films made with this camera. Are there more people that seeing the same thing?

Thanks

[RauschMedia]

it's true, i see everything is rather blue too. there are ways to adjust it in camera to may the color warmer, but the default "daylight" must read pretty blue.

this is a great camera for everyday stuff as well as street interviews, and web series. but i think it's a little bit soft on the colors and focus for professional full time use.

[BloodmoonInc]

wow if the price wasent so mutch id rush right out and buy one right now

[sirbaihu]

Did anyone else notice the corpse being dumped at 2:13-2:15?

[BloodmoonInc]

that would be called dirt

[KutWrite]

@sirbaihu That was the Queen Mummy!

[InsomniaGS]

Well, thanks. Sorry to insist but, would you mind making a low light video test? I would be very, very grateful. Thanks again!

[InsomniaGS]

Wow, you're like a god compressing videos, I even favorited it! Anyway, I have two questions and I hope you can answer them. First, how is the camcorder quality affected by low lights? And then, do you think de audio is good? Thanks!

[ChristianPayne]

errr.. thanks.. )

I have not had much of a chance t test the low light but i love the sound..

[lexam55]

dude how much is this?in US$

[Documentally]

hi, i got one in the states.. Great bit of kit.. :)

[CaioVisNog]

@Documentally

Hi man, I've been researching some camcorders to shoot a short for school. Nothing very professional, technicaly speaking. Would you say this camera is good for this kind of work (considering also footage edition, composition, etc)?

[lovemekirby]

cute...

[lexam55]

more video pls....

nice camcoder...

[coltsplayground]

[wizzardsblog]
