Hi gang,
Recently I've been looking at camcorders. I have looked at a few Sony digital cameras but I do not fusy the small lens on those models. What camcorder that did catch my eye was the Panasonic PVGS 250 3CCD camcorder. It doesn't sound like a bad camera for the price. Even though its optical zoom (10x) is lower than most newer digital camcorders out there today, it does have some nice features. I had a look at it in the store today and I was impressed on the true vivid colour it displays. It even has a manual focus ring, and takes 3.1 megapixel still photos. It uses a Leica Dicomar lens, which isn't as small as some digital camcorders have. Sounds like a nice compact camera with quite a few features for the price.
I was wondering if anyone uses this type of camcorder, and what they think about it for storm chasing. I was thinking of getting this one in several weeks, after I've done a little saving and some research.
