Comments:
You'd think with so many letters and numbers and possible combinations thereof - not to mention the probable audacious sneak looks at their rival's marketing plans - Panasonic (or Sony) would have picked a more distant model number from their competitor.
Review Verdict: The SDR-S100 is an enigma. It has all the major technically 'good bits' that a top-of-the-range camcorder should have - external mic access besides - but its reliance on an SD card and MPEG2 lets it down
