For Pros, not for Gadget-Seekers

We just received an AG-HVX200 and I tell you, it's got more menus than a powerhouse Chinese restaurant.

The HVX200 inherits the variable frame rate capability of Panasonic’s popular, shoulder-mount AJ-HDC27 VariCam® HD Cinema camcorder. The HVX200 can capture fast or slow action in 720p at various frame rates — the first time this function is available in a hand-held camera. For exceptional image quality and flexible shooting, the AG-HVX200 elegantly combines native progressive 16:9 1/3� 3-CCDs and a wide-angle, 13X Leica Dicomar HD lens (with optical image stabilization and a super-smooth, cam-driven manual zoom) to cover a wide range from 4.2mm to 55mm (35mm equivalent: 32.5mm to 423mm).

I tested JVC's ProHD GY-HD100U and Cannon's XL H1 HD camcorders. The Panasonic HVX200 beat them hands down in comparable picture quality, functionality and overall camera durability design.
