 ... at standard definition (like TV) resolution, and does so at a wide-screen aspect ratio (16:9 to be precise). The picture quality is good in my opinion, but that probably doesn't mean anything. The x34 zoom is very good for close ups and the quality is the same when zoomed in, although the picture will become increasing shaky as you zoom in. This is a problem for all camcorders though, not just this one. The 30GB hard drive is advertised as providing 7 to 37 hours of video. How long you can record for depends on the ...more
