Customer Review: Super Boy Video Camera
Summary: 5 Stars

My dad owned a video camera kind of like this but the thing that you put your eye to wasn't circular. But everything else was cool. Anyways, my dad gave me the video camera because it was about 13 years old and he had bought a new VHS-C video camera. He used to have a video camera that you watch the videos on DVD but then got the other one I was mentioning because one time when we were in Hawaii eating at a restaurant, we got ripped off by some guys but we didn't know. When we went back in the car so we can drive to our destination, we first didn't know that we were missing anything until we got to our destination. My dad was the one who found out we got ripped off from gangsta boys. We didn't do anything but just let it go. I am going back to talking about the video camera my dad gave me. One thing I like about this video camera is that when your done and finished with the whole tape, you don't have to finalize it like you have to do for the video camera that you watch your videos on DVD. That is one thing my dad hated about the DVD video camera. The only thing he liked about it was that it was so clear on the screen. Anyways, when it was summer 2006 after school ended, I took this video camera with me to take to my granparent's house to video tape myself playing baseball. I used a pro training stick which was the bat and batted plastic balls. I caught myself on video lots of times hitting home runs. Pretty good playa boy. How the way i'll catch myself on video hitting home runs is that i'll put this video camera on something outside like the bench or something else. For pitching, I'll put the video camera on our slide at our grandparent's house to tape my grandfather and I. I caught myself throwing lots of fast strikes. Thanks Panasonic and dad!

Description of Panasonic PV-L559 Palmcorder Camcorder

The Panasonic PV-L559 offers a powerful zoom and a versatile LCD screen in a compact, affordable package. It's a great choice for those who want advanced features but also need the flexibility of the VHS-C format.

In our tests, the video from the Panasonic PV-L559 was clear and colorful, although due to the nature of the VHS-C format, it wasn't as bright or sharp as Hi8 or digital video. VHS-C has a major advantage when it comes to playback--it uses normal VHS tape, so you can play it in any VCR (using the included adapter).

The Panasonic PV-L559 offers a 150x digital zoom and advanced recording features, such as image stabilization. It includes a fade feature for transitioning between scenes, with seven different effects in eight different colors. It comes with a light for shooting in dim conditions--you can set the light to remain on, off, or to switch on automatically when needed. The three-inch, color LCD screen swivels a full 180 degrees, so you can record from different angles or include yourself in the video. You can adjust the brightness of the screen as well. The Panasonic PV-L559 offers programmed recording, which gives you a window of 24 hours to set a start time and recording length before recording begins. This camcorder also has a security mode, which triggers recording when it senses motion.
