Thank you for this review! I have had a Panasonic HDC-HS80 for at least 10 years or so, absolutely LOVE it! Has an 80gb hard drive in it, pl;us the SD card slot. But it DIED on me! It will not power up, even with 2 fully charged batteries, it is DEAD! So I lose whatever videos are on that hd, but life goes on! I switched over to using an SD card a while back, was having problems connecting the camera to the computer to access the hd files, so all recent stuff is on that card. This HC-V180 seems perfect for me, I don't need that hd, have my 64 gb sdxc card. And the specs on this HC-V180, for $200, are far better than those of my other camera, in terms of still pic resolution (not that I use it), zoom length, those basic video parameters. I think I will pick up one of these HC-V180's to replace my old camera, thanks for your review! :)

this was epic, thank you especially for the outdoor field tests. keep having fun bro

Really good review. And i must say i DO like your style & attire. You remind me a LOT of Kyle MacLachlan in "Blue Velvet" for some reason.

Old vid, not a bad review. But you missed out the other important settings, If you haven't already found them. For those who haven't, If you press the iA icon in the top left corner. It takes you into the creative mode. with 5 more icon menus. Very similar to the Panasonic Lumix TZ compact cameras. The screen shows 6 icons. The iA. icon. There's an iA+, icon. In this mode you can adjust different parameters, such as the WB, exposure com. ect. 3rd Icon looks like painters palette. In that mode, you have, a miniature effect, 8mm movie effect, The old Silent movie effect and time lapse. 4th icon is the scene mode, with the usual Scene types, There are 11, including low light. 5th icon, Manual mode. This you gives full control of the Focus, WB, here you have the usual WB settings including a custom WB. You have full control of the Shutter Speed. and the Iris (Aperture) 6th Icon is a the loop mode..

Thanks for the menu tips!

I normally hate youtube ads, so I was going to rant when the second lot came on, but it actually showed a really good one. I've no idea what they were actually advertising, but the advert was funny and had an entertaining song :).

Just bought this camera, excited for what it can do. For talking head vids, my plan is to use a lavalier mic with the recorder app on my phone and use that audio track instead.

amazing review and vibe man, new subscriber here, regards from Spain!

Thank you I was looking for a test in low light

Thank you so much for sharing! Super camera test video creation congratulations! Good day! 👍🍀🇭🇺🌞☝️

I really liked this dude

I appreciate SO MUCH your review and information! It has been really helpful! A question I must ask is: would you recommend this camera for live band recordings?

Hi, your video introducing the cam is very nice, I just bought one of these. Is your cam having noise issues sounds like the fan or something, it has some noise coming out from the cam while is in recording mode?

Cool vid, thank you.

I have 2 questions about the camera: 1) Is it possible to set a fixed exposure time or aperture so that the brightness in the shot does not always jump back and forth when the lighting conditions change? 2) Is it possible to set the focus manually to a certain distance without it jumping back and forth when a new object comes into the picture?

ty for sharing. I need to buy a camera for flmig to a party. not some expensive and the video is usefull.

Which JVC camcorder has exceptionally good image stabilisation?

Maximum SDHC Card size?? Wich Gigabytes max?

Gut gut

My Panasonic 875 does very well in low-light

I want buying this camera but Flipkart and Amazon in out of stock

im looking for good audio quality with this camcorder, is there anything you would reccomend for good audio quality with 6 people ( very low budget )

Nice

Do you have another video showing how to upload from that camera onto an iMac?

Can you connect an external mic into this camera ? I’m looking for that feature, that’s very important for me as I do podcast videos . Please let me know thanks .

Is the focusing noise a normal thing for this camera ? I just got mine and I was worried that it was damaged. I’m also worried about a rattle sound in side the camera when I first picked it up or when the camera is off. Is all this normal ?

Just wondering, what sort of tripods do you use?

Price bhai or kaha se liye

How good is the audio on the Panasonic HC-V180K? Does the audio pick up a lot of detail from sound? Is it good to make ASMR videos?

quality is terrible

Looks like the video is straight outta 2005

does it record 60 fps ?

🤣🤣🤣
