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! :)

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..

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 :).

@stevecoatesdotnet2 жыл бұрын
@@TheCRTProductions It was for a company called SoWork. It was not the slightest bit obvious from the ad what they actually do, but a google search suggests its something to do with "remote working". Still, the ad was fun. The ad in the third ad break was something to do with a women being asked to take her clothes off. Can't remember who that was advertising.

There are better options for that sort of thing, this one’s main focus is long zooming. This would be acceptable for that though

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?

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?
@TheCRTProductions8 ай бұрын
I don't own this anymore but from what I remember there are no manual controls for this. There MIGHT have been manual focus, but definitely not aperture. If you need those options I would look into older model prosumer camcorders from Canon or JVC as this is just a 1080p model.

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 ?

That doesnt sound normal to me, this made almost no noise on its own. I would def. see about getting a replacement for that.

This one or basically any other... because you’d probably want to record audio separately with a mic connected to your computer or something. Otherwise you would need one with an external mic input like the JVC GZ-EX 515
