Summary: Buyer beware
Review: If you purchase this product, I hope you are completely satisfied. It is my opinion that the reliability of Panasonic products has slipped in recent years, and this was confirmed to me when a product I purchased quickly failed. The reason I'm posting this is to warn you that the warranty that accompanies Panasonic products only has value if the company chooses to stand behind it. In my case, they weaseled out of it, leaving me with a total loss and no further recourse. Good luck with your decision.

Review: Mine did. When I could get Customer Service on the phone they couldn't find the unit. I have had to have it repaired three times in 6 months. Panasonic has been of almost no help until I brought my attorney into it.

Review: THIS DIGITAL CAMCORDER, FOR THE PRICE, IS BY FAR THE BEST UNIT IN THE IDUSTRY. IF YOU ARE A VIDEO FILE LIKE MYSELF, YOU WILL REALLY ENJOY THE PV-DV851. LOOK AROUND AT THE 899.99 PRICE RANGE AND NOTHING COMPARES.

Review: This little camera here is perfect for everyday recording it does the job, but if u wanna make movies go for something better.not that the quality isnt great, but at high zoom, picture and stability isnt perfect.otherwise its a good reliable handy cam.I had it for a year and a half and its always done good.
I recommend u get a good battery with it tho, cuz the one that comes with it only last bout an hr.
