 Broke 3 months after warranty was up! October 20, 2003

I finally have a place to discuss my terrible dislike of this camcorder and service from Panasonic. We bought this camera 3 years ago and it never worked right from the start. One of the reasons we bought it was for the built in digital camera. Well my 2 year old son could draw a picture better than the quality it produces. The interface to my computer to upload the camera never worked right and Panasonic was never able to properly troubleshoot the issue. Well my warranty ran out about 3 months ago (had 3 year warranty) and wouldn't you know that it stopped working. Never dropped, hit or nothing and the day of my son's 2nd bday, I went to put tape in and the thing kept humming and spinning the tape but not recording. Not worth having fixed as I heard terrible things about Panasonic customer service, so I am going to buy a new one now!

THIS CAMCORDER REPLACES MY SHOLDER HELD FULL SIZED VHS CAMERA OF 1989 VINTAGE. QUALITY OF VHS TAPED PRODUCT IS OK BUT NOT NEARLY AS GOOD AS DIGITAL CAMCORDERS OTHERS IN MY FAMILY OWN. LOTS OF FEATURES, NICE, BUT NEED TO HAVE A GOOD MEMORY ON WHERE TO FIND ALL THE BUTTONS WHEN SHOOTING. STILL SHOTS ARE NOT REALLY WORTH KEEPING AND SHOULD NOT BE A FEATURE WHICH LEADS TO BUYING THIS CAMERA. NEWER VERSION OF THIS MODEL IS THE PV-L751 WHICH SEEMS TO BE THE SAME CAMERA IN ALL RESPECTS. PANASONIC HAS NOT RELEASED UPDATED DRIVERS FOR WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEM ME OR XP AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FORCAST A RELEASE DATE IF THEY ARE EVER GOING TO WRITE A NEW PROGRAM. MY CAMERA HAD A DEFECTIVE LCD VIEWER AND HAD TO BE SHIPPED BACK TO ELGIN IL. YOUR COST TO SHIP, THEY PAY RETURN POSTAGE. SERVICE WAS PRETTY GOOD, ABOUT 8 DAY TURN AROUND AND THE FIX WAS MADE.

Actually this review was prompted by the need for software. I have used model 300 x digital PV-L750D AND IT IS GREAT. I HAVE USED IT FOR PHOTOS AND VIDO. HAVE HAD FRIENDS REALLY THINK IT IS GREAT. I HAVE SUGGESTED THAT THEY GET ONE. AS WELL WE HAVE HAD PANASONIC VCR THAT LASTED WELL OVER 18 YRS (I THINK THAT IS CORRECT) WE HAD PURCAHSED OTHERS ADTER YOUR VCR AND THEY QUIT WORKING WHILE THE PANASONIC KEPT ON WORKING. I USED THIS WAY TO COMMUNITE WITH YOU SINCE I REALLY NEEDED THE SOFTWARE FOR THEPV-L750D SO I CAN DOWN LOAD THE SHOTS FROM VCR CAMERA TO COMPUTER. COULD SOMEONE E MAIL ME TH SOFTWARE OR CONTACT ME. I NEED IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE IF YO COULD E MAIL WOULD BE GREAT. JUST A FUTHER NOTE WHAT I SAID ABOVE IS NOT JUST TO SOFTEN YOU UP TO GET THE SOFTWARE. I REALLY THINK YOUR VCR'S AND THE VHC-S ARE GREAT PRODUCTS.

I wrote an earlier review of this camera and wanted to give an update on something.I thought this was a great camera, but the only problem is the mini-VHS format only gives you 30 minutes of recording time. I was in a Circuit City store several weeks ago, and I found you can now get 40 minute tapes. This isn't too bad, and I like the VHS-C format because you can just plop the tape into the adaptor and play it into your existing VCR. The 8mm and super 8 mm cameras require you either purchase an expensive 8 mm player or else cable the camera to your VCR. This is no big deal, except that I like to keep my camera in the trunk of my car in case I see something worth filming, and this way I don't have to carry it back and forth between the house and the car just to see the latest piece of footage.
Great Camera for a great price March 1, 2001

This camera has everything you ever wanted on for this price. Built in Digital still camera with 640 x 480 resolution, 300x digital and 36x zoom, lots of efects, very easy to use.Every camera has ups an downs, the ups on the PVL-750 are: A lot of stuff in it, VHS-C format (you can view your recordings in your VCR)Digital still camera (not a lot of pixels, but it's ok for a first digital cam)Big LCD panel (4") The kit includes everything except the tripod, case and tape converter. The downs on the PVL-750: Everything you want that it dosen't has. My camera is 1 year old, and it's worknig great, i take it everywere (beach, picnic, race track, birthdays, Xmas, etc.) i have taken more than 500 pictures and have made 3 albums. The pictures don't look like a 28 or 35mm camera but with a editing program like corel or photoshop you can make them look ok. I bougth this camera because i wanted to make home movies, take pictures of my 6 month old daugther, i really didn't needed a sofisticated camera or a 8mm or hi8 format, i just wanted something to have fun, of course, i wanted also quality and low price. With this cam you can view your movies on your vhs (if you have the converter) and still be recording your camera at the same time, with 8mm or hi8 you can't do it (not with the proper equipment) with the PVL-750 all you need is and extra tape and the converter, and your on you way. Remenber if you want a camera with a lot in it, but want a affordable price this is the one. Take my word on it. Check all the other cameras out there first, i know you'll be buying the PVL-750. Good luck and take care you all. P.S. ANDYBOY, if your camera was defective why didn't you return it, and why you bougth it if you knew all the features in it.
