Panasonic's SDR-H80 / HDC-TM300 camcorders
The Panasonic SDR-H80 also boasts Panasonic’s O.I.S (Image Stabilizer) with 70x optical zoom, a face recognition software, and YouTube Video mode. Weighing at only 300grams, this video recorder adopts a 60GB HDD, and a SDHC port so you can easily record video on both the HDD or SD Card and record up to from 14 to 54 hours of video on its 60GB HDD (XP to LP mode) or 1 hour 40 minutes in XP Mode on a 8GB SD Card.
The entirely more riveting HDC-TM300 comes with a 9.15-megapixel sensor to capture Full HD footage, and the internal 32GB hard drive (coupled with the SD / SDHC slot) should give you plenty of room. This one captures in MPEG-4 AVC / H.264, and reportedly it even supports 5.1-channel audio recording.

The SDR-H80 records video clips in MPEG-2 format. In addition to internal hard drive, Panasonic’s SDR-H80 supports also SD and SDHC memory cards. It's cool, even though it's likely a drive-by-wire type of control--not a good feel compared to regular lens control.
