The Sony HDR-FX1000 is a new version of HDR-FX1. This handheld camcorder contains enough manual controls and features. However, if you’re a professional videographer, you’ll likely be disappointed with its lack of precise controls and design. It’s not a shoulder-mount, and it doesn’t have the stability and comfort of a larger body.

Sony designed the HDR-FX7 for aspiring pros and beginners as an entry-level production camcorder. This camcorder is capable of recording impressive high definition videos and still images with ease.

The Panasonic AG-DVX100BP is the first camcorder to offer a 24 frames-per-second feature. It’s the first consumer camcorder to produce a film look. This is a very good B roll cam or independent film cam. People might think that you shoot the videos using a film camera.
