Panasonic launches new HD camcorders and 32GB SD card

By Nate Lanxon on 07 January 2008, 7:43am

Above the HDC-SD9 in terms of specifications is the HDC-HS9, another 1080p, 3CCD HD camcorder. But there's an important difference.

The HS9 is a hybrid HD camcorder, using both SD-based storage and a 60GB hard disk. With 32GB SD cards on the horizon (which we'll come to shortly), this memory-hungry monster can record 1080p HD video to almost 100GB of on-board memory, roughly 30 hours of hi-def shooting.

In addition, video recorded to SD can be copied over to the hard drive, or vice versa, with just a push of a button.

Like its little brother the SD9, the HS9 boasts face recognition, 5.1 surround sound and high-speed burst shooting. It'll also be on sale in March for around $1,100 (£550).
