Review: Genius HD520
TechRadar: Computing reviews —
The silver body of the HD520 boasts 'Perfect HD' – a claim that seems certain to be compromised by its microscopic F3.2 pinhole camera lens. You can snap stills at a mighty 11MP, select an electronic image stabiliser (the optical version's poorer cousin), and even use manual equivalents for the exposure and white balance, along with the auto staples. It comes with a negligible 32MB built-in memory that you will need to expand up to an extra 8GB with an SD card. A few minor features, such as a grainy 5x digital zoom, face and motion detection and voice recording are also present. It lets you listen to music, record audio, read e-books, and watch portable media, ...
Review: Panasonic HDC-SD10
TechRadar: Computing reviews —
... might wonder why you didn't wait to buy one... Or whether you can afford to upgrade. Because the HDC-SD10 is guaranteed to turn heads. Like an Apache helicopter landing in a Tesco car park; or that moment when Susan Boyle first opened her mouth to sing on Britain's Got Talent. The HDC-SD10 is technically the 'little brother' to the Panasonic HDC-TM10. The main difference (bar a big splash of glossy black on the hinged LCD) is the lack of a dual storage system.

Panasonic HDC-TM10
DarkVision Hardware Articles and Review from around the web —
While it's not the 'lightest camcorder in the world', the new Panasonic HDC-TM10 does boast to be 'the world's lightest Full HD AVCHD camcorder'. Weighing only 280g, it shares this enviable accolade with its little brother, the equally dinky HDC-SD10. Link: TechRadar
Review: Flip MinoHD
TechRadar: Computing reviews —
The MinoHD is similar in form to its predecessor, the Flip Mino, but it records at a resolution of 1280 x 720 instead of VGA 640 x 480. To cope with this, there's 4GB of storage space, which equates to an hour of recording time. In terms of performance, the MinoHD pleased rather than blew us away. Its one-touch operation is foolproof, but the 1.5in LCD screen is far too small. Performance in good lighting conditions is pretty decent and although there's no image stabilisation, the footage is serviceable. However, videos shot in low lighting conditions were surprisingly good. In this respect, the MinoHD compares favourably to its rivals. You'll find some sample ...

Review: Sony HDR-TG7
TechRadar: Computing reviews —
Just like its forerunner, the TG3, Sony's stylish new Full HD shooter is a camcorder with the 'wow' factor. The Sony HDR-TG7 takes the pistol-grip camcorder design and refines it so that you get a trim, slim, easy-to-use model – with an intriguing twist being added by a built-in GPS receiver. To clear up any confusion right from the start, this is also the Sony HDR-TG5 as that's what this model is called over in the United States. At the moment Sony is the only major manufacturer to jump on the GPS-camcorder bandwagon. It's a costly investment for consumers too: the TG7 is available for around £700, while Sony's other GPS shooter, the XR520, can cost over £1,000, whether ...
