CNET Australia takes a trip through the best (and worst) of digital photography over the past five years.

Five years of CNET Australia: Camcorders

Would you pay two thousand smackers for a camcorder that's chunky, heavy and only records in standard definition? Don't laugh, were this 2004 that's exactly what you would be doing, if you were in the market for a top quality camcorder that is.

Reviews

Panasonic SDR-H80

The Panasonic SDR-H80 has the zoom power of a telescope and offers plenty of storage in a compact body, but the video results aren't nearly as thrilling.
JVC Everio GZ-MG77

The small size and massive video storage capacity of the JVC Everio GZ-MG77 make it a tantalising choice, but poor video quality keeps this hard-disk-based camera from being a tape- or DVD-killer.
Canon XL H1

Canon's semipro high-definition XL H1 video camera is a winner for event, reality, ENG and documentary shooters, but its price is high.
Sony DCR-HC90

Though it has some design quirks and performance issues, the compact HC90 produces excellent video in both bright and dim light.
Sony HDR-FX1

For the price, the best HD camera currently available.
Panasonic NV-GS70

This is an attractive prospect if you want a three-chip camcorder, but a similarly-priced single-chip model will probably provide better image definition if you want decent still-image capture as well.
