At first glance, the Panasonic HC-W570 is a relatively low-end camcorder, but appearances can be deceiving. Although the core specifications are entry-level, the camera allies them with a number of features from higher-end models.

nice steady zoom easy to handle
as new to this video cam found I kept pushing photo take button , was on top instead of take video button at side
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
I like the symbol which lets you know you are videoing straight or not so you can adjust the way you hold it.
sound quality low of you are not very close to the subject eg wedding speeches if not near the top table.

Consumer review (reevoo.com)
Very light and small, Also you can take jpg pics by just pressing the photo button while in the playback mode.
There is now eye viewfinder, so in bright light which is quiet a bit of the time you can not see anything to record on the screen.
