You can't currently beat these features at this price-point. This Panasonic SDR-S26 camcorder represents my best effort to meet my needs at a price point I can afford. I shoot birding videos and was not happy with my tape/mini-dvd camcorders for several reasons. This 70x optical zoom is terrific on a good tripod. It makes all the difference when your subject is not close. This camcorder does have good stabilization, and facial recognition tracking, but you must have a tripod for best results with any zoom camera...especially one that offers 70x optical zoom. You won't find high optical zoom, HD video, and low price.

See my 7 minute video on You Tube. Do a search for "2009 Pileated Woodpecker Nest". Note the excellent sound. I specifically chose the SD card version of this camcorder over the hard disk choices to avoid mechanical noise interfering with the sound. You must spend big bucks to get an external microphone option and a good external microphone so that you can get away from the internal noises caused by internal hard drives, mini-DVD, and tape drives. This camcorder also offers manual focus assistance, a must-have when your auto-focus can't give you correct focus because other people, objects, or tree branches and leaves surround your true target.

The prices are good and FREE Shipping.
Hope you like it. Good Luck!
