Solid-State DV Camcorder

melorama writes "The NAB convention passed 2 weeks ago, and I'm surprised nobody has pointed out the really neat Solid State Video Camcorder that was unveiled by Panasonic. It seems a bit kludgy right now (it records onto a series of PCMCIA cards), but it definitely beats the klunky Avid/Ikegami Camcutter (aka Editcam) from several years back, which records onto a self-contained harddisk. This is certainly a blow to Sony, which is working on a camera acquisition system that uses a blue-laser optical disc (read: moving parts) technology."

  1. A WOW REVIEW! by stratjakt · · Score: 4, Funny

    This idiot uses the term "wow product" like two dozen times in this cheezy PR piece.

    "...saw my second wow product of the day"

    "... the Tough-book (retailing at $4000) also has a touch panel screen ... That along makes this a wow product."

    "...the Encore DVD software. It is a wow product"

    "...that about wraps up my Super Wow day at NAB"

    WOW!

    NEATO WALLY!

    That wraps up my super WOW post at slashdot.
