i was about to get a Panasonic camcorder, but i’m getting the Canon FS300 from best buy. i would have got the FS200 but best buy said they dont make it anymore!!
Im getting a camera for like.. Recording stuff. Skating and blah blah. Does the battery last long? It uses a memory card to right? And would a Fish Eye lense work with it?
@MrJwillrocku Haha… skaters and camcorders go together like bees and honey. I don’t know much about this camcorder, I just try like to try them out at the store.
@clubcar98 I always use the camera’s highest quality mode unless otherwise noted, and I used SDcopy to upload this clip in 16:9 format without re-encoding. See my video “How to edit/upload from SD camcorders.”
I love the salesman guy’s last comment. when asked if there was a better backup battery “Not that I know of”. If your charging me money for this backup battery, you better know. And in return I better know.
@cyberstein12 can you guide me …i bought the same camcoder but it shows black strips on top and bottom when i watch video..i want to sort out this problem…please guide me….cheers

Was this the highest quality mode? And was this clip edited for real 16:9 or dose the camera automatically upload the right size for youtube?
