If you are looking for a camcorder that will record in HD and SD formats while correcting for shaking hands, take a look at the Panasonic AG HPX170 Camcorder. This hand-held and ultra-mobile P2 HD camera features full 4:2:2 independent frame production and quality HD and solid-state recording. When you have a lot of background distractions, this camera's enhanced sensor will give you lower noise levels while it increases the camera's ability to shoot quality video in low-light situations. The HPX170 camcorder does not include a tape drive, but makes up for that by being more lightweight and durable. The HPX170 comes with a 75mm lens with improved wide-angle capability. It has a vector scope, a waveform monitor, an HD-SDI output, a six-pin locking firewire port, and three focus-assist modes. The HPX170 also has high-end features such as Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS), which allows for better control over highlights and shadows when on the move.
