Great news, techies: Panasonic has just introduced its newest camera, the AG-AC7PJ. This lightweight, low-cost, professional AVCHD shoulder-mount camcorder is perfect for independent moviemakers on-the-go and on a budget. Weighing under four pounds and retailing for around $1,300, the AG-AC7PJ boasts some great features, including an easy operation touch screen, full HD and SD memory card recording, a wide angle 38.5.8mm lens, Intelligent Zoom, six recording modes, MPEG-4 encoding and an intelligent auto function that can determine shooting conditions and program the camera’s settings to capture the clearest image possible. The AG-AC7PJ is also compatible with Macs and PCs and Final Cut and Adobe editing software.

But that’s not all: Panasonic sells a VW-VBG6 battery that upgrades the battery life from 4.5 hours to more than 11 hours, allowing for maximum shooting time.

The only problem I had it was with some dll files but after I ran a dll search on my PC I found out what the problem was and fixed it. I strongly recommend the camera for an amateur or semi-pro recording.
Comment by NeilKirchoff on 11/29/11 at 10:12 am: I really tested one of these new cameras and I must say it is brilliant as far as quality/price goes. This is one of the cameras I expect a semi-pro to use not a $300 Nikon like all the kids use these days. In my opinion with all the consumerization of technology happening nowadays all the kids that have a video camera think of them being Steven Spielberg.

I’ve searched high and low and couldn’t find anything and I was hoping you can tell me something. I really need it because of my work and a friend has a program like that on his iPhone and he is always taunting me about it.
