Panasonic Announced AG-HMC80P Shoulder Mount Camcorder
Unfortunately, scaled down size also requires scaling down features and adjustment capabilities. However, if you’ve had a hankering’ for some heft lately, and a longing for all sorts of buttons, dials and

ports protruding from various parts of your camera, then Panasonic’s AG-HMC80P full bodied, professional class, shoulder-mount camcorder may be just be the cure for what ails you.
Unboxed the HMC80P Looks Like everything you would expect of a shoulder-mount broadcast style camera. The only real cause for pause is the fact that the body feels very well plastic; almost like a toy. Not that plastic is bad, of course. Most things have a certain amount of plastic in them these days and plastic can be very durable, but it has a bit more of a toy-like feel than one would expect from a professional class camcorder. Also, somewhat misleading is the monstrous lens hood and cover hiding a much smaller diameter lens than expected.
Once past those little details though you’ll soon find there is nothing toy-like about it. Behind the lens hood is the focus/zoom wheel. This works in conjunction with a switch located on the left side of the lens barrel that lets you toggle the wheel’s functions between focus and zoom. This Focus-Zoom/Iris switch works along with an Iris wheel, or dial, also located on the lens. The Iris wheel has a push button feature allowing you to switch between manual and auto Iris. The lens barrel is home to Focus Assist, Focus,

White Balance and three user assignable buttons as well.
A Mode button toggles the camera back and forth between record and playback modes while a switch beneath it selects between either the AVCHD or DV recording formats. There are Audio Level dials and switches for selecting between auto or manual audio functions and front or rear channel selection. A switch for selecting Auto or Manual settings and a pair of buttons for turning on or off and resetting counter and time code displays, as well as both an HDMI and USB 2.0 port, round out the goodies on the left side of the camera body.
Despite the aforementioned plasticky construction there’s a lot to like about this camera. High quality image capture to SD/SDHC media cards, vast manual adjustment capabilities and its size, to name a few. Greater size allows engineers a place to put all those buttons, switches and dials that professionals and prosumers love so well. More real estate means pro features like XLR connectors, so you can capture professional quality audio along with those pristine images. Increased size also means increased weight

, which helps immensely when going for those stable handheld shots.
