Panasonic SV-AV50S 2MP MPEG-4 Camcorder w/2.5x Digital Zoom

I regret buying this camera because I cannot view the videos I shot. If you buy a Sony digital camera it shoots video in MPEG4 format and that can be viewed by several programs such as Real Player, Windows Movie Maker, QuickTime, etc. This Panasonic camcorder claims to shoot MPEG, but it does not.





The video files are something called ASF and I cannot find a program to view the videos or to convert them to real MPEGS. Going to the Panasonic site is a complete waste of time because they expect you to have a serial number just to download the program to view the videos in their non standard format.





Save yourself the hassle, and get a Sony that shoots video in a standard format that is read by many programs.Panasonic SV-AV50S 2MP MPEG-4 Camcorder w/2.5x Digital Zoom
