This is the first I have ever seen this.

I was pondering selling my sdr-s10 by panasonic, bought two years ago.
I think my search changed my mind.

from amazons 500 bucks
to 220 for a used one, I almost crapped... it has been out since september of 2007. I paid like 200 brand new in retail box.

simply 10mbit mpeg2, regular tv size, 16:9 or 4:3..
I think it may be the modern version of the 8mm craze or tapes of yesterday...except it is anamorphic and digital.

this thing records so fast, I had to wait for the worlds fastest memory card to gain its full function.

tough as a rock, captures lightning at 10mbit.
I have dropped it on the rug etc, spilled antifreeze on the outside (a few drops, but still, that used to be a heart attack in just thought)

I bought it for military standards of "shockproof"...and it kept working full speed at zero F, inside a tractor trailer no less.

my prescott processes it easily, anamorphic.

anybody else buy an electronic that went up in value? (at retail, no special business people buy prices)

I could guess my hunch about HD being a circus act is holding true.. when there is dust/smoke or debris, oh it better be in the video.. at ntsc clearly so...
