Best Professional Camcorder

Panasonic AG-HMC40
$2,295 - Panasonic Electronics for all of your home, business, or industrial needs
The Panasonic AG-HMC40 is a tremendous value for a can-do camcorder. It's inexpensive for a professional camcorder, to the point where some news directors might even stock up on them to be used as expendable news gathering camcorders. It's also expandable; while the AG-HMC40 ships with only an 1/8" mic input, you can add a Panasonic XLR mic adaptor for $300. We also like that it uses inexpensive, standardized media.

In my opinion, the HMC40 packs far more bang for the buck than any other camera out there right now. Panasonic deserves a lot of credit.
