Grand Prize

Win! The GRAND Prize

The new super-tiny, super-powerful Panasonic SDR-H60 camcorder. It’s a hybrid camcorder that can record your footage to either SD/SDHC cards or to its own built-in hard drive (up to 56 hours of shooting!)

Other cool features: a 50x zoom lens; Panasonic’s Advanced Mega Optical Image Stabilization system, so your shots won’t wobble; and the Anti Shock Shield, which helps protect the hard drive from bumps and drops. The suggested retail price rings in at $550.

In short: Something no budding young filmmaker should be without.
