How does the look of Panasonic HDC-SD700 HD Camcorder with Panasonic VW-VBG260 Battery? Is VBG260 too big and will block my nose when seeing through viewfinder? Here you are ~ picture of Panasonic HDC-SD700 HD Camcorder with Panasonic VW-VBG260 Battery.
My Panasonic HDC-SD700 HD Camcorder came along with 1 Panasonic VW-VBG130 battery. However, it can only record around 1 hour ++ video. A little too short for me. So I target to get Panasonic VW-VBG260 which can record 2 hours ++ video. That’s double performance from Panasonic VW-VBG130 battery. And also double weight from it.

Introduction
I bought Panasonic HDC-SD700 HD Camcorder during the last PIKOM PC Fair. Playing with it since then. However, I faced an issue ~ hard to get Panasonic VW-VBG260 battery at Penang. And the price is not cheap from RM 490 to RM 530. At the end, I got myself a compatible battery at RM 95.50 from eBay. Wow… That’s really cheap for a Panasonic VW-VBG260 battery.
