Panasonic has announced a new AVCHD camera set for April called the AG-HMC70.

Looks a lot like an older Panasonic S-VHS camera, but only has three 1/4 CCDs. Uses the higher capacity SD cards (none of them are high enough yet though). Has 12X 38.5mm to 462mm Leica wide-angle zoom lens, one-push auto focus, and integrated Optical Image Stabilization.
Has three recording modes – 6Mbps, 9Mbps or 13Mbps. Using the new 16GB SDHC memory card it can record up to 360 minutes at 6Mbps quality and up to 160 minutes at 13Mbps, the camera’s highest quality mode.
Has a three inch LCD screen and options will include a VW-VBG6 5,800-mAH Battery, VW-W4307H Wide Conversion Lens, and VW-T4314H Tele Conversion Lens.
