I picked this camera up today. I haven't opened it yet. I asked for suggestions a few weeks ago and decided on this one.

One of the main features I needed was digital pass-thru.....but i'm looking it up now and i can't seem to find anything on that. does anyone OWN this camera that can confirm whether it does or does not have that feature?

thanks

I just looked at the Panasonic website and it appears you don't have an analog video in, only out. But there is an S-video in so if you can feed the analog video into the s-video connector you should be able to do a digital convert to firewire.
I have a GS70 which was the first in the series of Panasonic small 3ccd cameras and it does have a full complement of connections and can do digital passthru. Sounds like panasonic removed some connectors to hit a pricepoint.

the GS 120 has digital pass through. Should be somewhere in the documentation. Har to believe they would omit such an important feature.
