Featuring an Optical Image Stabiliser, 32x Optical Zoom, Pure Colour Engine and more! This easy to use Panasonic Mini DV Camcorder will allow you to record motion video and take photos with a simple flip of a switch.

FEATURES:

O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabiliser)
Panasonic's O.I.S. minimises the handshake that can be such a problem with handheld shots. Because Panasonic's system is optical, there is no image quality degradation. When you're shooting a still picture, the MEGA O.I.S. system automatically activates, doubling the corrective power. With O.I.S. and MEGA O.I.S., the camcorder is equipped for clear, beautiful shooting of both motion and still pictures.

32x Optical Zoom
This 32x zoom can fill the screen with even a distant subject. Not only is this lens the powerful zoom offered in a home-use digital camcorder, but it also features low distortion. And because it's optical, there is no quality loss - you get the images in all their natural beauty.

Pure Colour Engine
The Pure Colour Engine converts the CCD output signal from a complementary colour signal into an RGB signal at an early stage and extracts the low-frequency luminance component from the RGB signal. This innovative engine also achieves truly superb colour reproduction for high-zoomed pictures.

High-Picture-Quality Wide 2.7" LCD
This model offers the High-Picture-Quality Wide Mode, which produces images that make for beautiful, dramatic viewing on a wide-screen TV. The image is processed on 16:9 area of the CCD. Because the image decoded has the same proportions as your wide-screen TV, there is virtually no picture quality degradation. You get beautiful images and all the excitement and dynamism on either a wide 16:9 screen TV or a conventional 4:3 TV. This model also features a wide 2.7-inch LCD, making it easier to frame shots when you're shooting in 16:9 mode. You can enjoy shooting wide, and viewing wide.

Simultaneous Motion Video and Still Picture Recording
You can snap off a still picture (VGA) while continuing to record motion pictures. You don't even have to change recording modes. The motion pictures are recorded onto tape, the still is recorded onto the SD Memory Card.
