Features & Benefits

70x Optical Zoom & Advanced O.I.S This 70x zoom lens has the power you need to take dramatic close-ups or get remarkable shots of even distant subjects. But with long-distance zoom shots, even a tiny bit of hand shake has a huge effect on picture quality. That's where optical image stabilizer comes in. Panasonic's Advanced O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabiliser) shifts a corrective lens as you shoot to help eliminate the effects of hand shake, so you get clear, sharp shots even at high zoom levels. It's an essential feature for getting the most out of this incredible zoom lens. Intelligent Auto Intellignet Scene Selector This function analyzes the shooting situation and automatically switches the camcorder to the Scene mode that will give you optimal results. Face Detection Face Detection automatically senses the ambient lighting and adjusts the exposure accordingly, so faces are bright and easy to see. The focus also prioritizes the faces, and skin tones are smoothed. Faces in the center of the frame serve as the reference for adjustments, but the function can detect up to 15 faces in all.

Easy Uploading to YouTubeTM Step 1 : Shoot YouTube limits videos to 10 minutes. In Web mode the camcorder uses a 10-minute countdown system, so you're assured that the recording won't be too long for YouTube, and you won't have to edit it down after shooting. Step 2: Connect The Upload mode in the VideoCam Suite is automatically activated as soon as the camcorder is connected to the PC. Step 3: Upload To upload, simply choose the image file you want and click the Upload button. Encoding is no longer a hassle, as the software does all the work for you. Auto Power LCD The LCD brightness can be adjusted manually to suit the surroundings. In Auto mode, the LCD brightness is adjusted automatically in 16 smooth steps, depending on the surroundings. In darker rooms it adjusts to a lower brightness, making it easier to frame the shot. Outside, it adjusts to almost twice the brightness for easy viewing even on sunny days. Pure Colour Engine The Pure Colour Engine converts the CCD output signal from a complementary color 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 color reproduction for high-zoomed pictures.
