    Advanced 3MOS System - Improves Sensitivity and Reduces Noise by Half

    To maximize the beauty of Full-HD 1920 X 1080, 50

    progressive recording, Panasonic worked to develop the ideal

    camera system. The result is the advanced 3MOS System,

    which combines the 3MOS Sensor, Leica Dicomar Lens,

    and Crystal Engine PRO. Advances in these three technologies then made it

    possible to improve the sensitivity of the camcorder's sensors and cut noise in

    half*. The results are spectacular. Images shot in bright conditions are even

    more vibrant and detailed. And in dim lighting, you can capture clear, sharp

    images without color loss. See for yourself how Panasonic technology brings

    out the best in Full-HD image quality. *Compared to previous Panasonic models.

    1080/50p Recording (Full-HD 1920 x 1080, 50 Progressive Recording) - Twice the Information of Interlace Recording

    We all want to preserve our treasured memories with images of the highest

    possible quality. And that's exactly what 1080/50p recording (Full-HD 1920 x

    1080, 50 progressive recording) does. Compared to the conventional interlace

    method, 1080/50p recording contains twice the amount of information. This

    greatly increases image density, and makes even the tiniest details clear.

    It smoothly reproduces the images of fast-moving subjects without leaving

    afterimages, making it ideal for shooting both sports scenes and landscapes.

    This is the kind of detailed beauty you can expect with 1080/50p recording. See

    what it can do for your precious memories.

    Two Advanced Technologies Team Up to Take Color Reproduction to a New Level.

    3MOS SensorSuperb color expression from a high-sensitivity sensor.

    The HD 700 Series employs the 3MOS Sensor, with its three-sensor configuration. This provides a resolution of 7.59 million effective motion image pixels (2.53 million x 3). The 3MOS Sensor splits the

    light information captured by the lens into the three primary colors - red, green and blue - and processes each color with its own individual sensor. This reduces light loss compared to the 1MOS sensor, and renders colors, details and gradation all with intricate detail and natural beauty. This superb color reproduction maximizes the inherent quality of Full-HD progressive images. New technology to raise light-gathering efficiency has also improved sensor sensitivity and cut noise in half*. This gives you bright images with minimal noise even in lo w - l i g h t s i t u a t i o n s .

    1080/50p Recording (Full-HD 1920 x 1080, 50 Progressive Recording)High-density, ultra-smooth images.

    The HD 700 Series uses the progressive method to record twice as much image data as the interlace method. Whereas interlacing requires two images to produce a complete picture, the progressive method

    records a single image as a complete picture. Plus, the 50 Progressive Recording of the HD 700 Series produces 50 images per second. This extremely dense image information creates intricate detail and silky smooth motion. Even when subjects move quickly, afterimages are minimized to create more natural images. The progressive method is most effective when shooting detailed designs where moir patterns tend to occur, or when capturing scenes during sports events where the subjects are intensely moving around. Also, the recorded images are displayed clearly even when they are made into still images, so it is possible to preserve stunning photos when clipping them from videos.

    *Progressive scanning refers to the 1080/50p (50 pictures per second) recording format.

    Progressive ScanningReproduces all of the image data in a single picture. Patterns in fabric are crisp and clear, with no color bleeding.

    Crystal Engine PROLeica Dicomar LensIntricate details from Intelligent Resolution Technology.A bright, high-performance lens.

    The new Crystal Engine PRO instantly processes the huge amount of data that goes into Full-HD images, and further enhances Full-HD quality. It produces smooth, high-resolution zoom shots even when the

    range exceeds the limit for optical zooming. Crystal Engine PRO clearly delineates even the tiniest details of your subject, with extremely natural beauty. New noise reduction (NR) technology minimizes noise when recording in low lighting conditions, while Intelligent Resolution Technology ensures sharp, bright, beautifully colored motion images. The HD 60 Series also achieves 1.3 times higher resolution than conventional camcorders, with 2.1 million effective motion image pixels and 1,080 TV lines of resolution*. *ISO 12233 Resolution Chart

    Panasonic HD camcorders use Leica Dicomar lenses, which are renowned for their ability to render sharp images and excellent shading. They also suppress

    ghosting, flare, and distortion at the image edges. Even in strong sunlight, these superb lenses maintain high contrast and resolution. A bright new F1.5-F2.8 lens with a 46mm filter diameter has been created for the HD 700 Series. Efficient light collection allows the new lens to capture bright, clear images even in dim lighting or at high shutter speeds. This high-end lens brings out all the beauty of Full-HD images. *Leica is a registered trademark of Leica Microsystem IR GmbH, and Dicomar is a registered trademark of Leica Camera AG.

    POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer)Suppresses even the slightest hand-shake.

    The popular O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) function that detects hand-shake while shooting and corrects the optical axis to minimize blurring has evolved into the new POWER O.I.S. It features more powerful hand-shake

    detection and a greatly improved corrective capability. When shooting, hand-shake often comes on gradually due to factors like breathing rhythms or the surrounding wind. While this kind of low-frequency hand-shake went undetected with conventional O.I.S., POWER O.I.S. has a variety of new functions that detect even the slightest shake. It suppresses hand-shake with approximately five times* the corrective capability. And POWER O.I.S. also works for zooming, which is highly susceptible to hand-shake, and for both high and low angle shooting, where hand-shake often creeps in. It's an optical system so there's no image degradation, which means that you capture all the natural beauty that the lens has to offer. *Compared to previous O.I.S. systems.

    iA (Intelligent Auto)Makes optimal settings automatically for both still and motion images.

    This powerful function senses the shooting conditions and automatically makes the settings and activates functions that will deliver optimal results. With both

    motion and still images, iA lets you forget about bothersome settings and makes it easy to capture beautiful, well-focused images. *The functions included in iA may not be applied when conditions do not call for them.

    The Face Recognition function recognizes the faces of registered subjects, and automatically optimizes the focus and exposure for those special people. It continues to track

    the subject as he or she moves anywhere within the LCD frame, making it ideal for video shooting. It is extremely useful for capturing someone's face in a group. Names can also be registered and displayed on the LCD while shooting. A total of six people can be registered, and the names of up to three people at a time can be displayed in the shooting frame.

    Touch the LCD screen to indicate the subject, such as a person or an animal, that you want to focus on, and let AF/AE Tracking do the rest. The camera locks on the subject

    and follows it around, keeping it in sharp focus and properly exposed. It keeps tracking even if the subject turns to the side. This advanced function makes it easy to get a continually clear, beautiful shot of the subject in the scene you care most about.

    Everything fits in the frame even when shooting in narrow spaces.

    Even if the subject comes up close to the camera, everything fits in the frame.

    The Intelligent Resolution Technology incorporated in the new Crystal Engine PRO uses edge detection technology to confirm the edges of objects within the image, then emphasizes the edges for optimal clarity. For example, it brings crisp definition to patterns and the outlines of objects like flowers. Conversely, it reduces noise and enhances the natural smoothness of parts without edges, like the sky. The increased sharpness is especially effective for images with delicate details. This highly advanced technology maximizes the beauty of Full-HD images.

    The edges are unclear and the image is blurry.

    35.7mm Wide-Angle Lens* Wind Noise Canceller

    Captures large groups, even when shooting from up close.

    Records the sounds you want, while cutting only wind noise.

    The 35.7mm wide-angle lens on the HD 60 Series fits more people and more of the background into the frame than a conventional 44.1mm lens. This is especially handy when you want to take a group photo in a small

    room. It fits your subjects in even when you shoot from up close, and makes it possible to pick up even small sounds with the mic. It also gives you entirely new ways to enjoy your camcorder, like taking self portraits or capturing sweeping landscapes without losing the sense of scale.

    The technology of the previous Wind Cut function has evolved to form the Wind Noise Canceller. The new function automatically detects and suppresses only wind noise, to give you natural sounds with lifelike ambience. Also, unlike the previous Wind Cut function, which switched to monaural recording, the Wind Noise Canceller enables stereo recording. This maintains natural sounds when shooting outdoors.

    The HD 60 Series features a 25x optical zoom and an Intelligent Zoom function that goes all the way up to 35x. When using Intelligent Zoom,

    Intelligent Resolution Technology lets you shoot at high zoom rates while preserving image sharpness. You get crisp images of highly detailed objects - without the blurry edges. Plus, POWER O.I.S. suppresses even slight hand-shake, which is a must for extreme zooming, because of its high susceptibility to hand-shake.

    Long Recording mode doubles the recording time of usual MPEG-2 recording modes. It uses the new high-compression technology of the H.264/AVC format to compress data to a level that doubles the recording time while maintaining the same image quality as the MPEG-2 format. It's ideal for recording onto small-capacity SD cards. It also increases PC compatibility, and makes it easier to upload videos onto video sharing sites like YouTube.

    The new Enhanced Optical 78x Zoom has been added to the compact body of the easy-to-carry camcorder. By taking maximum advantage of

    the effective CCD area, the camera makes it easy to capture a wide range of dynamic images, from sweeping landscapes with the 33mm wide-angle scope to close-ups of distant subjects with the 78x zoom, without having to worry about image degradation. However, with long-distance zoom shots, even a tiny bit of hand-shake has a huge effect on picture quality. That's where Advanced O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) comes in. It 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.

    The time lapse function uses longer frame intervals than standard shooting. You can use this function to capture shortened or condensed footage of events that actually take place over a much longer time period. For example, time lapse recording is ideal for shooting a flower in the process of blooming, or a long, slow sunset. With time lapse recording, you have an interesting new video technique to explore. *The maximum continuous recording time is 12 hours.

    How to combine motion images that are split onto two types of media as a continuous scene:

    1. Arrange the data that is split onto two types of media on an SD card.If the SD card has sufficient capacity, it's possible to arrange all of the split data as a single continuous scene on the SD card. *HD camcorder only.

    2. Use a DVD burner to create a disc.If the SD card is not big enough to hold all of the split data, use a DVD burner to create a disc with all the moving pictures as a single continuous scene.

    3. Use the included software. You can also use the editing software that is included with the camcorder to join the split data as a continuous scene.
