    Panasonic PV-GS180 Camcorder Features Include:

  • 3CCD Camera System: Most professional broadcasting cameras use the 3CCD system. In a 1CCD system, all of the incoming light information is processed by the same CCD. The more advanced 3CCD system uses three distinct CCDs for processing, so there is absolutely no light loss. You can see the results in beautifully rendered images with vivid colour, fine detail, and rich gradation.
  • 1.7 sec. Quick Start: This Quick Start mode* helps shoot videos on the spur of the moment. This mode lets you shoot those not-to-be-missed scenes just 1.7 sec from the time the power is turned on.
  • Crystal Engine: The Crystal Engine is a special image processing circuit for 3CCD camera systems. It processes the R, G and B signals from the three CCDs individually, so it gives both motion and still pictures exceptional quality.
  • 2.3 Megapixel Still Image Recording: Both motion and still pictures are superb. Photos are so vivid and real, you can enjoy them as high-quality prints.
  • 10x optical zoom and 700x digital zoom
  • Color Viewfinder
  • DV output (firewire) for easy digital connection to compatible PCs
  • SD Memory Card slot and high-speed USB 2.0 for high quality full-motion video transfer.
