Panasonic HDC-HS9EB-S Full HD Camcorder with 60GB Hard Disc Drive and SD Card slot (10x Variable Speed Zoom)

High Quality Lens for HD Movies
The lens is a central and vital part of the camera, with the ability to greatly infl uence image quality. Lens quality is even more important than ever before when doing High Defi nition recording. Therefore, the Leica Dicomar lens, developed specifi cally for Full HD camcorder and featuring original optical technology from Leica, is an advanced lens that captures clear, crisp and finely nuanced pictures with outstanding detail and contrast.

Full HD 1920 x 1080 25p Progressive Images
Why is the image quality so much better? Panasonic Full HD camcorder record horizontal pixels at an HD resolution of up to 1.920 pixels, which
results in a total of around 2.070.000 pixels. Panasonic Full HD camcorder use progressive scanning which provides twice as much data per
picture as conventional interlace scanning and captures clear, vibrant images with intricate detail.

Face Detection
Ordinary TV broadcasts and DVD discs provide SD images with 576 x 640 pixels or 576 x 720 pixels. Today‘s newest HDTVs, on the other hand, can display images with 1080 x 1920 pixels. HDTVs require high-quality image sources suitable for their large screens. If the optimization process for high-quality images is inadequate, the picture can become blurry or grainy. DIGA‘s original i/p conversion and up-conversion functions solve this problem. These functions convert SD signals from DVD discs or DIGA‘s own hard disc drive into 1080p signals that provide high-resolution images. The conversion process boosts the amount of image information by about 5 times, so pictures are clear and beautiful.

Advanced Optical Image Stabiliser
Panasonic‘s Advanced O.I.S. system corrects the effects of hand-shake 4.000x/
second, balancing out jittery movements before light enters the CCDs. This
compensation functionality is effective for both moving and still pictures.
The technology behind is very effective – the Advanced O.I.S. system uses
gyrosensors to detect movement caused by hand-shake and adjusts the lens
inside to compensate it. As this system is an optical one image quality will not
be compromised. Clear, beautiful moving pictures on a large Flat Screen TV - Image quality is in no way reduced with the Advanced O.I.S. / O.I.S. lens
compensation. The lens moves up-down or left-right, bending the incoming
light in order to correct the effects of hand-shake.

3CCD Camera System
Superb colour reproduction – faithful, natural colours with delicate nuances.
Record moving pictures with realistic and natural colours. Capture facial
expressions and skin tones exactly as they appear in real life. Panasonic’s
advanced 3CCD camera system offers beautiful colours, precise details and
distinct gradation - it draws out the full potential of Full HD image quality just as
professional broadcasting cameras do.
