Anti-Shock Shield: Protects recorded video data from damage due to jolts and impact

One-touch copying onto a DVD

Connect the camera to a USB port on your PC, and you can copy your video data onto a 12-cm DVD disc by pressing a single button. You don't have to do anything to the PC. Likewise, connect the camera to a DVD writer and pressing one button is all it takes to copy data to a DVD disc.
 



Power LCD Plus
You can set the LCD to any of five brightness levels for optimal viewing in a variety of lighting conditions. When shooting outdoors on a sunny day, make the LCD brighter. When shooting indoors, lower it. This not only makes the LCD easier to see, it's also easier on your eyes.  




XP / SP / LP Mode
This unit records in VBR. VBR is an abbreviation for Variable Bit Rate. VBR recording automatically varies the bit rate (amount of data in a fixed time) depending on the subject being recorded. This means if a subject with sharp movements is recorded, the recording time is reduced.    


• These figures vary depending on pictures being recording.
* Usable capacity will be less. 1GB means 1,000,000,000 bytes.



One-Touch Navigation & Joystick Control
The joystick makes the camera much easier to use, letting you control all basic operations with one hand. As you shoot, just watch the image in the monitor and follow the instruction guide. You can handle a number of operations quickly and easily, without even taking your eye off the subject.   Operation Icon Examples



Help Mode
Not sure what a certain icon means? Just switch on the Help mode and select the icon. It's explained for you on the LCD monitor. This makes it easier to learn the icons, and you spend less time reading the operating manual.

Quick Search & Access with Disk Navigator
Unlike videotape, you don't need to rewind or fast-forward to search for specific scenes. The video camera LCD screen displays a list of the recorded scenes for quick and easy searching.    



Edit with Disk Navigator
You can do some polished editing using just the camera itself. For example, you can delete scenes right on the spot or change the scene sequence to create your own scenarios.    

Playlist Edit
It's easy to change the sequence of the scenes you've recorded, and then play them back.

Easy Deleting
This function makes it easy to delete the scenes you don't want and to save the ones you do. You can also split up motion pictures and delete only parts of them.



Easy ON / OFF
Easy On / Off reduces the time required for operating the camera. When you open the LCD, the power turns on. Shut it and the power turns off.

Anti Ground Shooting
The O.I.S. linear motor system can detect when the camera is in an unusual shooting position - such as when you've inadvertently left it on in recording mode. In these cases, the camera automatically stops recording, saving both battery power and disc space.

*Set to OFF when shipped from the factory. To turn Anti Ground Shooting ON, the setting must be made on the menu screen.

Built-in LED Light
When illumination is insufficient, turn on the built-in LED video light to take crisp, colourful movies. The LED (light emitting diode) has low power consumption, long service life, and the safety of a low operating temperature.    



Colour Night View
Colour Night View for shooting in dim light.

Colour Night View gives you smoothly flowing pictures even in dark places, where it's normally difficult to capture good shots.
