Capture even complex motion with precision
MPEG2 Engine
Panasonic's MPEG2 engine is a wide-range,
high-precision engine that produces smooth, beautiful moving pictures.
Because it precisely records the differences in each frame, it can
render fast, complex motions with exceptional precision. The MPEG2
engine also uses the Variable Bit Rate system that Panasonic adopted for
the high-end DIGA DVD recorder. Giving LP (long play mode) recordings
nearly twice the resolution captured with previous Panasonic MPEG2
recording video cameras, this lets the SD e.cam and DVD e.cam record
clear, smoothly flowing pictures.
Capture crisp, vivid images, even in low
lighting - Colour Night View
Leave the light off. Colour Night View gives
you images with colour even in dim lighting. Light is gentle and easy on
the eyes, so you can snap shots of sleeping children without waking them
up.
Real-time visual communication WEB Camera
Function
With the camera connected via USB cable to a
PC, start up Windows® Messenger and the camera instantly turns into a
web camera. Ideal for teleconferencing over the Internet, or for
surveillance camera use.
High-performance image processing Pure
Colour Engine
Pure Colour Engine converts the CCD output
signal from a complementary colour 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 colour
reproduction for high-zoomed pictures.
Easy On/Off saves battery life
When you open the LCD, the power switches
on. Shut it and the power goes off. Pull out the viewfinder and the
power switches on. Store it and the power goes off. Easy On/Off reduces
the time required for operating the camera.
Give your subjects smoother looking with
Soft Skin Mode
When this function detects skin tones, it
softens the focus in that area. This has a skin beautifying effect,
which makes wrinkles and lines appear less noticeable. When turned on,
this function makes blemishes and moles look less conspicuous, while
preserving resolution in areas of the picture outside of the skin. |
