40GB Large Capacity Hard Disk
The H40 has a 40GB hard disk drive that holds up to 36 hours of recording (in LP mode).

Advanced O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabiliser)
Panasonic's O.I.S., which uses gyrosensors to detect hand-shake and shifts the lens unit to correctly align the optical axis, has been further improved to prevent blur even more effectively. The Advanced O.I.S. checks and compensates for hand-shake around 4,000 times per second. Because this is an optical system, there is no loss of quality, resulting in images that are captured in all of their original beauty. Advanced O.I.S. prevents the subtle blurring that can be caused by even a slight bit of hand-shake, and it is truly necessary in an age of large-screen, high-resolution TVs, when every image imperfection is easily visible.

42x Optical Zoom
The H40 boasts a massive 42x zoom magnification in a camera that fits comfortably and securely in one hand. Allowing you to get closer to the action, the H40's optical zoom captures moving pictures with great beauty.

One Touch DVD Recording using the VW-BN1E (Optional)
Simply connect the H40 to the VW-BN1E via USB, and a single button push allows copy from camcorder direct to DVD. The disc made can be played on DVD players, so sharing & playback is easy.
