Panasonic HC-V770 HD Camcorder - Black

The Panasonic HC-V770 is a Full HD camcorder with 20x optical zoom and HDR (High Dynamic Range) Movie technology to deliver clear, detailed shots even with backlighting. The 4-drive lens system powers each of the four lens groups separately, reducing the drive ranges to result in high image quality, high-powered zooming, and a compact camera body. This technology works with the BSI sensor, which features 6.03M effective pixels, and the high-speed Crystal Engine, for crisp, clear pictures. You can even use your smartphone with Wi-Fi operation as a sub camera, to get footage from two different angles at the same time. Since you are shooting with different cameras, you can use one at a distance, or at any angle you choose. This gives you a wide variety of Picture in Picture images.

Premium Picture Quality
The lens system drives each of four lens groups separately, reducing the drive ranges to result in high image quality, high-powered zooming, and a compact camera body. This combines with the BSI sensor, which features 6.03M effective pixels, and the high-speed Crystal Engine, for crisp, clear pictures.

HDR (High Dynamic Range) Movie
By combining two images taken with different exposure times, the HDR Movie function suppresses blown highlights and blocked shadows for crisper, clearer videos. This is the world's first* consumer camcorder to feature the HDR Movie function. Even in difficult shooting situations, such as backlighting, you can easily capture natural videos with excellent gradation. * In a consumer Full-HD video camera. As of January 5th, 2015.

Wireless Twin Camera
Using your smartphone with Wi-Fi operation as a sub camera, you can shoot from two angles at the same time. Since you are shooting with different cameras, you can use one at a distance, or at any angle you choose. This gives you a wide variety of Picture in Picture images.

20x Optical Zoom with 4-Drive Lens System
By driving each of four lens groups separately, the drive ranges are reduced, resulting in high image quality, high-powered zooming, and a compact camera body. This keeps the body compact even with a 20x optical zoom.

BSI Sensor
The Back Side Illumination Sensor has a large effective area with 6.03M effective pixels, suppressing noise even when shooting in dimly lit places, such as indoor scenes or nightscapes.

Crystal Engine
Panasonic's unique, high-speed engine lets you shoot and play smooth Slow Motion Video in Full-HD. Its Noise Reduction function reduces noise for crisp, vibrantly colorful Full-HD images.

Level Shot Function
The Level Shot function automatically detects and corrects the tilting of captured images. The setting can be adjusted to one of three levels (OFF, Normal, Strong) depending on the shooting conditions.

5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S. +
HYBRID O.I.S. + uses five-axis correction to thoroughly suppress blurring all the way from wide-angle to powerful zoom shots. This lets you capture crisp, clear images without blurring, in almost every shooting situation.

Wind Shield Zoom Microphone
A special damping material is provided in the space between the mic and the mic net to suppress wind noise for clear recording always. Four 6mm-diameter, high-S/N mics and aluminum electrolytic capacitors reduce sound distortion and increase clarity.

Full-HD Slow Motion Video
Records Full-HD (1920 x 1080) at 120 fps.* And the Intelligent Frame Creation of the Crystal Engine interpolates to an equivalent of 240 fps,* for smooth slow motion.
