Panasonic HDC-HS700 camcorder

Three high-end camcorders to see farther and wider!

Combining a wide-angle zoom with an exceptionally powerful, that’s the ambition of the 700 series.

Today, two types of digital camcorders share the market: on one side of bag sizes and the optical characteristics and basic, on the other, real small cameras that can compete with professional tools. The 700 series includes models that Panasonic HDC-HS700, HDC-TM700 and HDCSD700, proposed to the respective prices of 999, 1 199 and 1 399, are undoubtedly part of advanced products.

35 mm and 18x smart zoom
The wide angle is necessary gradually a picture as in video. Here, with a view 35 mm, these camcorders are actually wide-angle models. The interest is evident, is to shoot more without having to back off without thinking, which is very useful indoors. The new sensor 3MOS (9.15 megapixel, three megapixel sensor 3.05 each) should also permit to film in terms of average brightness through a lens of 46mm focal length and an aperture of 1.5 . The Leica lens Dicomar should make the details with great nuance and vividness in color.

If the 700 series sees broad and clear, she sees so far! This is what allows the HS700 Ultra Zoom allows magnification of 18x. Fortunately, optical image stabilizer is also present and should compensate for the involuntary movement of the camera. This is the same model as on-board cameras Lumix series.

The camcorder all options
Touch screen with stylus, viewfinder, hot shoe, manual ring, eight exposure modes, the representatives of the 700 series are advanced devices. The recordings (on the internal hard drive of 240 GB for the HS700 or SD, SDHC or SDXC) are so obviously Full HD and AVCHD 50p to promote the fluidity of the image. This, while the sound is a multichannel surround mode 5.1. Further evidence of this abundance of goods, the highest representative, or the HS700, takes pictures in 14 megapixels, which will consider all possible extensions.
