NV-GS300E Digital Camcorder
<b>Mini DV e.cam with 3CCD and Optical Image Stabilizer for highest image quality with DV-In</b>
Panasonic is proud to introduce the NVGS300 MiniDV Ecam which comes fully equipped with 3CCD and O.I.S. technologies for enhanced quality movies and still images.
<b>3CCD</b>
The cameras CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) plays a critical role in picture quality. Thats why Panasonic chose a 3CCD camera system - the type used in professional video cameras. Panasonics 3CCD system reduces noise by 30%*, gains horizontal resolution in colors by 50%* and dynamic range to express luminous gradation by 30%* to render greater beauty in color, detail, and gradation. *Panasonic in-house comparison with 1CCD model
<b>O.I.S.(Optical Image Stabilizer)</b>
The O.I.S. helps assure clear, beautiful pictures by compensating for any hand-shake that occurs as you shoot. Gyrosensors detect the amount and direction of hand shake and a linear motor adjust the lenses as needed to compensate. While electric system correct the hand-shake in the CCD image itself, the optical process takes place before the CCD imaging stage and so, there is virtually no effect on image quality.
<b>Leica Dicomar Lens</b>
Leica lens is renowned by photographers world-wide as a maker of superb cameras and lenses. Now this legendary optical technology fuses with Panasonics advanced digital technology in the Leica Dicomar Lens.

<b>Crystal Engine</b>
At the brain of the camera is Panasonics original Crystal Engine, advanced system that processes the R,G and B signals from three CCDs individually to remove noise and improve colour processing accuracy. The Crystal Engine is the best image processing LSI for the 3CCD recording and is incorporated in every high end model that carries 3CCD.
