NV-GS85 - miniDV camcorder
The GS85 features O.I.S. and a 32x Optical Zoom. O.I.S. minimises hand-shake, and because it's an optical system, there is no quality loss. The 32x Optical Zoom lens is the most powerful zoom available, and also features low distortion.
A joystick control makes the camera much easier to use, letting you control all basic operations with one hand. And Quick Start mode helps shoot videos on the spur of the moment.
The GS85/GS80 features a Web Camera function.
