The Panasonic HDC-HS300K High Definition (HD) camcorder features a newly-developed 3MOS chip system, plus Panasonic's first camcorder touch-screen that allows icons displayed on the LCD to be easily operated by touching them with a fingertip. Panasonic's new 3MOS system assures high image quality for both motion and still images by using three full-HD MOS sensors to provide the world's highest total pixel count of 9,150,000 pixels (3,050,000 pixels x 3). This semi-professional camcorder is equipped with a newly developed, large-aperture Leica Dicomar lens (filter diameter: 43 mm) and a 1/4.1-inch image sensor. The HDC-HS300K also records still images with a 10.6-megapixel resolution and features an 8.3-megapixel resolution for still images when simultaneously recording with video. The HDC-HS300 has a minimum luminance of 1.6 lux, allowing it to shoot video in very low-light conditions.
The HS300 offers an internal 120 GB Hard Disk Drive (HDD), which can store up to 50 hours of recording (in HE mode). This camcorders can easily copy recorded video from the SDHC/SD Memory Card to the hard disk, or vice versa. The HS300 comes equipped with a manual ring, an electronic viewfinder and a microphone terminal -- all ideal for semiprofessionals looking for more expressive video shooting. The HDC-HS300K allows delicate and precise fingertip control of the zoom, focus, aperture, shutter speed and white balance.
