Panasonic Imaging Technologies Take HD to a Beautiful New Level

3CCD

Rich, vivid colours bring out all the beauty of high definition

HD is especially good for scenes with rich, vibrant colours. And Panasonic 
HD video cameras provide the best in colour reproduction, thanks to use of 
an advanced 3CCD camera system. This system, in which three separate 
CCDs capture and process the light information received through the lens, 
helps reproduce high-resolution HD images with magnificent colour.

Most professional broadcast cameras use the 

3CCD camera system, with its superior colour reproduction. In a 1CCD 
system, all of the incoming light information is processed by the same 
CCD. The more advanced 3CCD system uses three distinct CCDs for 
processing, so there is absolutely no light loss. The 3CCD camera 
system draws out the full potential of HD image quality.

O.I.S.

Suppresses camera shake, so images appear sharp, even on a big-screen TV

Imagine taking video shots on a moving boat and then viewing them 
on a large-screen TV. They're likely to appear blurry from the boat's 
movement and unsteady hands. Panasonic solves this problem with our 
O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabiliser). If you plan to view the videos you record 
on a big-screen TV, be sure to get a camera with an O.I.S. system.

Panasonic's  O.I.S.  minimises  hand-shake.  O.I.S.  is 
extremely effective in situations where hand-shake is 

most often a problem, such as with zoom shots. The system is optical, so 
there is no quality loss. Images look clear and beautiful on a TV screen.

O.I.S.

ON

Even images shot from a moving 
boat are clear and beautiful.

O.I.S.

OFF

The picture is blurry because 
the video photographer's 
hands shook a little.

O.I.S. Lens

The lens moves up/down 
or left/right and bends the 
incoming light to correct 
hand-shake.

When you're shooting, moving the camera even a 
tiny bit - just 0.3 mm – results in an image blur of 
50 mm when the recording is viewed on a 50-inch screen.

LEICA DICOMAR Lens

Exceptional Leica-certified image quality for truly beautiful HD video images

The lens is like the camera's eye – it's the first device that "sees" the subject. 
If you want to capture truly lifelike HD images you need to start with a 
superior lens. That's why Panasonic HD video cameras come equipped with 
a Leica Dicomar lens. This advanced lens system renders finely detailed, 
high-resolution images that unleash the full potential of HD technology.

The  DX1  and  the  SD1  boast  a 

Leica Dicomar lens. Developed specifically for 
HD digital video cameras, these lens systems 
are made using a multi-coating process that 
prevents  light  reflection  and  glare,  which 
can make colours bleed and images appear 
washed out. It also  helps prevent ring of light, or "ghosts."

High-Definition Images

HD images contain 4 times as much information as conventional standard-
definition images. HDTV has 1,080 horizontal scan lines, SDTV has 576. 
That translates into much higher resolution and much finer detail.

AVCHD is a standard developed jointly by Sony and Panasonic for HD video 
cameras. Using highly efficient codec technologies, it records 1080i high-definition 
signals onto media such as 8-cm DVD discs and SDHC/SD Memory Cards.
