Wide-Angle, High-Magnification
16x Zoom Lens
The AG-DVC60's 16x optical zoom
lens answers a broad range of
shooting needs, delivering superb
results from 39.5mm wide angle all
the way to 632mm telephoto (both
35mm lens equivalents). In wide-
angle performance — critical in
broadcast and other professional
applications — this lens is tops in its
class. This new 16x optical zoom lens system uses low-dispersion glass
and aspherical lenses to reduce color aberration and boost resolution.
Use of a special multi-coating process dramatically reduces flare and
ghosts. The result: sharp, crisp, beautifully rendered pictures with vivid
colors, delicate nuances, and exceptional shading.
Optical Image Stabilizer Compensates for Hand Shaking
The AG-DVC60's advanced Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) compensates
for hand shaking that occurs as you shoot. A gyro sensor detects hand-
shake and sends signals to a linear motor, which adjusts the lens to
compensate. Because this process takes place prior to the CCD image
capture (rather than in the downstream electronic processing), it
virtually eliminates any effect of hand-shake on resolution and screen
angle. The OIS can also be helpful when zooming or shooting in dim
lighting.
1/4-Inch, 410,000-Pixel 3CCD Image System:
High Sensitivity, Low Noise
To assure a level of picture quality
suitable for professionals, the AG-
DVC60 uses a 3CCD image system
that delivers the highest sensitivity in
its class. Its high S/N ratio and
extremely low noise (in darker areas
of a picture) combines with high
sensitivity to deliver excellent image
quality even when shooting indoors
under dim lighting. When shooting in
sunlight or under bright spotlights, this 3CCD system offers low smear.
12-bit A/D and RGB Gamma Processor
The AG-DVC60 features an A/D
converter that uses the same 12-bit
processing as broadcast-quality
camera-recorders. This, combined
with an RGB gamma processor that
uses Panasonic's unique gamma
curve function, helps assure high-
image-quality processing. In fact,
the AG-DVC60's A/D converter and
RGB gamma processor are the same
ones used in our popular AG-DVX100A, which has won acclaim as the
industry's highest image quality DV camera.
A Digital Zoom for Professionals
Engineered for professionals, the AG-DVC60 is
equipped with a digital zoom that instantly
magnifies the image by any of five fixed values
— 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x, 5x or 10x.
Use it together with the 16x
optical zoom lens, and you get
super-telephoto magnification
equivalent to a 160x zoom.
Image degradation during the
digital processing is particularly
low in the 1.25x magnification
mode, so you get superb zoom
quality all the way to 20x.
Movie Simulation Mode
The AG-DVC60 can capture and reproduce images that are strikingly
similar in tone to film images, thanks to Panasonic's unique Cine-Like
gamma curve and a 30-fps frame recording function that electronically
interpolates interlaced images to create frames with no time differences
between fields.* Settings for this mode are preset in the Movie-Like
scene file.
*The resulting images are not the same as native progressive images recorded with a progressive CCD.
High-Sensitivity Slow Shutter
The slow shutter function uses image
accumulation to allow shutter speeds with
frame rates reduced by half or more. The
accumulation method provides
bright-color images with less
noise than those captured using
conventional gain-up, so you get
the higher sensitivity needed for
nighttime shooting without
illumination. The slow shutter
function can also be used to
obtain movie-like effects.
16:9 Wide Recording
The aspect ratio can be set to either 4:3 or 16:9
to accommodate wide-image recording. In 16:9
recording, you can select either letterbox or
squeeze mode, giving you more
possibilities in downstream editing
and playback.
