Product Information

The Panasonic AG-DVC20 is a 1/6" 3CCD camcorder in the DV Proline family of Panasonic cameras. It features a shoulder mounted design that professionals require without carrying a large price tag. The result is a solid performing professional-style camcorder perfect for event and wedding videography. The camera comes with image stabilization, composite and S-Video inputs along with FireWire for easy connection to non-linear editing systems.

Features

• Color Night View Mode

The Color Night View mode allows night shooting with little or no available light. Colors will appear vibrant even if shooting in complete darkness.

• High Quality 10x Optical Zoom Lens

The AG-DVC20 has a 10x optical zoom lens that is up to the task of industrial video acquisition. In a pinch, the operator may choose to engage the digital zoom function, which can go up to 500x to get closer to the action. The camera has a large, smooth-operating, touch-sensitive rocker-switch conveniently located on the hand grip.

• Manual and Auto Functions

Depending on the shooting conditions, you may choose to jog between auto and manual focus, iris, shutter, white balance and audio level control. The lucky operator can take all the credit with full knowledge that the camera almost always can get the shots needed, even in difficult conditions.

• Built-In LCD Monitor

Tired of maintaining, transporting and setting up a location monitor? The attached 2.5" color LCD monitor gives you the option to leave it home. It is positionable to almost any angle including self-portrait position.
