Panasonic SDR-H100 Camcorder (Black)

• Zoom Mic:

  The Zoom Mic function that links with the camera's zoom action has evolved even further. Compared to previous models, the noise-reducing performance is improved by 1/3 (-10dB). It lets you clearly record the sound of your target subject

• Wind Noise Canceller:

  The Wind Noise Canceller automatically detects and suppresses only wind noise. It lets you capture natural sounds with lifelike ambience even when shooting in windy conditions outdoors or by the sea

• Scene modes:

  Sports, Portrait, Low Light, Spot Light, Snow, Beach, Sunset, Fireworks, Scenery, Night Scenery

• Portrait:

  Using the face as reference, the exposure is adjusted to capture faces beautifully. Focusing priority is also placed on the face, and the skin tone is smoothed

• Scenery:

  The exposure is optimized to give you clear images, without blown highlights in strongly lit areas like the sky

• Spotlight:

  For scenes with particularly strong contrast, such as when you're shooting a spot-lit area on a darkened stage. It captures the well-lit subject perfectly and prevents washed-out areas

• Low Light:

In dim lighting, the camcorder automatically switches to a slower shutter speed so that images across the entire frame are bright and easy to see

• 0.8 Second Quick Start:

  Use Quick Start mode. You simply flip open the LCD and you're ready to shoot in just 0.8 second. When Eco mode is also used, the power turns off whenever the camcorder has not been operated for 5 minutes. This reduces wasted power consumption, and enables a longer battery life

Anti-Shock Shield:

• 1: The Drop Detect function senses if the camera is falling and moves the head away from the hard drive. Incorporating a 3D sensor, this function detects if the camera drops a distance of around 20cm and responds by automatically moving the head away from the hard drive. This helps protect the drive from damage
• 2: The Floating Structure protects the hard drive should the camera fall or be dropped. The four corners of the hard drive are covered with a thick protective gel that provides cushioning against vibration and impact
• 3: The Buffer Memory automatically backs up data. Even when the Drop Detect function activates and moves the head away from the hard drive, shooting can continue (as long as there is battery power). The newly recorded data is stored temporary in an internal buffer memory. Once the hard drive resumes operation, the data is transferred to

• Help Mode:

  The joystick makes the camera much easier to use, letting you control all basic operations quickly. As you shoot, just watch the image in the monitor and follow the instruction guide. You can handle a number of operations quickly and easily, without even taking your eye off the subject

• Split and Delete:

  This function makes it easy to split up the recorded scenes and delete the front half or back half

• Step 1: Shoot

  The function-packed standard model lets you shoot in your own unique style. When you want to post videos onto YouTube, it's convenient to shoot in Web mode, which has a 10 minute countdown system

• Step 2: Connect

  As soon as you connect the camcorder to a PC, a Smart Wizard is automatically activated. Then, select "Online Sharing"

• Step 3: Upload

  The Online Sharing function lets you upload your videos onto YouTube or Facebook. VideoCam Suite makes it so easy to share your videos
