The Panasonic SDR-T70 Camcorder is a budget-friendly way to record your life. With more controls and larger storage capacity than most pocket camcorders, the T70 is a great option for those looking for an entry-level camcorder that does more than just point and shoot. In addition, the camera's 4GB of built-in flash memory and the SDXC/SDHC/SD memory card slot provides hours upon hours of storage.
The T70 has a 2.7" LCD screen, a 33mm wide-angle lens, which allows you to get everyone in the shot, and handy features like 78x Enhanced optical zoom, and Advanced Optical Image Stabilization for a steady image. User-friendly shooting controls like Intelligent Auto and Intelligent Scene Selector take the guesswork out of shooting for you by automatically picking the correct settings for any given situation. And other features, like editing and uploading options, help you to share your video in a number of ways.
- Enhanced Optical 78x Zoom and Advanced O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer)
- The new Enhanced optical 78x zoom has been added to the compact body of the easy-to-carry camcorder. By taking maximum advantage of the effective CCD area, the camera makes it easy to capture a wide range of dynamic images, from sweeping landscapes with the 33mm wide-angle scope to close-ups of distant subjects with the 78x zoom, without having to worry about image degradation. However, with long-distance zoom shots, even a tiny bit of hand-shake has a huge effect on picture quality. That's where Advanced O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) comes in. It shifts a corrective lens as you shoot to help eliminate the effects of hand-shake, so you get clear, sharp shots even at high zoom levels. It's an essential feature for getting the most out of this incredible zoom lens
- 33mm Wide-Angle Lens
-
The 33mm wide-angle setting on the Standard Series fits more people and more of the background into the frame than conventional models. This is especially handy when you want to take a group photo in a small room. It fits your subjects in even when you shoot from up close, and makes it possible to pick up even small sounds with the mic.
Zoom Shooting:
The effect of hand-shake is suppressed, resulting in a clear, beautiful image. The correction range is automatically adjusted to correspond to the amount of hand-shake. Because the system is optical, the loss of image quality is minimal
Wide Shooting:
The correction range is automatically adjusted to correspond to the amount of hand-shake
- Pure Color Engine
- The Pure Color Engine converts the CCD output signal from a complementary color signal into an RGB signal at an early stage and extracts the low-frequency luminance component from the RGB signal. This innovative engine also achieves truly superb color reproduction for high-zoomed pictures
- Zoom Mic and Wind Noise Canceller
-
- Zoom Mic:
The Zoom Mic function that links with the camera's zoom action has evolved. Compared to previous Panasonic 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
- Zoom Mic:
- Scene Mode
-
Automatically selects the most suitable shutter speed and aperture for the shooting location and situation
Scene modes:
Sports, Portrait, Low Light, Spot Light, Snow, Beach, Sunset, Fireworks, Scenery, Night Scenery
- Soft Skin Mode
- When this function detects skin tones, it softens the focus in that area. This has a skin beautifying effect, which makes wrinkles and lines appear less noticeable. When turned on, this function makes blemishes and moles look less conspicuous, while preserving resolution in areas of the picture outside of the skin
- iA (Intelligent Auto)
- This powerful function senses the shooting conditions and automatically makes the settings and activates functions that will deliver optimal results. With both motion and still images, iA does the bothersome settings for you and makes it easy to capture beautiful, well-focused images
- AF/AE Tracking
- AF/AE Tracking optimizes the focus and exposure for a selected subject to ensure beautiful results. After you "lock on" to a subject at the center of the screen by pressing the AF/AE button, the camera follows it around, keeping it in sharp focus and properly exposed
- Advanced O.I.S. with Active Mode
-
When hand-shake is detected while shooting, the Advanced O.I.S. system is automatically activated to compensate for blurring and produce beautiful recorded images. A new Active Mode that further extends the hand-shake correction range, is also automatically activated. It significantly reduces any blurring that might occur when shooting on the move, and making it great for active shooting. The wide correction area corrects even wide-frame shots and relatively large hand-shake motion. It's especially good for active video shooting. Because the system is optical, there's only minimal loss of image quality even when viewed on a large-screen TV
- Intelligent Contrast Control
- By detecting the intensity of the ambient light and adjusting the exposure accordingly, Intelligent Contrast Control prevents blown highlights and blocked shadows. This helps render natural-looking, highly nuanced images with proper contrast
- Intelligent Scene Selector
-
The shooting conditions are detected, and the optimal Scene Mode is automatically selected. Even if the subject should change, there's no need to manually redo the settings, so you can concentrate entirely on your shot
- 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
- Portrait:
- Face Detection
- This mode captures faces beautifully. Face Detection automatically senses the ambient lighting and adjusts the exposure accordingly, so faces are bright and easy to see. The focus also prioritizes the faces, and skin tones are smoothed. Faces in the center of the frame serve as the reference for adjustments, but the function can detect up to 15 faces in all
- 1.9 Second Quick Power-On
-
Switch the power on and the camcorder is in standby mode in just 1.9 seconds, ready to shoot when you are. This fast startup also helps reduce battery consumption
- 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
- 0.8 Second Quick Start:
- Relay Recording
-
The Relay Recording mode automatically switches from the built-in flash memory (once it's full) to the SDXC/SDHC/SD Memory Card and continues recording. You don't have to worry about missing an important shot while switching media
How to combine motion images that are split onto two types of media as a continuous scene
- Arrange the data that is split onto two types of media on an SDXC/SDHC/SD memory card:
If the SDXC/SDHC/SD memory card has sufficient capacity, it's possible to arrange all of that split data as a single continuous scene on the SDXC/SDHC/SD memory card
- Use the included software:
You can also using the editing software that is included with the camcorder to join the split data as a continuous scene
- Use an optional DVD burner to create a disc:
If the SDXC/SDHC/SD memory card is not big enough to hold all of the split data, use a DVD burner to create a disc with all the motion images as a single continuous scene
- Arrange the data that is split onto two types of media on an SDXC/SDHC/SD memory card:
- Pre-Rec Function
- This clever function records three seconds of images even before you actually begin shooting. The images are held temporarily in the camcorder's internal memory, before recording begins. This helps ensure that you won't miss the start of a moment you want to record, such as when an event begins all of a sudden. For example, if you're waiting to snap a shot of a jumping dolphin, you can press the REC button after you've made sure that the dolphin has cleared the surface of the water. The camcorder will record the entire scene, from the instant of the dolphin's jump until it disappears again into the sea
- One-Touch Navigation & Joystick Control
-
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
- Help mode:

- Help mode:
- Auto Power LCD
- The LCD brightness can be adjusted manually to suit the surroundings. In Auto Mode, the LCD brightness is adjusted automatically in 16 smooth steps depending on the surroundings. In darker rooms it adjusts to a lower brightness, making it easier to frame the shot. Outside, it adjusts to almost twice the brightness for easy viewing even on sunny days
- Color Night Rec/Color Night View
- Leave the light off. Color Night Rec/Color Night View gives you images with color even in dim lighting (2 lux)
- World Time

Simply select your destination from the displayed map, and the camcorder is automatically set for that time zone. The time for two different places can be set - such as home and destination - and you can switch between the times by simply pressing a button
- Easy Editing
-
You can do some polished editing using just the camera itself. For example, you can delete scenes right on the spot or change the scene sequence to create your own scenarios
- Split and Delete:
This function makes it easy to split up the recorded scenes and delete the front half or back half
- Split and Delete:
- Easy Uploading to YouTube and Facebook - with the Included Software "VideoCam Suite 3.5"

- Easy Archiving
- Recorded image data can be saved onto a DVD by simply connecting the camcorder to a DVD burner (purchased separately) with a USB cable and pressing a button. You can also use the included software and a Windows PC to save data onto an SD card or a DVD
- VIERA Image Viewer
- If your VIERA TV has an SD Memory Card Slot and can play MPEG2 files, you're equipped for spectacular viewing. Just slip your card into the slot and get ready to watch beautiful motion pictures on VIERA's large screen. You get all the fun of seeing your images on the big screen, with none of the hassle of connecting cables
- Storing on a DIGA
- If you have an MPEG2 compatible DIGA with an internal hard disk and SD Memory Card Slot, saving your images on the hard disk is as easy as inserting an SDXC/SDHC/SD Memory Card into the slot. This saves space you'd otherwise need for storing the recording media, and makes playback easier. And once the data is on the hard disk, it's easy to copy it to a DVD disc
