The V785 Full-HD Camcorder shoots bright, crisp images even in dim lighting, due to a 34% larger sensor (1/2.3-inch vs. standard 1/5.8-inch). To reduce hand shake, the AUTO O.I.S. Lock function automatically activates. Compact camera body includes 4-drive lens system and optical 20x zoom. Smooth slow motion video, multi manual dial settings, and a wind shield zoom microphone for high sound quality.
High Sensitivity 1/2.3-inch BSI Sensor for Bright, Beautiful Shots Even in Dim Lighting
The 1/2.3-inch Back Side Illumination Sensor has a large effective area and 34% larger pixels than a 1/5.8-inch sensor for reduced noise in low light
Level Shot Function for More Stable Images and Less Blurring
Detects and corrects the tilting of captured images; hybrid O.I.S. thoroughly suppress blurring all the way from wide-angle to powerful zoom shots for crisp, clear images
Powerful Zoom in a Compact Camera Body
By driving each of four lens groups separately, the drive ranges are reduced, resulting in high image quality and high-powered zooming in a compact camcorder
Crisp, Clear Details in Both Bright and Dark Areas
By combining two images taken with different exposure times, the HDR Movie function suppresses blown highlights and blocked shadows for crisp, clear videos
Wireless Twin Camera
Wireless Twin Camera for Picture-in-Picture Shooting with a Smartphone; Using your smartphone with Wi-Fi operation as a sub camera, you can shoot from two angles at the same time
