The Panasonic V800 Full HD camcorder brings together premium optical and sensor performance via a new LEICA DICOMAR 24X optical zoom lens (25-600mm) with a bright aperture range from F1.8 wide - 4.0 tele, and a large 1/2.5 inch BSI MOS Sensor for impressive capture even in low light. To keep the image rock stable, three unique optical image stabilization technology work together; 5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S.+, Ball O.I.S., and Adaptive O.I.S. For a more natural look, the V800 has a new Active Contrast technology equalizes gradation, while the HDR Movie mode enables a wider dynamic range response. Produce the scene like a pro by adding a second video.
Brilliant Image Quality
Enjoy excellent low-light performance with a large 1/2.5 inch sensor and bright F1.8 lens. The remarkable LEICA Dicomar lens produces the subtle nuances and shading that LEICA lenses are renowned for. Capture stunningly beautiful memories even in dimly lit locations.
Wide 25mm and Optical 24x Zoom Lens
The New lens covers the range from 25mm wide-angle to 600mm tele with a 24x zoom achieved by a 4-Drive Lens System. The stunning wide-angle setting not only fits large groups of people and background images into narrow locations, but is also convenient for taking selfies with a rotatable LCD.
New Hybrid O.I.S.
The camcorder uses five-axis correction to thoroughly suppress blurring all the way from wide-angle to powerful zoom shots. Adaptive O.I.S. automatically optimizes the O.I.S. effectiveness by adjusting the O.I.S. mechanical control to various shooting positions, conditions, and user characteristics. The Ball O.I.S. reduces wear on the drive section, and greatly improves correction for small-amplitude hand-shake. With the level shot function, you can automatically detect and correct the tilting of captured images.
Slow Motion Video
Smooth slow motion video makes it possible to portray the emotional sensation of everyday scenes. Even in difficult shooting situations, such as backlighting, you can easily capture natural videos with excellent, realistic gradation.
Active Contrast
Automatically equalizes the gradation in response to the brightness distribution within the image. Also improves contrast in the low brightness areas of dark and back-lit scenes, and avoids blocked shadows.
