Description:

With a Leica Dicomar 10x optical zoom lens featuring optical image stabilization and a 3-CCD imaging system, the PV-DV951 is a top-of-the-line digital camcorder perfect for the family or the aspiring filmmaker. Your shots can be framed using either the gorgeous 3.5-inch LCD monitor, or the color EVF. A manual focus ring allows you to create interesting depth of field effects, and to use other video techniques.

An external mic input is included, which means you have the ability to utilize more professional sound gear, if you so desire. Otherwise, you can just stick to the built-in microphone. A headphone jack is also included, making it easy to monitor the sound you are getting.

Professional videographers adjust a number of camera functions based on what setting they are shooting in. Panasonic has conveniently included a five-mode program AE for just this purpose. Simply select the environment, and the camera will make the adjustments necessary to optimize footage. You can choose from among sports, portrait, low light, spot light, and surf and snow. You also get the added benefit of a number of digital effects and faders that can help add a bit of professional flair to your video creations.

Still images are captured at a resolution of 1,200 x 900 pixels onto the included 8 MB SD card. A USB card-reader accompanies the camcorder for easy download of your images.
