Compact Size and Cool Styling
Small enough to slip in a pocket or bag.
Cool enough to take everywhere you go. This is one stylish camcorder
you'll never want to be without.
Capture Even Complex Motion
with Precision Panasonic's MPEG2 Engine is
a wide-range, high-precision engine that produces smooth, beautiful moving
pictures. Because it precisely records the differences in each frame, it
can render fast, complex motions with exceptional accuracy and nearly
twice the resolution captured with previous Panasonic MPEG2 video cameras.
Pre-Rec Function Records
Images Even Before You Start Shooting This
clever function records three seconds of video even before you actually
begin shooting1. The
images are held temporarily in the camcorder's internal memory before
recording onto the SD card begins, so you can capture that spontaneous
event as soon as it happens.
No More Missed Shooting
Opportunities with Quick Start The SW20 SD
camcorder starts up to record quickly. In Quick Start mode2,
recording begins in just 0.6 seconds from the time the LCD is opened. This
lets you catch those sudden shooting opportunities.
Easy DVD Copying and Viewing
The USB port allows you to connect directly to a DVD burner. And copying a
recording from an SD card to a DVD disc is as easy as selecting from the
menu. To view your video, simply take the SD card from the camcorder and
slip it into any TV or DVD player with an SD card slot; there are no
cables to worry about.
Edit Your Videos
First, transfer the motion-image data from the SD
card to your PC3 using
your PC's USB port. Then with the included MotionSD STUDIO 1.3E software,
you can easily put scenes in a different order, delete the ones you don't
want, and add a wide variety of video effects. Save your results by
burning your video production onto DVD.
