Panasonic introduces new MiniDV camcorder

The new 5.5-pound camcorder has 12-bit A/D and RGB gamma processor.

Panasonic has introduced the AG-DVC60, a 3-CCD MiniDV camcorder. The new 5.5-pound camcorder has 12-bit A/D and RGB gamma processor, and modes for infrared nighttime shooting, 16:9 aspect ration and movie-like emulation.

Equipped with three 410,000-pixel CCDs, the new camcorder has a wide-angle 16x zoom lens with optical image stabilizer (OIS) and a focal length of 39.5mm to 632mm (35mm still camera equivalent). The new lens has low-dispersion glass to reduce chromatic aberration, flare and ghosting. For sports applications, the 16x high-speed optical zoom is fast in transitioning between wide and telephoto modes.
