[CES 2012] Panasonic continues to cater to the consumer crowd with their latest range of camcorders, as you can never quite tell just when you need to shoot and preserve memories, can you? The 1MOS models will be the ones that have undergone the most change, and you will soon have a headache as you decide on which one of the six Full HD capable camcorders deserves a place by your side on your travels. Both the HC-V700 and HC-V700M are high end 1MOS models that sport a proprietary High Sensitivity Sensor that is said to deliver better indoor and night-time shots, in addition to its ability to shoot stereoscopic 3D when used with the new VW-CLT2 conversion lens. Not only that, you get to enjoy a 21x optical and 46x “high-powered’ zoom.
As for the mid-range HC-V500/M cameras, these will tread the boundary between 2D and 3D imagery without breaking the back, thanks to an image conversion function. Special effects modes such as Natural, Pop, Dynamic & Classical are also thrown into the mix for that added artistic touch if you are interested to have something different on your Facebook page. Apart from that, the Panasonic HC-X900M that you see above is the new full HD 3MOS video shooter which does Full 1080p at 28Mbps, and is said to reduce noise by 40% compared to its predecessor, the HDC-HS900. 32GB of internal memory will be accompanied by an SD memory card slot, a better O.I.S. (Optical Stabilizing System), a zoom mic and a 3.5” LCD display.
There is still no word on pricing or availability as at press time.
