Quick Start
Never miss a quickly unfolding shot again. Push the Quick Start button
between shots -it places the HG10 in standby mode. When the action starts,
push the Quick Start button again to begin recording in less than one second.
You’ll also help extend your battery life compared with leaving the camcorder
in regular recording mode.
Low Light Performance
By increasing the sensitivity of the HG10s HD CMOS sensor
and using improved xed-pattern “noise” reduction technology,
you can now shoot clearer, sharper video at very low light levels.
When taken with a 1/30 sec. slow shutter, subjects can be shot
at light levels as low as just 3 lux. You won’t be afraid to shoot
indoors or in poorly lit outdoor locations again.
For the best exposure for various situations, the HG10’s Program AE mode
will automatically adjust the settings to compensate for the conditions and
subject. Choose from Portrait, Sports, Night, Snow, Beach, Sunset, Spotlight
and Fireworks. You won’t have to guess if you’re capturing all the action just
the way you want it because the HG10 will do it for you.

Built-in Electronic Lens Cover
Never worry about a lost lens cover or one that gets in your way when shooting.
The built-in electronic lens cover on the HG10 automatically opens when you turn
the camcorder on and closes when you turn it off.
