About simultaneous recording (recording still pictures while recording motion pictures)

You can record still pictures even while recording motion pictures.

While recording motion pictures, press the PHOTO SHOT button fully (press to the bottom) to take the picture.

The PHOTO SHOT button cannot be pressed halfway in the simultaneous recording.

The screen indications that appear when the PHOTO SHOT button is pressed halfway will be displayed. (l 47) However, the remaining number of still pictures will not be displayed.

The picture quality is different from normal still picture recording because priority is given to the motion picture recording. We recommend pausing the motion picture recording to record a still picture with better picture quality.

HDC-SD5PP specifications

The Panasonic HDC-SD5PP is a notable entry in the realm of high-definition camcorders. Launched with an emphasis on both compact design and advanced technology, this camcorder has gained recognition for its excellent performance in capturing high-quality video.

One of the standout features of the HDC-SD5PP is its recording capability of 1080p high-definition video. This allows for stunning picture clarity and detail, even in fast-moving scenes.

The camcorder supports recording onto SDHC memory cards, providing convenient and expandable storage solutions.

Another significant highlight is its 3CCD system. This technology consists of three separate image sensors—one for each primary color: red, green, and blue.

The stabilization system is especially notable in the HDC-SD5PP. Panasonic’s Intelligent Auto (iA) mode intelligently adjusts settings such as exposure, focus, and stabilization, allowing novice users to achieve professional-looking footage with ease. The optical image stabilization minimizes the effects of camera shake, ensuring steady shots even in dynamic shooting conditions.

This camcorder integrates an advanced 2.7-inch LCD display, which offers clear and vibrant playback of recorded content. The intuitive touchscreen interface makes navigating menus and adjusting settings straightforward, enhancing the user experience. Additionally, the HDC-SD5PP features various shooting modes, including manual control options for more experienced videographers.
