Welcome to the Full-High-Definition Age

When It Comes to Beauty, There's Simply No Match for Full-HD HD images contain 6 times as much information as standard images, and HDTV has 1,080 horizontal scan lines to standard TV's 480. That means much higher resolution and much greater detail – which is why the world is steadily shifting to HD. Panasonic HD camcorders record 1920 x 1080 full-HD images* – the highest level of HD quality there is. Viewed on an HDTV, the pictures are so sharp and clear that you can even distinguish textures. That's the kind of image quality you want when capturing special moments – the kind of moments that will only come once, but that you'll want to enjoy forever. When it comes to capturing beautiful images, an HD camcorder is the best choice. And when it comes to HD camcorders, there's no better choice than Panasonic.
*In HG (high image quality) mode. 1920 x 1080 full-HD recording with a Panasonic home-use camcorder refers to recording with 1,920 pixels in the horizontal direction and 1,080 pixels in the vertical direction.
