PANASONIC Full HD Camcorder with 24x LEICA DICOMAR Lens, Three Optical Stabilizer Technologies, Wireless Twin-Camera Capture, HC-V800
The Panasonic V800 Full HD camcorder combines premium optical and sensor performance via a new LEICA DICOMAR 24x optical zoom lens (25-600mm) with a bright aperture range from F1.8 wide - 4.0 tele and a large 1/2.5" BSI MOS Sensor for impressive capture even in low light. To keep the image rock stable, three unique optical image stabilization technologies work together; 5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S.+, Ball O.I.S. and Adaptive O.I.S. For a more natural look, the V800 has a new Active Contrast technology to equalize gradation, while the HDR Movie mode enables a wider dynamic range response. Produce the scene like a pro by adding a second video scene to the mix with Wireless Twin-camera simply by connecting video from a smartphone.

Available only with 24p mode.
New Hybrid O.I.S.
5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S. +
Uses five-axis correction to thoroughly suppress blurring all the way from wide angle to powerful zoom shots.
Adaptive O.I.S.
Automatically optimizes the O.I.S. effectiveness by adjusting the O.I.S. mechanical control to various shooting positions, conditions and user characteristics.
Ball O.I.S.
Reduces wear on the drive section and greatly improves correction for small-amplitude hand-shake.
Level Shot Function
Automatically detects and corrects the tilting of captured images.
Slow Motion Video
Smooth slow motion video makes it possible to portray the emotional sensation of everyday scenes.
Wireless Multi Camera
Using Wi-Fi you can double the shooting fun by linking as many as three smartphones and simultaneously recording up to two of them as sub-windows.
HDR Movie
Even in difficult shooting situations, such as backlighting, you can easily capture natural videos with excellent, realistic gradation.
Active Contrast
Automatically equalizes the gradation in response to the brightness distribution within the image. It also improves contrast in the low brightness areas of dark and back-lit scenes, and avoids blocked shadows.
