Panasonic PV-GS180 News Release Summary:
New Line Includes Model With 1/4.7” CCDs, Leica Optics,
And Optical Image Stabilization
LAS VEGAS, NV (January 4, 2006) ¾ Building on the success of
last year’s highly-acclaimed 3CCD camcorders, Panasonic this
year introduces three new 3CCD models with more advanced
features and affordable price points.
New models PV-GS180, PV-GS300 and PV-GS500 incorporate the same
type of 3CCD imaging system used in Panasonic’s professional
broadcast equipment, resulting in 540 lines of breathtaking
resolution. Individual CCDs are used to capture the red, green
and blue colors that compose an image for vivid, true-to-life
pictures with remarkable color reproduction.
“This year’s line offers the advantages of 3CCD technology
starting with a suggested retail price of $599.95,” said Rudy
Vitti, national marketing manager, Panasonic Optical Group. “And
topping the list is model PV-GS500, which gives consumers true
pro-sumer performance at a suggested retail price of under
$1000.00.”
Model PV-GS180 features 2.3 mega-pixel still image recording,
10x optical zoom and 700x digital zoom1, color viewfinder, 2.5”
LCD, joystick control for easy, one-finger navigation, DV output
(firewire) for easy digital connection to compatible PCs, SD
Memory Card slot and high-speed USB 2.0 for high quality
full-motion video transfer.
Model PV-GS300 features Optical Image Stabilization and adds 3.1
mega-pixel still image recording, a high-performance Leica lens,
16:9 widescreen format recording, and 2.7” LCD.
The PV-GS500 offers enhanced low-light sensitivity with a bright
F1.6 Leica lens and large 1/4.7” CCDs. It features 4 mega-pixel
still image recording, 12x optical zoom, Optical Image
Stabilization, manual focus ring and Pro Cinema mode (30 fps
progressive recording) for capturing images with film-like
quality.
“Judging by consumer reaction to the award-winning GV-GS400, we
responded to the demand for more high-resolution, 3CCD
products,” said Vitti. “We believe the 2006 line delivers beyond
their expectations.”
