BlattWorld, Item Details: Panasonic PV-DV400 Digital Palmcorder

3-Way PC Link This year, select Panasonic digital Palmcorder camcorders offer three convenient ways to transfer still images to your computer. CARD LINK. Allows you to transfer still images captured on the 8MB removable MultiMediaCard. The Mult

iMediaCard can be thought of as "digital film" so you can take still pictures and then transfer them to your computer. If the is card full, you can remove it and replace it with a fresh card. Or, selectively erase any or all of the images from the card an

d reuse it. Plus, you can even create your own images on the computer and transfer them back to the MultiMediaCard in the camcorder. PHOTOVU LINK. Allows you to easily transfer still images captured on the Mini DV tape to your computer using an RS-

232C Serial cable. i.LINK Using the industry standard IEEE 1394 PC interface, it allows you to connect your Panasonic digital camcorder to compatible personal computers for advanced editing and viewing purposes. This exceptional digital interface a

lso provides for connection to similarly equipped digital camcorders, allowing you to produce duplicate copies of your personal recordings without any loss in picture quality. 18x Hi-Definition Zoom This year, Panasonic digital camcorders are equi

pped with a lens capable of an 18:1 optical zoom. This powerful feature acts like a telescope to produce close-up shots with extraordinary clarity so you won't miss a single detail. It also offers seven different zoom speeds, so you can go from wide angle

to full telephoto zoom in 2 to 22 seconds. 300x Digital ZOOM Through the use of digital technology, the zoom ratio on these digital Palmcorder camcorders can be increased to an amazing 300:1 for an incredibly close shot. PhotoShot Built-in Di

gital Still Camera The PhotoShot feature allows you to use your digital camcorder as a digital still camera. You can record about 1,000 still images on one 80-minute tape in LP mode. And, you can transfer these still images to your computer for use in

e-mail or printed documents; play them back on your TV to create your own slide show; or print them out in full color with the optional Panasonic PV-PD2100 Digital Photo Printer! To further enhance the photographic effect created by the PhotoShot feature

, you can use the shutter effect to simulate the look and sound of a camera shutter each time you take a still picture. Dual Digital Electronic Image Stabilization (D-EIS) Panasonic invented Digital EIS to compensate for unintentional hand and cam

corder movement to help stabilize your recordings, even when you're recording as a passenger from a moving vehicle or while walking. Now with Dual D-EIS, you can even use the same technology in the Playback mode to help remove additional jitter from previ

ously recorded video. IR Filter On/Off This amazing feature, available on select Panasonic digital camcorder models, allows you to record video in near total darkness with incredible detail (images record in black and white). By simply turning on

the IR Filter, the camcorder uses infrared light to record objects in dark settings up to approximately 10 feet away. Digital Effects (Record & Playback Modes) Now you can add exciting digital effects in both the Recording and Playback modes to mak

e your videos really come to life. Digital Zoom (Playback): Enlarges the center of the playback image by 2x Digital Mirror (Record and Playback): Creates a mirror like symmetrical image Strobe (Record and Playback): Digitally "freezes" a series

of images Mosaic (Record and Playback): Turns the image into a mosaic pattern Slim (Record and Playback): The image expands vertically Stretch (Record and Playback): The image expands horizontally Trail (Record and Playback): Forms multip

le impressions of all images in motion, which gradually fade-out as the motion comes to a halt, creating a "trail" effect Monotone (Playback): The image plays back in black and white Sepia (Playback): Creates the impression of antiquity by applyin

g a sepia tone Gain-Up (Record): Responds to light with super-sensitivity so you can record in low lighting PCM Stereo (12-bit/l6-bit) With the amazing 16-bit PCM technology, you can record audio at extremely high levels for magnificently cris

p stereo sound. The impressive 12-bit PCM technology utilizes two sets of stereo, allowing you to add new audio while maintaining the existing audio, perfect for inserting background music or commentary into your videos. Index Search By automatica

lly placing a signal on the videotape at the beginning of each recorded program, Index Search lets you access each program with a simple touch of the remote control. Auto Index Search previews each indexed recording for a few seconds, so you can determine

which recording you want to play. You can even use this feature to search through still images taken with the PhotoShot built-in digital still carnera. Book Mark Search Probes the blank portion of your tape (in VCR Mode) and finds the end of your

last recording, even after you have ejected your tape and reinserted it for recording at a later date. 5 Mode Proram AE (Auto Exposure) With the 5-Mode Program AE, you can prepare your digital camcorder for almost any recording condition by using

the following automatic exposure settings: Sports: Ideal for sporting events and other fast-paced action. With extraordinarily sharp still and slow playback , you can be your own replay official! Portrait: Focuses on the main subject of the image

and leaves the background slightly out of focus by changing the depth of field. Low Light. Preserves the mood of dim light settings without altering picture brightness. Spot Light: Neutralizes the additional brightness created by a spot light.

Surf & Snow. Compensates for excessive illumination from sun glare to produce a, clear picture
