The GZ-HD7 utilises a lens designed for high definition by FUJINON.
FUJINON is the leader in professional camera lens for live HD images.
This lens features 3 aspherical elements and provides nearly the
same brightness (F1.8-1.9) throughout its zoom range. In addition,
the lens surface is coated with a new Electronic Beam Coating (EBC)
that greatly reduces degradation caused by light reflecting off the lens
surfaces, leading to greater light transmission and reduced flaring and
ghosting.

Three 1/5" Progressive Scan CCDs with Pixel Shift Technology
For bright, realistic colours the HD Everio uses three 1/5-inch CCDs –
one each for red, green and blue. Naturally, by having dedicated
CCDs for each primary colour, the camera is able to gather the
maximum visual information which leads to more realistic colour
reproduction and presence. Using Pixel Shift Technology, the Red and
Blue pixel locations are shifted relative to Green, allowing the sampled
colour information to be quadrupled through interpolation.
