Leica Dicomar Lens with Wide-Angle
and 12x Zoom Range
The glass-molded, ultra high refractive index, aspherical lens
enables wide-angle shots with a wide end of 38.5mm (35mm
conversion) from a compact unit. So even with 12x optical
zoom*, you can shoot with superb HD image quality.
Featuring 13 individual lens elements arranged in 10 groups, the
Leica Dicomar lens is specifically designed for HD shooting.
The lens elements are made of low dispersion glass to assure low
chromatic aberration and high resolution. A total of 21 multi-
coated lens surfaces minimize flare and ghosting.
* Digital zoom goes up to 700x.

Optical Image Stabilizer Compensates for Hand-Shake
The AG-HMC70's advanced Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS)
compensates for hand shaking that occurs as you shoot. Gyro
sensors detect hand-shake and send signals to a linear motor,
which adjusts the lens to compensate. Because this process takes
place prior to the CCD image capture (rather than in the
downstream electronic processing), it virtually eliminates any
effect of hand-shake on resolution and screen angle. The OIS
can also be helpful when zooming or shooting in dim lighting.
It's perfect for those Run & Gun applications.
* Due to particularly large vibrations caused by hand-shake or other conditions, blurring may not be
eliminated. * Depending on shooting conditions, no large difference may appear.
1/4-inch Progressive CCD Faithfully Reproduces Colors
To assure high sensitivity,
Panasonic developed a 1/4-inch
progressive CCD. Enlarging the
area of each CCD pixel enables
high-sensitivity shots in light as
low 6 lux. This lets you shoot
dark scenes with minimal noise.
High-Precision Progressive Scan
In the AG-HMC70's camera section, the progressive CCD
creates native progressive images with outstanding vertical
resolution. Progressive interlace conversion is then used to
provide image quality that is higher than you get with
conventional electronic
interpolation of
interlaced signals.
Progressive 3D noise
reduction also
dramatically reduces
noise and after-
images.
