Exceptional Leica-certifi ed image quality
For shooting even in dim lighting
The GS320 boasts a Leica Dicomar lens. Developed
specifically for digital video cameras and featuring
original optical technology from Leica, this advanced
lens captures clear, crisp, fi nely nuanced images with
outstanding detail and contrast. Also, the lens was manufactured using
a multi-coating process that reduces flare and ghosts.

When illumination is insufficient,
turn on the built-in LED video light to
take crisp, colorful movies. The LED
(light emitting diode) has low power
consumption, long service life, and the
safety of a low operating temperature.

Advanced O.I.S. and 42x Optical Zoom
If you have a powerful zoom, you need optical image stabilization
This 42x zoom lens has the power you need to take dramatic closeups or get remarkable shots of even
distant subjects. But with long-distance zoom shots, even a tiny bit of hand shake has a huge effect on picture
quality. That's where image stabilization comes in. Panasonic's Advanced O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilization)
shifts a corrective lens as you shoot to eliminate the effects of hand shake, so you get clear, sharp, blur-free
shots even at high zoom levels. It's an essential feature for getting the most out of this incredible zoom lens.

A USB cable lets you connect your camera to your PC,
making it easy to transfer the motion images.

3CCD Camera System
Triple beauty
-
remarkable color,
detail and gradation
Most professional broadcasting cameras use the 3CCD
camera system, with its superb color reproduction.
The advanced 3CCD camera system uses three distinct
CCDs for processing, so there is absolutely no light loss. You can see the results
in beautifully rendered images with vivid color, fi ne detail, and rich gradation.

AGS (Auto Ground-Directional Standby)
Helps prevent wasted shots
The O.I.S. linear motor system can detect
when the camera is in an unusual shooting
position – when you've inadvertently left
it on in recording mode. In these cases,
the camera automatically stops recording,
saving both battery power and disc space.
*This mode can be selected from the menu.
