Extra-long record time, very high picture quality and smart features
Keep shooting for longer
Crisp HD video and still images
Less camera shake even when you're walking


Beautifully styled and easy to use with incredible image quality. Extra-long Full HD recording on internal 120GB hard disk drive, GPS, Optical SteadyShot Active Mode, GPS, 5.1 surround sound and Face Detection.
No more camera shake:
Wobbly pictures caused by unsteady hands are a common problem when you’re shooting without a tripod. Optical SteadyShot Active Mode Image stabilization cuts the effects of camera shake for clear, steady results, even if you’re walking along while shooting..
Natural looking faces every time:
Faces can look dark and underexposed in bright, backlit situations like a sun-drenched beach. And if you’re shooting indoors there’s a risk your subject’s skin tone can look unnaturally coloured. The camcorder fine-tunes focus, exposure and skin tone for more natural looking faces..
More smiles every time:
Wouldn’t it be great having a photographer by your side, capturing great still pictures of happy faces while you’re shooting video of a party or another special event? Smile Shutter automatically shoots still photos whenever your subject smiles, without interrupting video recording..


Know where you are… And were you’ve been:
GPS tracks your position as you travel. See the exact location of your clips and still images with maps on the LCD screen. Then review your journey when you’re back home with online Google Maps on your PC.
Anyone can make their own movies:
Once you’ve shot a lot of footage with your camcorder, it takes time and effort to edit the results together and produce your own ‘mini movies’. The camcorder automatically picks and assembles clips together, adding professional-looking transition effects and a music soundtrack..
