- Key Features
- One-Finger Menu Navigation
- The thumb wheel allows you to access basic options like JPEG playback and tape recording quickly. A separate joystick allows for deeper navigation of menu features and camera controls.
- Quickstart
- The NV-GS60's Quickstart all you need to do is open the viewfinder or LCD screen and your camera is ready to record instantly.
- 30x Optical Zoom Lens
- The NV-GS60's 30x optical zoom lens boasts a high-performance imaging advantage over the lens offerings of other Panasonic camcorders, and other brands' models.
- Soft Skin Mode
- This feature detects skin tones, and softens the focus in that area of the picture. Blemishes and lines appear less noticeable, while other areas in the picture remain sharp.
- 5 Mode Program AE (Auto Exposure)
- You can prepare your camcorder for almost any recording condition by using the following automatic exposure settings: Sports Mode, Portrait Mode, Low Light, Spot Light, Surf & Snow.
- MagicPix Images
- A great way to record still images, even in low-light conditions. Now you can capture still images in full color onto the camcorder's mini DV tape.
- PhotoShot digital still camera
- The PhotoShot digital still camera feature lets you use the camcorder as a still camera. The PV-GS36 is also ready for a variety of multimedia applications and can easily serve as a web camera for videoconferencing.
- Progressive PhotoShot Mode
- This feature helps to eliminate fuzziness by capturing the image and then temporarily storing the image in two separate fields. The two images of the exact same moment are then combined, with no time lag, to produce images of better quality than standard recorded stills.
- Cinema Mode
- The NV-GS60 allows you to record video in widescreen mode, giving you a 16:9 aspect ratio. When played back on a television, the result is dramatic looking cinema-like movies at home.
- Zoom Mic
- As you zoom in on the picture, the audio will also zoom in so you can better pinpoint sound sources.
- RapidFire Consecutive Photoshot
- Allows you to record still pictures at approximately 0.07 second intervals until the PhotoShot button is released or 16 pictures are recorded.
- Built-in LED Light
- A built-in LED light can be switched on to illuminate subjects in low-light shooting situations.
