Panasonic AG-DVC30 Versatile DV Camera for Professionals

Multiple modes to meet multiple needs— such as the Zero Lux IR mode for night time shooting
With features like time/date superimposition and the Zero Lux IR mode — the world's first* infrared nighttime shooting mode (B&W) in a 3CCD camera-recorder — the AG-DVC30 is ideal for professional monitoring and surveillance use. Add a slow shutter mode for high-sensitivity color recording, Cine-Like gamma curve, and 30-fps frame recording that gives images a film-like appearance, and you've got ultra-flexible performance to meet a host of professional needs. The AG-DVC30 also features the newly developed Leica Dicomar 16x optical zoom lens, which provides superb image rendering in shots ranging from wide angle all the way to telephoto.The motorized zoom is silky smooth and can go from wide to tele in as fast as 1 second (for Sports applications) or as slow as 100 seconds (for dramatic work).
