Description: Unlike many camcorders, the PV-L552H is VHS format, so your recordings can easily be played in any VCR. Since VHS-C Palmcorder MultiCam Camcorders have video heads that are same size as the video heads of most VCR decks, you get a crisp, steady playback.The 26x Hi-Definition Zoom acts like a telescope to produce extraordinary close-up shots, superior in clarity to those provided by a digital zoom, so you won't miss a single detail. After the highest optical zoom setting is reached, the digital zoom automatically takes over, magnifying the image by blowing up the pixels to give you an incredibly close shot. The PV-L552H features 780x DZ.The PV-L552H comes with a bilingual on-screen display that lets you see the on-screen commands in English or Spanish. It is equipped with a 2.5-inch diagonal LCD screen that delivers a brilliantly clear picture in full, vivid color. And since the screen rotates 270?, it lets you comfortably hold the camcorder at many different angles while you record. Plus, with a built-in speaker, you can check your finished recordings right on location by playing them back on the LCD screen.Completely drains the battery charge before recharging takes place, resulting in a full recharge of your battery. To save battery power during recording and playback, the PV-L552H features a color viewfinder that can be used instead of the LCD.Programmed Recording lets you program your camcorder to start and stop recording for either 10, 20, 30 minutes or until the tape ends. MotionSensor is a simple home monitoring feature that causes the camcorder to start recording within seconds of perceiving motion, and stop 30 seconds after motion ceases. The date and time are automatically recorded on the tape as an added benefit.Digital EIS is a unique idea that helps compensate for unintentional hand and/or camcorder movement. It even reduces unwanted jitter from recordings made in a car, or while walking.The extra light automatically powers on when needed, to improve overall picture quality and color rendition in low light settings. It's perfect for video and with the PhotoShot Built-in Digital Still Camera function. Minimize
