FUJINON Professional Optical Zoom Lens
The GZ-HD7 utilises a lens designed for high definition by FUJINON. FUJINON is the leader in professional camera lens for live HD images. This lens features 3 aspherical elements and provides nearly the same brightness (F1.8-1.9) throughout its zoom range. In addition, the lens surface is coated with a new Electronic Beam Coating (EBC) that greatly reduces degradation caused by light reflecting off the lens surfaces, leading to greater light transmission and reduced flaring and ghosting.

The Leader in Professional HD Optics

Three 1/5" Progressive Scan CCDs with Pixel Shift Technology
For bright, realistic colours the HD Everio uses three 1/5-inch CCDs – one each for red, green and blue. Naturally, by having dedicated CCDs for each primary colour, the camera is able to gather the maximum visual information which leads to more realistic colour reproduction and presence. Using Pixel Shift Technology, the Red and Blue pixel locations are shifted relative to Green, allowing the sampled colour information to be quadrupled through interpolation.
