Quality Brings Every Moment to Life

Super LoLux

GZ-HM1 provides superior results in low light environments

by virtue of its 1/2.3” 10.62 Megapixel Back-illuminated CMOS

sensor — a type CMOS that effectively avoids loss of

incoming light because its circuitry is moved to a layer behind

the photo diodes. This increased ability to gather visual

information translates into a brighter, more detailed image.

Optical Image Stabilization System with
Advanced Image Stabilizer*

GZ-HM1 offers double the assurance of camera shake compensation.

First, its Optical Image Stabilizer (O.I.S.) uses prism technology to deliver

effective results over the entire zoom range. Added to this, the Advanced

Image Stabilizer system capitalizes on the large area of the CMOS to boost

image stability in the wide-angle range, such as when

you’re moving with the subject.

*Especially effective when shooting bright scenes at wide angle.

Real 10M Digital Stills with No Interpolation and
High-Sensitivity ISO6400

The 10.62 Megapixel CMOS also allows GZ-HM1 to shoot real

non-interpolated 10 Megapixel stills. And high-sensitivity ISO6400 enables

shake-free crisp images even for low-lit situations. Enjoy shooting pristine

digital stills with high resolution and sharp details, even if the lighting is less

than ideal.

KONICA MINOLTA HD LENS

GZ-HM1 uses a new KONICA MINOLTA HD

LENS with a 10x optical zoom, and magnifies up

to 16x* without any picture degradation thanks to

Dynamic Zoom technology.

*15x when Advanced Image Stabilizer set to ON.

High Resolution 1920x1080 Full HD Video

The camera’s 10.62 Megapixel CMOS sensor is the source of 1920x1080

Full HD AVCHD format video. The camera records at a stunning 1080 TV

lines of horizontal resolution – the theoretical maximum level of

1920x1080 Full HD.

Variety of Features for More Quality Improvement

● HD Gigabrid Premium II Engine

Enables high-speed processing of a huge amount of pixel

data to allow high quality video recording.

● 24Mbps Ultra High Quality Recording

UXP mode records at 24Mbps, the highest bit rate possible for AVCHD video to

deliver more detailed, sharper images with less noise.

● 1920x1080/60P Output

Outputs a 1080 scanning line image at progressive 60fps so

you can enjoy uncompromising picture quality on a TV that

accepts 1080P input.

● K2 Technology for High Quality Audio

Restores the sound details lost during compression to enable

high-quality audio playback that is closer to the original.
