screen HDTV.

Moreover, the camcorder has an advanced uploading feature. With the exclusive built-in YouTube Direct application, you can upload the videos captured by the camcorder to YouTube more effortlessly .

ISO sensitivity and color balance can either be adjusted automatically or changed manually. A 10x digital zoom helps you to control over the movies and pictures you take.
