Getting to Know Your Camcorder
Overview
The camcorder equipped a 5 Mega Pixel sensor that can take H.264 format videos. The H.264 technology
allows for extended video recording with less memory. High quality images up to 16 mega-pixels can
also be delivered smoothly. With a color LCD monitor, you can view and examine the videos and photos
easily.
This compact camcorder also features video recording at HD resolution of 1920x1080. You can also
connect it to an HDTV via an HDMI cable, and easily playback the recorded high-denition videos on
the wide screen HDTV.
Moreover, the camcorder has an advanced uploading feature. With the exclusive built-in CAMILEO
UPLOADER application, you can upload the videos or photos captured by the camcorder to Internet
more effortlessly.
ISO sensitivity and color balance can either be adjusted automatically or changed manually. A 16x digital
zoom helps you to control over the videos and photos you take.
The built-in memory allows you to take photos and to record videos without a memory card. The memory
card slot allows users to increase the storage capacity.
