Colour Night View with Light Panel  
Enjoy lifelike images with vivid colours  
Pure Colour Engine  
Leave the light off. Colour Night View gives you images with colour even in dim  
lighting (1 lux). By using the LCD as a light panel, you can also record colour  
images in conditions of complete darkness (0 lux).  
GS55 GS15 GS11  
The Pure Colour Engine LSI converts the CCD output  
0 Lux Colour Night View with Light Panel  
Colour Night View  
signal from a complementary colour filter into an RGB  
signal (containing the three primary colours in light) at  
an early stage and extracts the low-frequency luminance  
component from the RGB signal. The luminance signal is  
then generated in the same way as in TV broadcasting.  
This innovative LSI achieves virtually the same superb  
colour reproduction as a 3CCD camera system.

Enjoy remarkable 24x zoom magnification in a camera  
that's small enough to take anywhere. This lens is not  
only the most powerful zoom offered in a home-use  
digital video camera, it also features low distortion.  
And because the zoom is optical, it captures both  
moving pictures and still with exquisite beauty.

Progressive Photoshot captures the image and temporarily stores it into two sepa-

with no time lag, eliminating the need for simulations. This results in 1.5 times the  
resolution of standard-recorded stills on a SD Memory Card (GS200/GS120/GS55/  
GS15) or tape (GS33/GS11) for beautifully clear and brilliant pictures.

Because DVD camcorders use a completely non-contact method to record and  
play, repeated playback doesn't degrade image quality like it can with videotape.  
Important images and videos can be kept for years with no loss of image quality.  
Plus, DVD-RAM discs can also be rewritten approximately 100,000 times, making  
them an economical and ideal choice for repeated recording.  
When recording to DVD-RAM discs, models VDR-M70 and VDR-M50 automatically  
search for a blank section on the disc. All you need to do is press the button to  
start recording. There’s no need to worry about accidentally recording over  
previously recorded material.  
*Possible only with the 8 cm DVD-RAM disc.  
Recorded scenes are displayed as thumbnails —  
go right to the one you want  
Quick Search & Access with Disc Navigator  
Unlike videotape, you don’t need to rewind or fast-forward a DVD disc to search  
for specific scenes. The camcorder’s LCD screen displays a list of the recorded  
scenes for quick and easy searching.
