Descriptionback to top
The Panasonic PV-GS80 digital video camcorder is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, but is not short on innovative features. The compact PV-GS80 incorporates the most powerful optical zoom available -- 32x. This camcorder allows you to be up close no matter how far way you may be. Among the other innovative features included on the PV-GS80 is the easy to use one-touch navigation. A joystick allows easy navigation of the controls using the thumb only.

The PV-GS80 was developed to maximize the quality of the video recording by concentrating on those features that you will use most often. One such feature is the image-enhancing MagicPix that creates rich videos under low-light conditions. To steady shaky video, the PV-GS80 uses Optical Image Stabilization, which intuitively compensates for any hand movement, so that every shot if beautifully crisp and clear.

The PV-GS80 camcorder sports a low-height, compact design with a practical side-load mechanism for inserting and removing tapes. The PV-GS80 also features DV output (firewire) for easy digital connection to compatible PCs or digital video editing equipment; color viewfinder; and true 16:9 widescreen format recording, and a 2.7" LCD.
