Available in April 2009, Panasonic will bring to market, three new camcorders.
The new digital camcorders are the HDR-H80 and HDR-H90 which will use HDDs, while the SDR-S26 will rely on SD cards. The interesting feature of these camcorders has to be the high optical zoom which will be an impressive 70x.
Where you’ll find a use of such an insane amount of optical zoom is anyone’s guess, but how about some close up video of a man eating lion if you ever get a chance to go on an African lion safari.
One of the challenges with high optical zoom is the shaking that gets introduced with even the slightest hand tremor. As such, Panasonic has included advanced Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.) as well as proprietary Intelligent Auto (iA) technologies into these devices.
The Panasonic camcorders are expected to retail between $330-$450 depending upon the model selected.
