Optical Image Stabilization System with Advanced Image Stabilizer*
GZ-HM1 offers double the assurance of camera shake compensation. First, its Optical Image Stabilizer (O.I.S.) uses prism technology to deliver effective results over the entire zoom range. Added to this, the Advanced Image Stabilizer system capitalizes on the large area of the CMOS to boost image stability in the wide-angle range, such as when you're moving with the subject.
- * Especially effective when shooting bright scenes at wide angle.
Super LoLux
GZ-HM1 provides superior results in low light environments by virtue of its 1/2.3" 10.62 Megapixel Back-illuminated CMOS sensor — a type CMOS that effectively avoids loss of incoming light because its circuitry is moved to a layer behind the photo diodes. This increased ability to gather visual information translates into a brighter, more detailed image.
High Resolution 1920x1080 Full HD Video
The camera's 10.62 Megapixel CMOS sensor is the source of 1920x1080 Full HD AVCHD format video. The camera records at a stunning 1080 TV lines of horizontal resolution - the theoretical maximum level of 1920x1080 Full HD.
Real 10M Digital Stills with No Interpolation and High-Sensitivity ISO6400
The 10.62 Megapixel CMOS also allows GZ-HM1 to shoot real non-interpolated 10 Megapixel stills. And high-sensitivity ISO6400 enables shake-free crisp images even for low-lit situations. Enjoy shooting pristine digital stills with high resolution and sharp details, even if the lighting is less than ideal.
Variety of Features for More Quality Improvement
HD Gigabrid Premium II Engine
Enables high-speed processing of a huge amount of pixel data to allow high quality video recording.
24Mbps Ultra High Quality Recording
UXP mode records at 24Mbps, the highest bit rate possible for AVCHD video to deliver more detailed, sharper images with less noise.
1920x1080/60P Output
Outputs a 1080 scanning line image at progressive 60fps so you can enjoy uncompromising picture quality on a TV that accepts 1080P input.
K2 Technology for High Quality Audio
Restores the sound details lost during compression to enable high-quality audio playback that is closer to the original.
Time-Lapse REC
Various unique shooting functions are equipped on GZ-HM1. Time-Lapse REC records one frame at a time at set intervals (1sec.–80sec.). So you can watch an hour-long movement in just a short amount of time when played back. It's great when you want to observe an event that takes place over a long period of time, or to record unique-looking scenes in a creative way.
60fps / 5.7 Megapixel Motor Drive Shooting (up to 11 images)
GZ-HM1 offers high-speed shooting, similar to the motor drive function found in some mechanical still cameras. Up to eleven 5.7 Megapixel stills can be shot at 60 frames per second (fps)*. A great way to capture fast-paced action in high quality digital still images.
- * 30fps when Advanced Image Stabilizer set to ON.
15fps / 10 Megapixel Motor Drive Shooting (up to 6 images)
For continuous stills with even higher image quality, you can also shoot as many as six non-interpolated 10 Megapixel stills at up to 15 frames per second (fps), a speed that rivals or surpasses what's offered by typical 10 Megapixel DSLR cameras.
High-Speed Recording for Ultra-Slow Motion Playback
High-speed recording mode shoots ultra-slow motion video to capture dynamic movement that is not visible to the naked eye. Effective tool for sports technique analysis and nature studies. Three speed modes available.
Dual Mode: 5.7 Megapixel Stills While Recording Full HD Video
GZ-HM1 allows shooting of 1920x1080 Full HD video and 5.7 Megapixel stills at the same time. This way, you won't have to exit the Video mode each time you want to take still images, thereby minimizing the chances of a missed shot.
