June 10, 2009 | Component, Digital Camcorder, Electronics, Gadgets, Panasonic | 3 CommentsThe 16x optical zoom Panasonic HDC-SD10 and Panasonic camcorder HDC-TM10 is supported by the Advanced OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) function – a key element to achieve zoom clear, because it minimizes the handshake that often affects the video quality while zooming. Panasonic’s Advanced O.I.S. detects and corrects hand-shake around 4,000 times per second and works with high-power optical zoom to produce clear, steady zoom shots. The new mode also extends the handshake correction range to allow the shooting of clear, crisp images while walking or moving.
