Panasonic PV-GS65 Mini DV Camcorder

Picture perfect, in the palm of your hand. Thanks to its 3CCD system, the compact Panasonic PVGS65 digital camcorder delivers moving and still images in exceptional color, detail, and gradation. Use the color viewfinder or 2.5" diagonal LCD screen to find the shot you're looking for; then zero in with 10X optical zoom. You can even snap still shots while recording a moving picture, without changing recording modes.
