Panasonic Palmcorder® PV-DV53 Mini DV Camcorder
 
   

Product Description

 
Compact and versatile, the PV-DV53 Digital PalmCorder from Panasonic offers features that produce high quality videos and stills. This camcorder is designed for those who want point-and-shoot simplicity without limiting their ability to take command when they want to. It offers several shooting options, digital effects, and quick and easy connection to a computer. The progressive PhotoShot? mode eliminates fuzziness by digitally capturing the image data of a singular moment, and temporarily storing it in two field memories. The two images are then combined to produce a better quality picture. Dual Digital Electronic Image Stabilization (D-EIS) compensates for unintentional hand and camcorder movement when recording. When used in playback mode, this feature helps reduce jitter in previously recorded videos.

Date of Review:  Jun 15, 2004
Review: The Panasonic PV-DV53 is middle size camcorder. The main advantage is 1 / 4 inch CCD. Most of the modern mini DV camcorders have 1 / 6 inch CCDs. Size of CCD is the main factor for low light performance. Video quality is good even in low light...
