Features
The HV30 features a sophisticated image sensor and an enhanced high-definition video lens for superb images. A 10X optical zoom gives you great-looking closeups of faraway subjects. The advanced color filter processes reds, greens and blues separately for richer, more accurate colors. This cam can also record in standard-definition digital mode for videos that look great on just about any TV. Send high-definition video and digital audio to a compatible television or audio/video component through an optional HDMI cable.
