Sharp Viewcam VL-NZ50 ... entry-level digital camcorder with an iLink PC interface and full on-screen information. The on-screen displays for battery level and amount of tape remaining allow the operator to devote full attention to filming without the distraction of monitoring battery strength and time remaining on the tape. The 10x optical lens provides the best picture quality and the digital 300x zoom allows images to be captured at distance. Digital Image Stabilization compensates for image shake when a tripod is not used improving the quality of the video. I-Link digital port serves to transfer full motion video and sound to a PC equipped with an I-Link port for video editing on a PC. The built-in speaker allows on-the-spot playback with sound for checking and for viewing video footage anywhere. Both gain up and backlight compensation correct the exposure in poor lighting conditions to easily capture the best picture possible. An on screen recording guide helps the user line-up landscape footage and can be used as a guide for the safe zone or center of lens for easy framing of subject matter. Digital Picture Effects allow different digital effects (B&W, Sepia, NEG) to be viewed without affecting the original recording and to your video a custom edited look.
