On a conventional digital camera, the low luminance of the LCD makes images hard to see in strong light. The Viewcam Z solves this problem at a stroke. Its high transmissive advanced system LCD (incorporating innovative CG silicon technology) achieves high luminance and high definition, even under bright sunlight.

Don't worry if the action is taking place far away from where you are. You can catch it all - in vivid detail - with the Viewcam Z's powerful 10x optical and 500x digital zooms. Two handy modes make it easier than ever to film at night. The Slow Shutter Mode is perfect for capturing slow-moving or stable images. And the Night Lumi Mode adjusts the aperture to shoot bright objects in the dark.

It is one of the cheapest Mini DV camcorders on the market yet still boasts a fairly high spec. The camcorder is extremely easy to use. You will be shooting in just a couple of minutes. It really is child's play to record and playback. I was very impressed with the quality of recorded footage - the fact the camcorder is Mini DV format obviously helps this. The quality is easily as good as other digital camcorders at twice or three times the price. There are some very useful features like digital ...
