The HDC-SD5 captures video on the AVCHD format with 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution. It uses the 3CCD camera system to record videos with clear images and true-to-life colors. It is also equipped with the advanced O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) which minimizes camera shake, done by trembling hands, and delivers crisp, clear images. Its Leica Dicomar lens provides 12 lens elements in eight groups, and uses low-dispersion optical glass to reduce color blur. With a special multi-coating process is applied to the lens, chromatic aberration is minimized so images are crisp, clear, and free of flare and glare. The HDC-SD5 also feature the new intelligent contrast control which measures ambient lighting and adjust the contrast as it changes.
