The high-powered 16x optical zoom clearly captures even distant subjects, while the Advanced O.I.S. minimises blurring. This stabilization function is essential for preserving full-HD image quality when zooming, where hand-shake increases proportionally to the level of magnification. Advanced O.I.S., which detects and corrects for hand-shake around 4,000 times per second, combines with the 16x optical zoom to produce clear, stable zoom shots. And because the function is optical, there's minimal loss of image quality.

Panasonic's Advanced O.I.S. helps suppress the effects of hand-shake as you shoot, for both motion and still images. The new Active mode also extends the hand-shake correction range to allow shooting while walking or otherwise moving. Its powerful corrective effect reduces the kind of hand-shake that often occurs when shooting on the move, to ensure crisp, clear images.

The HDC-TM10 features the iA (Intelligent Auto) function, which automatically activates several convenient shooting functions. These include the AF/AE Tracking, which automatically tracks a moving subject for consistently beautiful results. Once you touch a selected subject on the touch-screen and lock onto the subject, AF/AE Tracking maintains the focus and exposure even if the subject moves or turns to one side. This records the subject with the optimal AF/AE (Auto focus/Auto exposure) settings.

The HDC-TM10 records full-HD images onto the 8GB built-in memory or an SDHC/SD Memory Card (optional)*, and features a Relay Recording function. When the built-in memory being used to record images becomes full, this function automatically switches the recording media to the optional SDHC/SD Memory Card to provide uninterrupted recording. It enables you to shoot for up to 15 hours** in HE mode when using a separately purchased 32GB SDHC Memory Card. * Inclusion of an SDHC/SD Memory Card varies by market. ** Approximate figure.
