The PV-DV400 delivers high resolution digital video that is so sharp, it must be seen to be believed. But that is just the beginning. It also features an 18X optical zoom lens, digital effects, i.LINK and serial interfaces, 3-inch color LCD monitor and color viewfinder, removable 8MB MultiMedia card, and an IR filter that allow recording in near total darkness.

Tilt it down for high angle overhead shooting in crowds, tilt it up for low-angle shots or tilt it forward for self-portraits. With the built-in speaker, you can play back and watch your entire recording ins...
