 Panasonic PV GS500 camcorder : Building on the success of last year’s highly-acclaimed 3CCD camcorders, Panasonic this year introduces a new 3CCD model with more advanced features and affordable price points. The new Panasonic PV-GS500 incorporates the same type of 3CCD imaging system used in Panasonic’s professional broadcast equipment, resulting in 540 lines of breathtaking resolution. Individual CCDs are used to capture the red, green and blue colors that compose an image for vivid, true-to-life pictures with remarkable color reproduction. “This year’s line offers the advantages of 3CCD technology starting with a suggested retail price of $999.95,” said Rudy Vitti, national marketing manager, Panasonic Optical Group.
