Panasonic AG-DVC30 Brochure & Specs page 7

Focus Assist with One-Push Zoom
When a user button is assigned the PUSH AF+ZOOM function and
the AG-DVC30 is in Auto Focus, the camera will continue to zoom as long
as you hold the button down, then return to the original zoom position
when you release it. This helps you zoom and focus more quickly in
manual shooting mode.
Four Scene Files
The AG-DVC30 can save four sets of camera settings as "scene files" for
instant recall later in similar shooting conditions. Scene files 1 and 2 are
freely settable. Files 3 and 4 are preset (see list below), but you can change
the values as desired.
1 SCENE 1: User setting (standard values)
2 SCENE 2: User setting (standard values)
3 B.PRESS: For sharper contrast in dark portions
4 MOVIE-LIKE: Movie Simulation Mode
Shooting Support Functions
•Backlight correction: Backlighting compensation can be assigned to a
user button for instant results.
•AE Lock: Locks the subject brightness; can be assigned to a user button.
•Zebra: Displays an overexposure warning on the viewfinder and monitor
•Marker: Detects and displays the Video Brightness level in a very useful,
repeatable numerical value.
•Mode check: Displays the camera settings on the viewfinder and monitor,
for easy checking before you shoot.
•Zoom position: Displays the zoom position as a repeatable, numerical
representation in the viewfinder.
3.5" Color LCD Monitor and Tilt-Up Viewfinder
The large 3.5" color LCD monitor rotates 270 degrees, making it easy to
shoot at difficult angles and the Mirror mode makes it easy to record
yourself. The display is bright too, so even outdoors you get good visibility
when using the LCD to monitor footage or select settings from the menu.
For added ease of use when taking low-angle shots, you also can tilt the
viewfinder 70 degrees upward.
Precise Balance
The grip conforms neatly to the hand and is positioned at the camera's
center of gravity for perfect balance. This, plus the AG-DVC30's light
weight — approximately 2.2 lb (1 kg) — makes it easy to frame shots and
shoot without fatigue.
