CMOS Sensor for Full-HD Movies

Full-HD recording with even higher quality has been achieved by a new pixel alignment method that produces more than twice the amount of information as required by the 1920 x 1080-pixel full-HD specification. With a larger area for each individual pixel in comparison with conventional image sensors, the new CMOS sensor captures much more light and records with greater sensitivity. Thanks to its low noise level, it also produces smearless images. This combines with a wider dynamic range to provide richer, more natural gradations. Still images with 4-megapixel resolution also benefit from this higher sensitivity.
   
Newly Developed High-Speed Processor for Improved Image Quality

We have improved color reproduction and low-light shooting quality by increasing the amount of video data captured. This was achieved by altering the algorithm for the video compression codec; by optimizing the gamma characteristics, noise reduction, and other signal-processing components; and by increasing the bit rate from 12 to 14 Mbps. Images are processed using advanced MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 image compression technology. The new high-speed processor also speeds up the processing of high-volume full-HD data. This allows you to record approximately 37 minutes*1 of full-HD footage on a 4 GB SDHC memory card. In addition, single-chip integration contributes to the HD1010’s low power consumption and compact size. And by adding a new 1920 x 1080 30 fps*2 shooting mode, we have made it even easier for your PC to handle full-HD video.
