In addition the digital zoom interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms. * Professional Quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lenso Carl Zeiss lenses have an advanced optical multi-layer coating that offers less glare and flare with increased contrast. This results in vivid image brilliance, true-to-life color saturation, and perfect renditions of subtle tones. * 2.5" Touch Panel SwivelScreen LCD Display (123K Pixels)o The touch panel screen provides excellent viewing clarity with improved resolution. The high resolution 123K pixel LCD screen rotates up to 270 degrees for multiple viewing angles providing sharp, detailed images for monitoring or playback. * InfoLithium Battery with AccuPower Meter Systemo Charge the battery at anytime because unlike NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) batteries, Sony's rechargeable lithium ion batteries are not subject to a life shortening "memory effect." The exclusive AccuPower meter displays the battery time remaining in minutes, in either the viewfinder or on the LCD screen. * NightShot Plus Infrared Systemo With NightShot Plus Infrared System you can capture natural looking video, even when shooting in low light. Record subjects up to 10 feet away using the built-in infrared system, but without the overall monochrome color common with earlier low-light recording systems.* Stamina Battery Power Management Systemo Using the optional NP-FH1000 InfoLithium battery, the DCR-HC28 can continuously record for up to 14 hours (viewfinder) or up to 12 hours (LCD) on a single full charge, providing extra long battery life.* Program AE (Auto Exposure) Modeso Program AE modes make recording easy even when filming in challenging situations.o Choose from beach & ski, landscape, portrait, sports lesson, spotlight or sunset & moon modes. * Picture Effectso Get creative when recording or playing back your videos with Picture Effect modes. Effects available in camera mode: mosaic and pastel. The effects available in playback mode: monotone, negative art, sepia and solarize. * Fader Effectso Enhance your personal videos by adding professional looking fader effects. Choose from black, mosaic, monotone and white. * Battery Informationo At the touch of a button, battery information is displayed on the LCD screen when charging and when the camcorder is turned off. The display will show how much the battery is charged, in 10% increments and the recordable time left when using the LCD screen or in the viewfinder. * Manual Focuso With manual focus, you can manually adjust the focus of the camcorder using the touch panel. Manual focusing also allows you to control the focus in difficult situations where either the environment or the subject does not allow the camcorder's auto focus to perform optimally, such as when shooting through a window or in a crowded environment. * Easy Handycam Buttono Using a camcorder can be intimidating for some people, so with a press of the Easy Handycam button, most of the advanced features of the camcorder are “locked out" leaving only the buttons essential for recording operational. * Picture Motion Browsero Easily organize still images and video, and turn them into stunning music videos using the supplied software.
