DESC: Product Description With a 1.8" hard disk drive built-in its lightweight compactness is not constrained by the size of videocassette or disc media nor does it require a space-consuming loading mechanism. The redesigned image processor for Everio G series incorporates 6 digital noise reduction systems to improve the S/N ratio by about 30% (3dB) over previous models. The integrated MPEG-2 encoder features circuitry that reduces the block noise and mosquito noise that can occur with digital video recording formats.
