Panasonic HM-TA1

We have decided to us the Panasonic HM-TA1; it is pocket sized and has a lightweight design which makes it very convenient to carry around to the different locations. It offers high quality shooting which enables us to take clear and defined videos for our film. It is very easy to operate which means anyone can use it. This camera has a 4x zoom which means we can get close ups of our characters and objects in a scene. The E.I.S (electrical image stabilizer) system ensures that there is the minimum amount of hand-shake which makes our film clip look even sharper. The Panasonic HM-TA1 also has an integrated USB terminal which means we can upload the videos we have taken instantly.

 

 

Tripod

We are also using a tripod with this camera as we want our scenes to be as clear and professional as possible with no hand shake visible. It also allows you to direct the camera in the direction you want it pointed in instead of being at an angle. The tripod we have chosen to use allows us to adjust its height in order to take high and low angle shots.
