Features

0º, 90º, 180º - Enjoy a greater degree of flexibility with Switch Grip II

Switch Grip II

One thing lefties and righties can agree on is that the streamlined and compact QF20 / Q20 with Switch Grip II was made for both. Because no matter in which hand it’s held, the camcorder’s LCD screen will adjust to ensure that the picture is shown right-side up. More comfortable shooting while holding the camcorder vertically? Good news: you can rotate the screen 90º, and the image will remain right-side up. Shooting video from difficult positions has never been easier.

Make art out of time

Art Time-lapse Recording

Capture an event that takes place over the course of hours such the sun rising and setting and present it in a fraction of the time. Art Time-Lapse Recording captures still frames at preset intervals, then creates an HD file with the stills placed in sequential order. A variety of modes, including Night Time, Zooming, Panning and Reverse Playback, give you more creative options.

Record Pause

While shooting a video in Record Pause mode, it allows you to briefly pause the recording and then pick up right where you left off without creating a new file. This way you only have one file to work with and don’t have to merge files for editing, sharing or transferring.

Shake It

Next time you record a get-together, add some fun with Shake It. Just a couple of jostles of the camcorder can randomly add one of several different fun and artistic digital effects to a scene. Shake It even works in Playback Mode, when it will embed preloaded music into your clip.

2.7” Smart Touch LCD

Change the way you look at things with the 2.7" QVGA Touch LCD (230k resolution). The large screen delivers clean, crisp images that are saturated with natural colour and deep, dynamic detail. And the size also makes the touchscreen easier to use to find the feature or content you’re looking for.

4.9M Still Photo
