Includes a great zoom for all those close up shots. You get smooth and steady pictures with the great imagine stabilizer. The Super Night Shot® Infrared System allows you to record color video up to 20' away in low light. “ I love the fact that you can prevents accidentally recording over previously recorded videos with the end search feature.
