Panasonic SDR-S15 Compact SD Card Standard Definition Camcorder

Small size. Sleek looks. Casual shooting fun.
Small enough to fit in a pocket or bag. Cool enough to take everywhere you go. This is one stylish camcorder you'll never want to be without.

It's easy with iA!
In iA mode, the S15 detects the shooting situation and automatically activates the functions - such as Face Detection and Intelligent Scene Selector - that will deliver the optimal results.

Easy shooting at high or low angles with the Sub Rec Button
You can freely adjust the angle of the LCD monitor for comfortable viewing no matter how you're holding the camera. The Sub Rec button on the side makes it easy to shoot when you're holding the camera low. The buttons are laid out simply and logically for easy one-hand operation.

For easy, intiuitive setting and shooting without taking your eyes off the subject, there's One-Touch Navigation
With One-Touch Navigation, just press the center of the joystick to display an operating menu. The operations you use most often are right on the monitor, so it's easy to change settings or operate the camera without looking away from your subject.

Mode Dial
Just turn the dial and you're ready to shoot or to view the images afterward. Just rotate the dial with your fingertip to select the icon that corresponds to the mode you want.
