Snapshots are more fun to take when using one of the CG65's filter modes.

The high-speed shutter captures 

fast-moving subjects.

By simply selecting a photo mode, beautiful, fun pictures can be taken 

according to set photographic parameters.

The subject stands out against a 

deemphasized background to 

enhance the portrait atmosphere.

The entire image is brought into 

sharp focus.

Subjects come out clear against a 

nighttime backdrop.

Beautiful pictures can be taken in the snow and on the beach without suffering from white-out.

Fireworks are captured in all their 

vivid brightness.

Pictures taken under minimal lighting 

such as lamps come out beautifully.

Skin comes out beautifully in close-

ups of people.

Pictures have the atmosphere of a 

black-and-white photo.

Sepia tone creates a nostalgic look.

Weighing in at just 67.7 x 100.3 x 34.5 mm (W x H x D) in size and 150 g in weight 

(body only), the CG65 can be easily carried anywhere and pictures can be taken 

on a whim anytime. This portable digital movie 

camera is designed to go with you everywhere all 

the time. It is styled to a casual form with an 

active flare and is well balanced to enable 

picture-taking with one hand. The vertical body 

lets users retain a natural posture in recording 

without stressing the wrist or shaking.

While recording video clip footage, still pictures can be taken by simply

pressing the shutter button. The CG65 can 

simultaneously record VGA-size (640 x 480) 

video clips and 6M stills. While recording 

video clips, memories of a special moment 

can be preserved forever without missing 

that golden opportunity to capture it as a still 

picture image.

Advanced 9-pixel mixing technology enables 

bright pictures of noise-free definition (Auto 

mode) even in under-lit scenes, for example at 

dusk. In the Lamp mode, users get a minimum 

subject illumination of approx. 2 lux, sufficient 

enough sensitivity to enable recording by 

candlelight.

•PictBridge support for printing without a PC

•Sharp prints that bring out the performance of a digital camera

In still picture-taking, a "blur-resistant" system accurately detects the direction 

and amount of camera shake via a built-in gyro sensor. It then cancels out the 

blurred component of the captured image to create a sharp, well-defined 

picture. For movie recording, the CG65 incorporates a digital image stabilizer 

capable of accurately discerning camera shake that can be interpreted as 

intended camera work and deliberate panning and tilting. It corrects unwanted 

shake without sacrificing the natural feel of recorded clips. High-quality 6M 

pictures can be taken at ISO1600. Even with shots that blur easily such as 

indoor or nighttime pictures and scenes where you do not want to use a flash, 

shake correction yields more natural-looking colors and expressions.

The CG65's red-eye correction feature lets you easily correct red-eye 

caused by the flash, restoring the natural color of your subject's eyes.

Using motion detection technology developed by SANYO, images recorded 

at 30 fps can be converted to intermediate images for output to TV at 60 

fps. This minimizes the jerky lag that tends to occur with extended 

horizontal or vertical panning, keeping images played back on TV smooth.

Using the 9-Image Display Function feature, users can quickly search for 

specific images. And the Slideshow feature enables images to be played 

back continuously, while Art Mode can be used to add a little fun to image 

playback. Moreover, movies can be easily edited using the camera itself. 

Another great feature is the time bar, which serves as a visual tool to make 

it easier to splice multiple scenes together or cut unwanted images from 

clips. It also helps to effectively use SD memory card capacity and can be 

used to extract still frames from movies.

Images can be captured immediately after opening the LCD monitor, so you 

should never miss photo opportunities again. Digital recording eliminates 

any winding associated with tapes, making it possible to take or view 

images in an instant whenever you want.

An original algorithm utilizing a pixel interpolation filter converts images 

collected by the 6M into a recording equivalent of 10M (3680 x 2760). Prints as 

large as A3 can be made, or specific parts of the image can be enlarged for 

detailed printing.

The CG65 features focusing on 16 levels and exposure correction of 

±1.8 

EV in 0.3 EV steps. Users can freely adjust picture quality (sharpness and 

saturation) to suit the scene.

A large 2.5-inch TFT LCD monitor is built into the 

CG65's compact body. The large screen makes it 

easier to see and confirm images before and after 

taking the picture. The monitor itself can rotate 

approximately 290

°, so it can be positioned to the 

user's preferred shooting posture whether at a 

high/low angle and even turned to see oneself.

The CG65 incorporates a Super Macro mode 

that enables users to get within 1 cm of 

subjects when the lens is set to the wide-

angle end. Magnificent close-ups can be 

taken to capture tiny objects in sharp detail.

I can really see myself getting better every day (even if I do say so myself !). 

This arrangement is a really good one, so I'm uploading some pictures. 

Let me know what you think!

These days have been one lesson after another. Today I had Japanese dance and - wait for it - archery! 

There is much that is beautiful to be found in Japanese tradition. 

Since video doesn't take much space when you film it with the Xacti, 

I'm uploading some videos for you to enjoy!

The CG65 adopts the highly efficient MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format for movie 

compression, so file sizes are more manageable. This greatly expands movie 

reach to posting on websites and blogs, video-sharing and podcasting. 

Moreover, there is no need to convert the file formats of videos recorded on the 

CG65 for uploading to websites or playback on video-supporting iPods. Simply 

drag and drop your files, and you're ready to go. The CG65 makes it easy to 

create beautiful video and still images in a variety of settings. Experience how 

the fun of visual-heavy blogging is virtually unlimited as movie clips can be used 

for photo journals, travel logs, chronicling the growth of a pet, or documenting 

plants and flowers. For not only still images but also video, the CG65 will turn 

you into a more active and accustomed user of the internet via SNS, blogs, 

video-sharing sites, and more.

The CG65 incorporates a high performance 5x optical zoom lens with a 

maximum aperture of F3.5, allowing distant subjects and people to be captured 

in beautiful quality. Coupled with the camera's 12x 

digital zoom, users can capitalize 

on a maximum 60x 

zooming.
