I was so wonder why panasonic can made GS200K just 2/3 both weight and size from GS100, As the product specification the image stabilizer and LCD panel size seems the major different between two camera. I will believe they may using the same optical module with 3x1/6 inch,800K CCD and a F1.6 LEICA DICOMAR 10x zoom lens. Who have more detail information of them?

Here are some things found on the GS100 that are not on the GS200.

Optical Image Stabilization
Quality 16:9 mode
Frame mode
ProCinema*
Individual color and sharpness settings
Zebra stripes and color bars
Manual audio

There are probably more differences but I havene't had my morning caffeine yet!



* Pro Cinema combines frame mode, high quality 16:9, and cine-like gamma.

The NTSC GS200 has 440K video effective CCD pixels; the NTSC GS100 has 640K, from what I can recall. So there's a difference of 200,000 video effective pixels, which is nothing to sneeze about. :-))
