The Delight Is In The Details
10x Optical Zoom
Capturing clear, detailed video of even distant subjects is no longer simply wishful thinking. The M31's 10x true optical zoom—not software-based interpolated zoom, which yields inferior results—means almost anything in view can star in your video.
Electronic Image Stabilization with GYRO-sensor
The M31 makes use of an advanced GYRO-sensor to precisely track even the slightest movements of the device, then draws on electronic image stabilization to automatically compensate, delivering steady video and crisply rendered images.
1080p Full HD
The M31 can film 1080p Full HD video. That means you can enjoy the full glory of high-definition video in your own creations—all the stunningly intricate detail, colors that seem to jump off the screen, and amazingly fluid movement.
Touch AF Lock
The M31's touch-activated auto-focus lock and a 3.5" touch screen make it simple to get perfect results. Just touch the subject in the preview screen to fix the focus, and enjoy the touch-enhanced user interface on the big beautiful display.
Face Exposure Tracking
Face exposure tracking helps you obtain great results with an often tricky subject: the human face. Just position the on-screen box around the face, then let the M31 automatically set the correct exposure level. It's the easy way to get fabulous videos of people.
Capture All The Fun In Style
Time-Lapse Recording
Want to capture an event that unfolds very slowly, but not get stuck with a huge video file where the action unfolds too slowly for an enjoyable viewing experience? Take advantage of time-lapse recording to take entrancing video of scenes like a flower blooming.
Motion Detection
The M31 can help you avoid missing any important action because you were a little tardy in pressing the record button. Just let the motion detection feature automatically begin filming the instant the subject moves, so you'll be sure everything's captured.
3 Second Pre-Recording
Often the most funniest or most dramatic moment in an event occurs right as it begins. With this feature, you won't miss it, because the three seconds of footage immediately preceding the push of the recording button are automatically stored.
Dual Stream
When you've shot some great video, it's natural to want to share it on YouTube, or watch it on an HDTV. Normally, that would mean tedious and time-consuming conversion, but dual-stream recording simultaneously creates the two versions you'll need.
Slow-Motion And Accelerated Playback
Sometimes the action in a video comes so fast-and-furious that you wish you could slow it down. With the M31's slow-motion playback, you can. You can also do the reverse, picking up the pace with smoothly accelerated playback.
