AGS - Panasonic has included a new feature on this year's 3 CCD camcorders with OIS, called AGS (the acronym is never explicitly decrypted, despite our questioning). Basically, AGS is an intelligent sensor that detects, from the camcorder's position or from a prolonged period of no motion, when a user forgets to stop recording. At this point, AGS places the camcorder in standby. This detection minimizes wastage of tape and battery charge. AGS is turned off by default but may be activated via a menu selection.
