Sanyo Xacti VPC-HD1 Hard Drive Camcorder

The Sanyo VPC-HD1 brings high definition video recording to a new, compact and low-cost level. This miniature camera resembles some digital still photo cameras in its vertical layout. It has an OLED display monitor built in for new levels of power and space efficiency with increased light output and faster respones times over traditional LED displays. And this camera does not use video tape for recording but encodes with MPEG4 compression onto inexpensive SD cards (sold separately). In fact a 2 GB card will record over 40 minutes of HD video. Because the recording process uses no moving parts the card can be reused far more times than a video cassette. High quality stereo audio is recorded using AAC-LC encoding.

I purchased my HD1 at J&R. Its size and design are awesome but the HD video quality, while good is not great. Indoor video is pretty dark. There may be a way to manually make adjustments to get better video indoors but I haven't been able to figure it out yet. It's so light (weight-wise)that even... Read full review »
