Finally, an HD Digital Camcorder Worthy of the Hype

Sanyo just released the Xacti VPC-HD1A, a new version of its VPC-HD1 camcorder. The VPC-HD1 was a hit with digital photo and video people because it records 720p footage onto memory cards - making it perfect for presentation on HDTV displays. The Xacti VPC-HD1A features a ton of upgrades that fans and consumers have been asking for: It records at 30fps in 320×240 mode and takes 16:9 stills. It also has onboard editing tools, for quick A/B deletions and easy combining of clips. This model replaces the VPC-HD1’s OLED display with a more standard 2.2″ LCD display. It’s the right camcorder for faster, easier digital sharing - perfect for video production that centers on iPods and other small media players.
