Camcorders Review
02 July 2008
Summer holidays will never be forgotten with Sony's new Full HD Handycam HDR-CX11E. It's the world's first ever camcorder to feature a Smile Shutter, a unique Sony technology that automatically captures crisp 7.6 megapixel photos when someone smiles. So there's no need to press the shutter button or interrupt the action: it's great for spontaneously capturing relaxed, happy moments while you're recording. Smile Shutter is teamed with Face Detection that automatically fine-tunes focus, exposure and colour balance for great-looking videos and photos of friends and family. Meanwhile, still images are captured in photo mode at an incredible resolution of 10.2 megapixels, rivalling today's finest digital compact cameras.
Alternatively, you can go for something out of Samsung's relatively new range of camcorders launched last December. Try the VP-HMX10C, which is compact enough to fit in the palm and is easy to use with innovative touch screens. It's been carefully designed to fit comfortably into the user's hand without sacrificing style. The unique Swivel grip can rotate an amazing 135 degrees, which provides an easy way for consumers not only to hold the camcorder but also to shoot video at very low or high angles. It delivers amazing HD picture quality resolution easily viewed on the 2.7-inch high-resolution touch panel LCD screen. It also boasts 10x optical zoom and 20x digital zoom, with a battery life of 90 minutes.
But if you want to get even closer to the action, try Canon's FS100. With a 45X Advanced Zoom, it comes in a remarkably compact, lightweight and easy to use package. Easy on power and quick to start, it is equipped with a versatile range of features to suit every shooting situation. You can share movies and photos instantly using removable memory cards and since Flash memory involves no moving parts, your precious footage is protected against bumps and knocks. With a battery that can last three hours, you don't need to worry if power is running out.
