Variety, as they say, is the spice of life and if you're one of those crazy kids who prefers an upright form factor, then you're sure to enjoy the convenient handling of the Dual Camera Xacti 720p HD VPC-CG10 (Black) from Sanyo. Big on name, but compact in size, this camcorder fits in your hand naturally and is great for recording action like skateboarding, as well as more low-key situations, such as family gatherings.

Containing a generous 10Mp CMOS sensor for capturing high resolution stills and 1280 x 720p HD footage, the CG10 records to lightweight SD/SDHC memory cards. The combination of this easily transferable media and the MPEG4 AVC/H.264 format makes uploading all your photos and videos to social media sites, and even your iPod, a snap.

Helping you get the perfect shot would be the 3" rotating LCD, Face Chaser technology and the digital image stabilizer. Super-Fast Start-Up and a built-in flash also ensure success. Designed to be easy-to-use and budget-conscious, the CG10 is a great starter cam.

Large, 3 Inch LCD
The display flips out from the camera and rotates up to 285 degrees on an axis that allows you to take great video or still images from otherwise-difficult-to-view positions, proving to be especially useful when shooting in confined spaces
10 Megapixel Still Image Quality
In addition to HD Video (720p 30 fps) the CG10 takes amazing 10 megapixel still photos. With a 10 megapixel (effective) CMOS image sensor the still images can be interpolated to reach 12 megapixel still image quality
5x Optical Zoom
The CG10 lens provides a zooming range of F=38-190mm (35mm equivalent). Combined with the 12x digital zoom, the CG10 offers a total zooming range of 60x
12 Subject Face Chaser Technology
Recognizes up to 12 faces for videos and still pictures and optimizes focus and aperture settings to ensure all subjects are in focus
Three-Dimensional Noise Reduction (3D-DNR)
Sanyo's 3D-DNR technology offers an improvement in video clarity by reducing random signal noise
Image Stabilizer
Using a proprietary Sanyo algorithm, the CG10 automatically compensates for distracting up-and-down or side-to-side camera movement, keeping your subject steady and easy to follow. It accurately distinguishes between unintentional camera shake and deliberate camera movement. This handy feature operates in both wide-angle and telephoto modes
Sequential Photo Mode Shoots Up to 7 Frames Per Second
Take pictures like the pros with sequential shooting up to 7 fps, or a total of 14 photos (2MP)
MPEG4 AVC/H.264 Video Compression
This feature optimizes the file size and makes sharing movies on social networking sites, or e-mailing them to friends and family, even easier. In fact, the file size can be up to 25 percent smaller than that of typical MPEG-4 cameras
Easily Transfer Video and Still Images to Your Video Capable iPod
Import video and still image files directly into iTunes software and then port them to your video-capable iPod. Share your latest masterpiece with friends and family
Record Over 5 Hours of Full Motion Video
Using a 16GB SDHC memory card users can capture over 5 hours and 43 minutes worth of video in standard definition or approximately 3 hours and 51 minutes in HD video mode
Capture Still Images While You Shoot Video
The CG10 enables simultaneous shooting of video clips and still images with a simple press of the shutter button during the shooting of a movie clip. You will never need to miss another precious photo opportunity. (Depending on the mode used to take still images, simultaneous video clip shooting may be interrupted. While shooting video clips, using the digital image stabilizer may change the angle of view for still images)
Super-Fast Start-Up
Reduce your chance of missing the perfect shot. The Dual Camera Xacti CG10 is designed for super fast start-up and shooting. With its tapeless design, the CG10 eliminates the need to queue up a video tape, allowing it to begin shooting in as little as 1.7 seconds! When the CG10 is powered on, closing the LCD display puts it in standby mode. Simply open the display and the CG10 automatically powers up and can begin immediately recording in as little as 1.7 seconds
Includes a High-Capacity Sanyo Brand Lithium-Ion Battery
The DB-L80 is a high capacity battery designed to work with the Sanyo Xacti CG10 camera and delivers approximately 70 minutes of video record time. High-energy density design minimizes the battery size and weight, making it perfect for use in the Sanyo Dual Camera Xacti CG10. The DB-L80 is designed to resist memory accumulation so it provides a full charge every time
Easy Playback of Recorded Video Directly On a TV
Connect the CG10 to a DVD/VCR Recorder, or to a computer, to back-up copies of recorded content. Still images and video clips are played back continuously and in chronological order. When connected to a PC, simple drag-and-drop operation makes it easy to save recorded video clips and still images onto a computer's hard disk for emailing, editing or archiving
NTSC/PAL Switchable
Features a switchable NTSC/PAL output for watching recorded video directly from the camcorder on your NTSC or PAL analog television

I have bought the CG-10 [...]I HAVE reserched this camcorder and similar items prior to placing my order, so i was very familiar with it's features when i received it. After charging the battery it was up and running flawlessly.Here is what i like about this camera: 1. Small, compact size, in attractice stylish shiny black nd design.2. Easy pistol shaped grip, although new to me, grew on me very fast.3. It fits in my pocket, and is up in 1.6 seconds from the moment you flip the view screen.4. Beuatiful bright 3 inches lcd screen, great vibrant colors.5. Easy set up, menu is really intuitive. those who complained about the manual and the difficulty of set up probably have handeled very few electronic pieces in their entire life. if you know how to read and have a basic understanding of photopgrapy, the set up is a breeze. if in doubt, always choose auto mode.6. Battery life is really good for the size. i bought 2 replacement batteries on [...]I placed a 16 GB SDHC MEMORY CARD, A-DATA, (FOR 29.909 FROM [...]). WORKS FLAWLESSLY.8. Zooming is powerful 5 x, and can activate the digital zoom also. not bad at all.9. Easely connects to computer via supplied proprietary usb cable. or you can take out the sd/sdhc card and palce it in the computer memory reader.10. Picture quality in video mode is really amazing, clear and 720 p hd. I connected the camera to my 50 inches screen samsung hdtv plasma, the video quality was amazing,..11. Takes picture, WHILE FILMING TOO, still photo, can go up to 12 mp, I sat mine at 10 mp, the quality is acceptable on general scale.13. Has an attachable protective lens cap, easy to put on/off. I read some people who have complained on how to put it and attach it, it honestly took my 20 seconds or less to get it done. just use your immagination to tie it together.13. Imgae stabilization is above average for the camera,. honestly unless you have parkinson's disease or inflicted with essential tremor, the picture is really stable and does not make you need meclizine for vertigo,.. 14. Easy to use buttons on the back, big enough but not too big. has a small joy stick that makes navigation a breeze. what i dislike: for the price, really nothing. all in all it is an excellent buy,.. i am using it more then my 1080 xacti fd 100. it is all about portability.Hope you found my revieww of this little gem helpfulPallpoul

I selected the Xacti over the Flip or clones because I wanted the 5x optical zoom none of the flip-like cameras have.

The quality of the photos and video is acceptable. But some of the features-- not so. Most disappointing, the image on screen is virtually invisible in bright sunlight. I just returned from the beach and had to guess that I was pointing the camera at the object I wanted to shoot. The controls are also less than intuitive. Having used digital cameras for over 10 years and a variety of video camera for 25 years, I shouldn't need to consult the instruction manual so often to simply shoot a video or a snapshot. Several photos I thought I snapped were not there.

Finally, a huge design flaw in the battery charger. Here we have a very lightweight, compact camera. But for the battery charger, Sanyo gives us a small light charger-- and a kludgy six foot AC cord needed to plug it in. I would have expected the charger to have fold out prongs, like my Canon camera charger. Instead, to take the Xacti on a trip, one can't just put the little camera and charger into a small carry pouch. One needs a sizable bag to hold the thick and relatively bulky power cord. If I had known before I ordered, that would have been a deal breaker. What were they thinking????

    Comments about Sanyo Dual Camera Xacti 720p HD VPC-CG10 Camcorder (Black):

    I have this camcorder for about a month, seldom used it. All of a sudden all the buttons stopped working. All!!! Oh, no, sorry. Playback button "works" - recalls all pictures to the screen and nothing after that.
    Battery is full, LCD lights up, nothing works. Can't go to settings, can't switch from photo to video, can't shoot, can't move between pics in playback. And B&H doesn't provide any warranty (according to the sale slip).

      Comments about Sanyo Dual Camera Xacti 720p HD VPC-CG10 Camcorder (Black):

      If you are looking for a low cost high quality camcorder, then this is the one. Even though it is advertised as dual camera, the photo quality is bad and I would probably use only when I do not have my regular photo camera handy. The video quality is 720p with very good color contrast and picture quality and 5x zoom which is decent. I played it on my 1080p sony hd tv and the quality is very very good. Very light weight and easy to carry on day to day tasks or leave it in the bag and you won't notice the weight. The shape is well known for its grip. I used a 4-class and a 6-class sd card and both have equal un-noticeable performance. An extra battery would be good when you are outdoor. The only reason I have given the 4 stars (****) is because, it lacks the image stabilization. I am using the image stabilization software when necessary.

      Didn't want to invest hundreds of dollars into a digital video camera but wanted something other than my point-and-shoot to take high def. video with. This camera is that. It's compact, easy to use, has a surprising amount of features and settings and had a great price tag. The still images are ok in bright light, but low-light performance is iffy.

              For the price, this camera has great video and sound. As a teacher in training, I use it to record myself teaching, and it does a good job getting my voice and my students' voices, and the picture quality is good, even at the "blogging" resolution.
              My main complaint is that I'd love to plug it into the wall and let it run all day, and that's not possible with this camera -- it only runs on (rechargable) batteries, which only last 70 minutes. So I'm constantly swapping out batteries between classes, which is unfortunate.

              I bought this camcorder just in time for the birth of my son. The best thing about it is its size. You can bring it anywhere without people noticing that you are carrying a camcorder.
              The power turns on the moment you unfold the LCD screen and you can start shooting.
              The only downside is its performance under low light. Once you start using ISO 400 for videos, noise is already noticeable. But for family use and posting on the web, it doesn't bother me at all.

              I use this camera for capturing live performances in both studio and live club situations.
              In clearly lit settings, this camera delivers quality video. Image sharpness decreases in low light but easily compensated with a flood lamp. Audio quality is clear stereo with nearly transparent compression in high volume situations.
              Still shots are very clear with crisp resolution. A steady hand or tripod is recommended for low light shots without the flash, but that's par.
              An overall excellent camera for web videos, everyday on the fly shooting and low budget movie making with adequate lighting.
              Things I would improve: needs a built-in video light and a wider lens.

                Very happy for the price/performance, i bought 2 extra Sanyo batteries because they won't last long after continuous use, besides i also bought a 16 gB card, so the total package complements nicely

                  I use this for recording all my kids activities: piano, guitar and speech presentations. The sound quality is very good, the picture is much better than my 5 year old DV camcorder. Lots of features help to maximize the results. The file format works well with our Mac computers and iPods. The compact size yet nice LCD monitor are a plus.

                  I bought this camera after a fair degree of research and was fully aware of reviewer feedback on this product. Camera is well priced for good quality video with a 5x optical zoom.

                  Seeing how quickly technology has been speeding along, I did not feel that spending hundreds on a video camera makes sense.

                  With this camera you can have good HD quality video today and still have money to spare for the next generation of video camera in a couple of years.

                  Sure it's a little slow, and the menu settings are at times inconveniently buried, but it's only [$]. I love it's size, audio, and video quality. I wish it had... everything a $3,000 cam has, but it doesn't because it's [$] and worth every penny. I choose to save my $$, get it and see if it would do what I needed. Macro focus is great too.

                      Great value for the price range and level of product.

                      Video and picture quality is well worth the price range and ease of use with the perfect amount of features.

                      Wish the camera came with a bag or storage device of some sort, even an inexpensive one.
