Sanyo Dual Camera Xacti 720p HD VPC-CG10 Camcorder (Red)
- No Longer Available
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
