Sanyo yesterday announced their new Xacti VPC-HD2000 and VPC-FH1 Dual Cameras, which are the world’s first camcorders to record in the next-gen iFrame video format - to speed up the importing, editing and sharing of recordings on your computer.
The iFrame (960 x 540) video capture mode featured on both models simplifies the process of working with recorded video on your computer, as it records in the same format used for editing. This, combined with smaller file sizes, translates into faster workflow and thanks to the use of standards-based technologies, is compatible with both PC and Mac.
Also offering 1080p Full HD recording at 60fps and shooting 8-megapixel stills, both the HD2000 and FH1 feature a Super Slow Motion capability too, which can achieve up to an impressive 600 fps to freeze fast action with stunning effects.
Also including 10x optical zoom for photos and 16x advanced zoom / 160x digital zoom for video, the HD2000 and FH1 sport Face Chaser technology to detect up to 12 faces in either stills or movies and a Sequential Photo Mode for rapid-fire photos at up to 12fps.
Despite the obvious design distinctions, the two models differ little in specs. The HD2000 has a 2.7-inch LCD, gets an HDMI interface via a cradle and sports an external microphone input - while the FH1 gets a larger 3-inch display and native HDMI. The displays on both models rotate 285 degrees.
Both the Sanyo Xacti HD2000 and Sanyo Xacti FH1 are available now from
