High Definition Camcorders Debut

Sony, Canon, and Sanyo have introduced HD capable camcorders, and they look amazing.

From DCHQ - Aug 21, 2006

It has been a long time since we here at Camcorder HQ have gotten very excited about some new products, but we feel that these new high definition camcorders are going to change the face of home video recording.

We're in love with Sanyo's portable, ultra-compact Xacti HD1A, which records up to 42 minutes of high definition video onto a 2GB Secure Digital card. Its small size and superb recording quality are sure to make it a real sensation.

We've grouped together these HD models to give you the best idea of where the future of camcorders is headed.
