Gift Tip 27: Sanyo VPC-HD2000A Dual Camera Supporting Apple's iFrame

Dec 2 2009, 8:00pm CST | by Luigi Lugmayr

The Sanyo VPC-HD2000A Dual Camera is the world’s first camcorder that is compatible with iFrame. What sets the VPC-HD2000A apart is its vertical form factor. It can take stunning full 1080p High Definition video at 60fps and amazing 8-megapixel digital photos. The new iFrame video format can dramatically speed up the process of importing, editing, and sharing your videos. The Sanyo VPC-HD2000A Dual Camera delivers high performance results with multiple features normally found on much higher priced video and photo cameras.

The Sanyo VPC-HD2000A Dual Camera packs tons of features that are sure to please the most discerning user. These include 600 fps slow motion mode, face-chasing technology which automatically reads and corrects focus and lighting for up to 12 different subjects, and 16x optical zoom for video. The VPC-HD2000A is extremely portable and easy to use. Videos, still photos, and the various settings and menus can be easily accessed with the user’s thumb. The Sanyo VPC-HD2000A’s convenient design makes sharing videos and photos via social networking web sites, portable video devices like iPods, TVs and computers a breeze.

The Sanyo VPC-HD2000A packs high performance and cutting edge technology into a small, stylish, easy to use camera. It has a large 2.7” LCD display, which 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 difficult positions. With an 8-megapixel CMOS image sensor the still images can be interpolated to reach 12-megapixel quality. SANYO’s 3D-DNR technology offers a significant improvement in video clarity by reducing random signal noise. However it has some limitations. The optical image stabilization is very poor and it does not provide any internal storage or covers for the touch screen and lens.

Great Gift For
The Sanyo VPC-HD2000A would be a great gift for Mac users that like to use the latest technologies for video editing.

Price and Where to Buy
The Sanyo VPC-HD2000A is selling for $519.99 at Amazon.com.
