Sanyo Xacti VPC-CG100 Full HD SD Card Dual Camera - Video + Photo
         
NO LONGER AVAILABLE.
The Sanyo Xacti VPC-CG100 is a Full HD 1920x1080 camcorder with a stylish form factor that is compact enough to carry anywhere. The ergonomic design means the camera is comfortable to hold whilst shooting and is perfect for recording spontaneous happenings in either full HD video or high-resolution 14 megapixel still photos. The CG100’s lens features 38mm wide-angle for fitting more in the picture and 12x “Double Range Zoom” for capturing more distant subjects. Its Digital Image Stabiliser helps to smooth out camera shake for stills and video while the Face Chaser function detects up to 12 faces in the frame. The CG100 includes support for Eye-fi wireless and up to 64GB SDXC* memory cards and records in MP4 format with the ability to edit video footage in-camera, making it easy to upload straight to video sharing websites or other devices. RRP $399.
* We recommend using Class 4 or higher memory cards for HD video recording.
SDHC Memory Cards and SDXC Memory Cards can be used only in equipment that is compatible with their respective formats. If the computer being used does not support SDXC Memory Cards, a message prompting you to format may appear. (Doing so will cause recorded images to be erased so do not choose to format.)

What are the features and how will they benefit you? |
|
38mm Wide Angle Lens – Fit more in the scene, especially indoor group shots, landscapes or architectural shots
2.7” LCD with 285 degree Rotation - the monitor can rotate through approximately 285º, so you can easily position it at your preferred angle.
SDHC/SDXC memory card recording –Record video or stills to SD/SDHC* and now extra capacity, high speed 64GB SDXC* memory cards for complete flexibility and easy transfer of your video footage.
14 Megapixel Still Photo Capture – Now carry only one camera - takes high resolution 14 megapixel still photo images, even whilst shooting video.
Digital Image Stabiliser – digitally compensates for vibration and hand-held movement for smoother, less jumpy images. In still photo mode the camera quickly shoots 2 images and automatically combines them to create one sharp image – helps to reduce both camera shake and image “noise” or grain.
Face Detection/Face Chaser – detects human faces (up to 12) and automatically adjusts camera for optimal focus and exposure for both video and stills. Even if the faces move, the CG100 can follow them and adjust the focus and exposure. The Face Chaser function has been developed so that it can even follow faces from a side-on angle
In-Camera Editing - The Xacti CG100 offers the convenience of editing Full HD videos on the camera itself. You can easily splice multiple clips into a single video, or cut unwanted footage.
High Speed Sequential Shooting – High speed still image shooting up to 7 frames per second at 2mp resolution and 1 frame per second at full 14mp resolution - great for freezing the action when shooting sports, kids or animals for example.
Simple Mode - Settings on the Xacti CG100 are easy to understand, so even beginners can enjoy shooting. In Simple mode, only the most basic elements are displayed on the LCD monitor.
Target Colour - tracks and focuses on moving subjects, such as children or pets, by detecting their colours. Even if you close the LCD panel temporarily, tracking will resume when you start shooting again.
Digital Filters – includes monochrome, sepia, as well as a cosmetic mode that enhances and smooths skin tones.
Manual Mode – Adjust aperture and shutter speed settings for greater control and creativity.
Super Macro – In this mode you can take amazing close-ups as near as 1cm away from your subject.
HDMI output - makes connecting the CG100 to a Digital TV or DVD Recorder a breeze (requires optional mini HDMI cable).
Quick Start Up – Because the camera records onto a solid-state SD memory card—rather than HDD or DVD media with moving parts—you can start shooting straightaway after opening the monitor.
Windows 7 Support - support for the Xacti CG100’s video format makes it easier than ever to play your videos on a computer.
Eye-Fi Link - supports Eye-Fi cards (sold separately), which let you transfer images to your computer over a wireless network.
Easy YouTube Upload - The Xacti CG100 makes it extremely easy to upload your videos to YouTube as well as post videos to blogs and enter video contests. |
