Sanyo VPC-SH1R High Definition Camcorder and 10 MP Camera

Review: I have the Sanyo VPC-SH1 yesterday, so that these first impressions are. But I have spent quite a lot of time with him burn schon.Ich am a single guy who is used primarily to share the camcorder to the short clips online, and occasionally a DVD. I’m not filming family structures, while any type of advanced video editing, or even plugging in an HDTV. So for me – there are advantages and disadvantages. They may not sell. I would later see the detail of gehen.Pros: 1 Fits into my jeans front pocket. I call it a PocketCam (barely. .. And you ladies do not.) 2 Fantastic video quality for PocketCam.3. Large Weitwinkelobjektiv.4. Manual settings for virtually everything, including ISO and Fokus.5. AVC / H. 264 format (for ease of use, size, speed delivery, and because it is common practice everywhere. Plus I’m a PC guy). Cons: 1 Monitor does not close flush with the body of the Nockens.2. The four way button “SET” is too small for a man in the Hände.3. Anti-Shake sein.OK we could have gone better – look out! First off, the only thing I can compare to Sanyo, Sony is a Webbie (traditionally shaped one that’s very similar in size) that I have a year ago purchased. There would probably a little better than the videos, it can be considered if it is this contribution to lesen.Größe very important to me, and this thing is small. This tiny camcorder is not only the product of some Asian coolest obsession with miniaturization. It really is a full-fledged camcorder with a decent lens that fit into the breast pocket of a man’s jeans. And that means that I actually use it. It would stay at home most of the time if I can put it in my pocket. The widest point is 1. 6 “wide and that is just around the lens area. Most camcorders of this type are well over 2″, which actually disqualifies it as something you can put in your pocket. The Sanyo VPC-SH1 is a kind of unique product, right now, with more features for its size than anything currently on the market – that I know of sowieso.Ich ran around for a few hours with the Sanyo in one hand, and the Sony in another – having videos outside, inside, up close, far away, and at night, indoors and out. I dumbed the Sanyo to 720p, so that they would be on a level playing field. No matter what the conditions were monitored on my computer the Sanyo saw videos of a lot better. The differences were not subtle. They had not had dramatisch.Es dramatic than in very low light have. The Sony video would be nothing but a black screen, while Sanyo’s would still be quite watchable. Granular yes – but that would take me. I do not expect miracles from a small cam.Auf this is her own the Sanyo everything is fine in low light, but when you run manually, the ISO brighten all the way up to 1600 or 3200, things really. It will not go that high, if you leave it in the car – probably because of the grain problem – but that is a trade-off I will always machen.Ich this process as a key link with manual focus, auto-lock , display, and info on-off. These shortcuts are fully configurable to whatever you want to always have them – and it is easier to set them up. I do not have the manual for anything yet, and I barely cracked a video Mutter.Optischer Zoom’m going out all the way to a remarkable 30x. There is no way that this is just if you have the camcorder to something fixed or set on a tripod. I have tried, a few windmills zooming five miles, and they were shaking and out of the frame, as we were with a magnitude 8 earthquake has struck! But – the cool thing is to enlarge on this, that it depends on the speed, as It is far the lever. If you slam you to go up there in about three seconds, easy living facades autofocus. However, with a slight nudge, you can slow down vergrößern.Apropos autofocus, I think, do all in order Sanyo most of the time. You can fool it in low light, if you have something in the vicinity of something suddenly go far, but for the most part, if you behave yourself, do it’s job. It also helped when I changed it went into the settings and see the standard multi-focal. You have AF lock, which can be discontinued at any time when you need it. Manual focus is not available when you shoot, you have to adjust it before, if you use it is wollen.Bildstabilisierung the electronic and rather weak. I tried to walk with him on and off and did things a little slippery. But there is little or no impact at all seemed to have the zoom on something, and that’s when things really are zittern.Das wide-angle lens really take in a huge panoramic view. I guess this summer, and it should for some great scene recordings. The disadvantage is that you use to end up with Zoom for more normal order, your item properly only under erhalten.Für is the largest part of the operating system very intuitive, but there are a few scratches his head. You can delete a photo file from the SET button, but a video file, you have to dive to clear the menu system. Audio wind reduction is not adopted in “sound” but bundled with the video noise reduction Einstellungen.Ich a few pictures. It works, but that is not my primary interest. But I am glad it is there because you never know when-camcorder behave perfectly when I connected to my PC. On both, it came as an external drive called Xacti (a nice gesture that Sony missed), and it was quick and easy to locate and copy the files to edit on the hard disk. Windows 7 on my notebook, I, together with a short video clips in multiple Windows Live Movie Maker without a hitch. In fact, this my video editing and sharing program will be from now on. It does everything, I will never want to (trim, join, add titles and music, fade out), and is somewhere to send the finished video right from the program. You do not have to beg on Youtube, go to your hard drive. This program is on Youtube – or wherever you want it online. And the program is free – what more do you want to say? I have inserted the Sanyo into my desktop PC with Windows XP, and again no probs. There I made another clip in Nero Vision throw some old files from the Webbie for good measure, and it came out perfect. This is the sweet on AVC / H. 264 BTW.Ich have not included the editor and probably will not installiert.Der biggest drawback of this camcorder is (for me) is the hardware. do not in the interest of the elegant styling of the Sanyo’s body cam it would be flush with the monitor when it is closed. The two rear edges really hang out there. So I would not recommend this camcorder for children in her teens. I do not think it survived in one piece for long with a 14-year-old skateboarder. It is really for adults who break hopefully a bit more responsibility, würde.Die Set button, which is a four-way directional and enter key, is also much too small and sensitive for a guy with his thumb . The way I found to this very important button is used have not put my thumb on it, but engage each direction with gentle pressure from the opposite side. It works, but it is not optimal.Trotzdem, I give it five stars because everything that I have to do it – and good will. It really makes the videos I took on my Sony Webbie look like they were taken with a toy. It cost $ 150 more than the Webbie is worth every cent es.Meine five stars can be someone else but three. If you price optical image stabilization, you go to cut quite a few stars. (I do not know, because optical stabilization adds bulk and size, and it is not so important because, as I am with this camcorder. If I keep up with both hands and use it on my waist, it is quite easy to hold steady anyway.) It all depends on what you do with your videos. Experienced videographers my snub their noses at camcorders like this, but I love it !—————————– UPDATE 26th March 2010 —————– ——————- There seems a difference of opinion about what is acceptable performance in low light for a small FlashCam in this price class, I thought I would save for a few links of Youtube vids of a karaoke bar brought low light to help people decide for themselves. I know – it’s Youtube – but there will still a good idea. The first one I made myself, and it includes my new Sanyo Xacti VPC-SH1 and my old Sony MHS CM1 Webbie: [. . . ] Here is another vid of the same karaoke bar (with the same singer) a few months ago, by another guy. His camcorder is a Canon FS100: [. . . ] For purposes of this vid, I left everything on the car. I chose the same singers (a mutual friend) because I knew the other vid wurde.Meine initial enthusiasm for Windows Live Movie Maker is a little subdued after it for a couple of weeks (not worthwhile in this), But not for this camcorder. There is only one champion! Rating: 5 / 5
