Sanyo VPC-HD2000A
$600.00
Released October, 2009
The Pros:Full 1080p video recording at 60FPS.
8MP still shots. 10x optical zoom.
The Cons:No optical image stabilization. No internal storage. High resolution video at higher frame rates eats through storage space at very high levels - limits recording time.
The Sanyo VPC-HD2000A is one of two ultra-affordable camcorders (VPC-FH1A and VPC-HD2000A) released in October 2009. Both of them were touted as the first digital camcorders to support iFrame, a technology that drastically improves the speed of importing, editing, and sharing videos.

Included also is a 10x optical and 10x digital zoom; an HDMI output for transmitting recorded content directly to an HDTV unit; and support for SD/SDHC cards. All in all, the Sanyo VPC-HD2000A is a high-powered digital camcorder that retails for a highly affordable price, especially considering its extensive capabilities.
