Sanyo is bringing latest XACTI cams stateside
Posted on February 4, 2010 | No Comments
Sanyo announced a couple of tasty XACTI camcorders a few weeks ago for the Japanese market. We praised the cams for shooting 1080p video and 14.4MP stills, but questioned whether or not they will ever reach the States. Well, good news. They're on the way and should hit retailers sometime next month.

The only info we can find about this camcorder comes from the YouTube video and description, which states it's a first-of-its-kind camcorder attachment using a WVGA DLP pico chipset. We can't make out the manufacturer and really anything else about the concept. But one thing is clear. We love it. Click through for the video demo.

CrunchDeals: Flip MinoHD camcorder for $120
Posted on December 16, 2009 | No Comments
Ho ho ho, this may be the lowest price you’ll see on a new Flip MinoHD camcorder for a while. Amazon’s got them for $120, today only, down from $160. To be honest, Cisco just bought Flip and they’re expected to unveil some new products at CES (like, perhaps, Wi-Fi enabled camcorders?) so Flip might just be blowing these things out to make room for the new stuff. Either way, today you get a somewhat reasonably-priced pocket camcorder.

Wearable ContourHD cam gets lens kit and waterproof housing accessories
Posted on December 3, 2009 | No Comments
Devin recently reviewed the ContourHD 1080p, a wearable HD camcorder designed to be worn during activities that would cause other camcorders to self-destruct. One thing it couldn't do, however, was go into the water (though it resisted some splashing). It's not designed to be waterproof out of the box, which definitely could be a problem for divers, rafters, or other water-sport enthusiasts.
The makers were clearly aware of this shortcoming, and they've come out with a waterproof housing that will protect the camera to a depth of 10 meters.

DXG dresses up the camcorder, releases the Luxe Collection
Posted on July 28, 2009 | No CommentsI’m taking a wild guess that these camcorders are not for the average CrunchGear reader. Right? But maybe our reader’s wifes/gfs/moms would appreciate them more. The DXG Luxe Collection is basically your average DXG HD camcorder styled after some designer handbag. I mean, they aren’t bad cameras as they can record up to 8 hours [...] -
