Sanyo's back with another High Definition camcorder - the DMX-HD800. This 720p camcorder is able to store video in AVC/H.264 formats, and will come in gold, pink or black colors. It looks small enough to fit into the palm of your hand, and with the ability to record video in 720p, this is a huge step forward compared to its predecessor. Could this new Xacti DMX-HD800 be a top seller in due time? Only time will tell, but by virtue of its specifications that allow it to seamlessly switch between camcorder and photo functions, Sanyo has a clear winner on its hands (to me, at least). Would you like a convergence device that snaps lovely casual photos in 8 megapixel glory while recording High Definition video with ease, or do you prefer two dedicated devices instead?
