August 23, 2007 – 11:43 amFiled under: Digital Cameras
Sony’s no stranger to the HDV camcorder realm, so it’s no real shock to see the firm introduce a brand new model for “entry-level professionals.” Rockin’ a shoulder-mount design and aimed at “wedding videographers, freelancers, and educational video creators,” this unit supports both HDV and standard-definition DV formats, sports a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonner T 10x optical zoom lens, and features Super SteadyShot technology to keep things stabilized. Additionally, the HVR-HD1000U uses Sony’s 1/2.9-inch ClearVid CMOS sensor system and enables users to capture stills up to 6.1-megapixels (or 4.6-megapixels whilst recording in HD). ‘Course, all this HD goodness won’t come sans a premium, and although this bad boy is tagged entry-level, you’ll still be forking out $1,900 for it come December.
