      Sanyo VPC-HD2

      By WDC Team

      Review summary: Hybrid camera and HD camcorder that aims to multi-task, but does it deliver?

      Pros: Good design, Comprehensive manual, Size, Price

      Cons: Image quality for both photo and video

      Verdict: The VPC-HD2 improves on Sanyo's preceding models and at an improved price, but its poor image quality still affirms its status as a Jack-of-all-trades and master of none.

      Sanyo VPC-HD2

      Review summary: The HD2 is obviously designed for the YouTube moviemaker

      Pros: Light, portable, Easy to use, Cheapest HD cam on the market, 7.1 megapixel digital stills

      Cons: Difficult to differentiate between SD and HD pictures, Poor positioning of microphone

      Verdict: Connection to an HD Ready plasma or LCD screen comes in the form of component video or HDMI. Cleverly, the HD2 doesn't have the sockets on its chassis, instead it plugs into a base station, which houses the socketry in order to minimise the cam's size

      Sanyo VPC-HD2

      Review summary: When compared to the other HDV camcorders we've looked at in the past few months, the HD2 is something of an anomaly. For starters, it's produced by Sanyo, a manufacturer that isn't commonly considered one of the camcorder stalwarts

      Pros: Light, portable, Easy to use, Cheapest HD cam on the market, 7.1 megapixel digital stills

      Cons: Difficult to differentiate between SD and HD pictures, Poor positioning of microphone

      Verdict: Affordable and full of features, but its images fall well short of the quality we'd expect from an HD cam

      Cons: HD quality does not come through in low light, HD quality does not come through in low light, HDTV needed to see full quality video, Grainy pictures in low light and at zoom

      Verdict: An extremely light and compact camera with reasonably good features. However, those who want quality over quantity may need to look a little bit further.
