Along with their HD700 720p camcorder, Sanyo has announced what they claim is the world's smallest, lightest camcorder (as of August last year — a lot could have changed by now).
Unsurprisingly, it looks very similar to the HD700, and offers a similar feature set. Sanyo is happy to claim that their 1080i camera is "full HD" - strictly speaking it's a "p" short but that doesn't detract from this being a pretty capable little camcorder.
It uses the AVCHD recording format, features an impressive 10x optical zoom lens, 2.7-inch widescreen display, a HD recording time of up to five hours, ergonomic design, and weight of 9.5oz.
Its suggested retail price is US$799.99, which is just $200 (about £100) over the 720p version, and it's available now.
