More Description of Digital Electronics Sanyo Xacti HD1
Key to the Sanyo HD1's ability to record high-definition video is its high-precision LSI (large-scale integration) for image processing. This powerful ''high-definition engine'' executes a vast number of calculations in a short period of time. It enables the HD1 to realize image processing functions such as high-definition 720p processing, real-time MPEG-4 compression and noise reduction.
Displayed prominently in the front of the Sanyo Xacti HD1 is a bright, highly efficient 10x optical zoom lens. Built from 12 elements designed in 9 groups and with a built-in neutral density filter, the 10x zoom lens has a maximum aperture of f/3.5 in both wide and telephoto angles, allowing for clear images in lower light situations. Combined with a 10x digital zoom capability, the Sanyo HD1 is capable of a total 100x zoom.
As with all previous Sanyo Xacti digital media cameras, the HD1 can record still images in addition to video clips. A newly developed 5.36 Megapixel (total) CCD captures beautiful 5.1 Megapixel still images which are recorded directly onto a standard SD memory card. The camera can record both 5.1 Megapixel still images and high-definition (1280 x 720-pixel) digital video at the same time with a simple press of the shutter button during the shooting of a video clip (depending on the mode used to take still images, simultaneous video clip shooting may be interrupted).
