A camcorder in a steel armour
You know that old saying “Boys don’t grow up - only their toys get bigger (and more expensive)”. Well, even if it seems to be universal, it’s not. Sometimes their toys get smaller, and encased in stainless steel. And sometimes, those toys are priced quite reasonably (and other times, you may get the impression that it’s covered with silver and not steel, judging from the price).
And time from time, you can find a pretty sweet deal. Just like this camcorder.
Well, first, the style factor - this thing is awesome. Small, covered in steel - what more could you possibly wish for? (don’t answer that)
The camera itself is pretty good - DVD quality video, nice LCD screen, direct audio/video connection (means you can connect it to your TV), 64Mb inbuilt memory (not impressive) + SD cards up to 4Gb (Now this is better - but you’ll have to buy the card yourself). Has a flash, 8x digital zoom, and takes 5.4 MegaPixel pictures. Quite good, eh?
And you get the whole package for $199.99 - actually it’s a pretty good price, since other cameras of such quality cost atleast twice as much.
Too bad it’s not available yet (though it should be soon). Found at thinkgeek.
