Panasonic SV-AV100 4-in-1 Digital Video Camera

Panasonic SV-AV100 4-in-1 Digital Video Camera

The SV-AV100 is part of a totally new line of D-SNAP products just introduced by Panasonic. Measuring a mere 1.25 by 2.125 by 3.5 inches, it's designed to be truly the world's smallest high-quality camcorder and literally drops into a pocket, purse, or briefcase for instant on-the-go videos. The secret to the camcorder's incredible small size is simplicity itself: all recordings are captured on a thumbnail-size removable SD memory card. The card eliminates the need for conventional cassette tapes and mini-DVDs… and all the mechanical components that go with them. Size is drastically reduced while reliability is significantly enhanced. Not so simple, however, is the technology needed to make the SD card perform under the extremely high data rate required for MPEG2 DVD quality.
