Sanyo VPC-CA9 employs advanced MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression technology to produce
video files that are easy to handle on the web or on your PC. Despite being
compact enough to carry about anywhere, anytime, the CG10 is capable of shooting
high-definition 720p video. The camera’s wide, 3.0-inch, 230,000-pixel LCD monitor can be positioned at your preferred angle so that your subject stays clearly in view—whether you’re shooting high or low, or aiming at yourself.
