HD movies on the Sanyo Xacti HD700 are recorded in the high-compression MPEG-4
AVC/H.264 format. As the movie files are small, they’re easy to upload to the web for podcasts or weblogs. An electronic image stabilizer helps keeps your movies smooth and steady, while the 5x optical zoom and 12x digital zoom let you zero in on the action while it’s happening.
The compact, pocket-fitting Xacti HD700 measures just 73.7 x 35 x 109 mm and weighs 189 g (body only). In line with other Xacti series digital movie cameras, it’s shaped for comfortable one-handed shooting on the run. It’s the ideal movie camera to match your active, on-the-go lifestyle.
