Canon's HV10 And Sony's HC3 Camcorders Previewed At New York Times

Canon’s HV10.jpg

David Pogue writing over at The Ney York Times compares the features of the soon-to-be launched Canon's HV10 with those of the Sony's HC3 camcorder. 'Next month, Canon will release the world’s smallest and least expensive high-definition tape camcorder, a one-handable beauty called the HV10. Its list price is $1,300. As any gadget freak can tell you, however, that’s an inflated, fanciful figure provided for — well, for no good reason. The online price, once the camcorder is on store shelves, will be lower.

The HV10 is not the first high-def consumer camcorder by any means; Sony began blazing this path at the beginning of 2005. In fact, Sony’s third HD camcorder, not counting pro models, has been available for months: the HC3 ($1,500 list price; under $1,200 online), the previous price and size champ.'
