Sanyo is the first iFrame camcorder: Sanyo VPC-HD2000A and VPC-FH1A

Sanyo has introduced in the U.S., the two models HD2000A and VPC-VPC-FH1A, which compared to previously available models have VPC-HD2000 and VPC - FH1 (the first consumer camcorder with 1080p60 were different) in one: they support iFrame as Apple's first camcorder format with a resolution of 960x540 (1 / 4 of the 1080 HD resolution), H.264 and progressive recording at 30 frames per second less prozessorlastig and thus should be more user friendly than H.264 video in HD. This advantage is bought with the lower resolution. Native support in iMovie 09 was first announced by Apple support.apple.com/kb/HT3905 equal (). The name of the format also suggests that the format (such as MJPEG) only uses iFrames, so independently compressed images that use, in contrast to "normal" H.264 only intraframe compression, each image so compressed independently of other pictures , which also pushes the processor load (because, at present imagine no other need to be calculated), but also the size of the resulting files can anschwillen. Other technical data: recording in FullHD (1920x1080) and 60p (ie 60 frames per second) - with 24Mbit / sec video data rate. Recording format is MPEG-4 AVC H.264 SD / SDHC cards, image converter is a 1 / 2 ,5-inch CMOS chip with 8 Mpix (the photos do with 3.264x2.448 pixels) can further on board are a 2.7-inch display and 10x optical zoom. Prices in the U.S.: 600 (FH1A) or $ 500 (HD2000A).
