    While it's a perfectly serviceable HD camcorder, the Sony Handycam HDR-XR100 should deliver a little more of everything for the money.

  • Sanyo Xacti VPC-CG10EXBK HD Dual Camera

    Sanyo's entry-level portable camcorder is very portable indeed, but suffers with some design and implementation flaws.

    It's the active image stabilisation system that finally makes shooting lengthy handheld movies or on-the-go videos a viable option, which elevates this camera from average to good.

    With its new back-illuminated CMOS sensor, GPS receiver and active image stabilisation, this new Handycam looks set to usurp the camcorder throne. We can't wait until we're able to do a full review.
