Chatsworth, Calif.- Sanyo Electric unveiled at International CES a restyled Xacti FullHD camcorder that is thin and light enough to be carried in a pants pocket.
The Xacti VPC-CS1, which carries a $299 suggested retail, will capture video in 1,920 by 1,080 resolution, and features a compact body design measuring just 27mm thick and weighing 0.35 pounds (including battery and SD memory card).
Sanyo said it plans to ship the product to retailers in February.
Sanyo reduced the video camera's thickness using a new optical module for the 9x zoom lens (f 2.8-3.0).
In addition, the video camera's CMOS sensor measures 1/5 of an inch and contains approximately 3.4 million pixels.
