Sony Wows With NEX-VG10 Interchangeable Lens Camcorder


Sony has blurred the distinction between SLRs and Camcorders with its new NEX-VG10, which features an APS sized CMOS sensor and supports interchangeable lenses.

The NEX-VG10 launch commemorates the 25th anniversary of Sony's Handycam consumer camcorders. We think there couldn't have been a better tribute.

The NEX-VG10 features the same CMOS sensor as in the newly introduced NEX-5 and NEX-3 mirror-less DSLRs, and also uses their E-mount series lenses. It is also compatible with "A-mount" interchangeable lenses used by Sony's existing alpha DSLR camera lineup via a mount adapter (sold separately).

The camcorder's ExmorTM APS HD CMOS sensor realizes high resolution video and 14 megapixel still images.

Besides shallow depth of field, which allows for background defocus, the large sensor gives greater sensitivity for sharp low light video capture.

Image stabilization adds to the camcorder's low light capability.

The NEX-VG10 can capture full 1920x1080 high definition video at up to 24Mbps.

It comes with an E-mount 18-200mm lens optimized for video shooting with a powerful 11x optical zoom in addition to a silent auto-focus.

It features exceptional audio recording capability with a Quad Capsule Spatial Array Stereo Microphone.

Its 3.0" LCD Viewfinder has a high contrast and brightness swivel display.

The NEX-VG10 accepts both Memory Stick PRO DuoTM (including Memory Stick PRO-HG DuoTM) and SD (including both SDHC and SDXC formats) media. Users can record up to four hours of high definition footage (1920x1080, FH mode) when using the 32GB memory card.

Sony's Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo HX offers an industry leading 30MB per second transfer rate, which means Handycamusers can upload video clips in a fraction of actual playback time.

Price and Availability:

The NEX-VG10 will be available in September for about $2,000 and presales on www.sonystyle.com will begin July 14.
