April 4, 2008 01:37 by jdelpay

Sony  on Thursday announced its smallest HD camcorder, the Handycam HDR-TG1. Measuring 4.7 by 1.3 by 2.5 inches (LWD) and weighing a mere ten ounces, this flash memory camcorder is definitely designed for the frequent traveler.

The HDR-TG1 records in the AVCHD format at full HD resolution (1920 by 1080), contains a 4-megapixel still image camera, and includes a 4GB Pro Duo Mark2 media card. It also offers the ability to see up to 8 faces within a scene and will automatically adjust focus, exposure, and color while shooting video, thanks to its face detection technology.

Using the BIONZ processing engine, the tiny camcorder has a Carl Zeiss 10x optical zoom lens with improved dynamic range that should increase the quality of still images.

Overall, Sony seems to have a decent travel camcorder on its hands. The HDR-TG1 will retail for roughly $900 and will be available in May.
