Hi folks,

The wife and I have decided that it might be a good idea to get a video camera for Christmas. We've got a budget of around £160 and a few months ago I noticed a local supermarket were selling a Toshiba camera for about £150.

However reading some reviews, it turns out this Toshiba camera wasn't very good quality.

So, doing a bit more searching I found that Aria are selling the Sanyo Xacti VPC-CG10 camcorder for £150 inc VAT.

I'm not expecting much for £150, at the moment we borrow my Dad's DV camcorder so I'm thinking just going from 4:3 SD video to 16:9 720p video would be a large step up for us (and our telly only does 720p anyway)

What I was wondering is if anyone has got any experience of this camcorder and if it's any good?

I did find some sample videos and pictures on the internet here but I wondered if anyone on here had any first hand experience of them and could comment?

Ta,

Rob
