This thing looks sweet.  Not sure if it uses the xacti C5 technology for pictures / video (5MP) which had a problem with low light shots.  I hear the C6 (6MP) has better lighting for video and pictures.  I want a review when you get to it.  Thank Engaget for great news.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Durk]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 3rd 2006 12:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sanyo announces VPC-HD1 hi-def SD recording camera]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/03/sanyo-announces-vpc-hd1-hi-def-sd-recording-camera/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/03/sanyo-announces-vpc-hd1-hi-def-sd-recording-camera/</guid><description><![CDATA[So how many seconds of HD video is it going to be able to fit on a 2GB SD card?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brian Short]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 3rd 2006 12:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sanyo announces VPC-HD1 hi-def SD recording camera]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/03/sanyo-announces-vpc-hd1-hi-def-sd-recording-camera/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/03/sanyo-announces-vpc-hd1-hi-def-sd-recording-camera/</guid><description><![CDATA[i think the same as durk,(about the c5)<br><br>but i have to ask, wont the sd cards memory be used up VERY quickly. now the c5, which records at vga, can hold 1 hours of video on a 1gb card (at best quality) how much 720p is going to fit on that??????]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 3rd 2006 12:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sanyo announces VPC-HD1 hi-def SD recording camera]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/03/sanyo-announces-vpc-hd1-hi-def-sd-recording-camera/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/03/sanyo-announces-vpc-hd1-hi-def-sd-recording-camera/</guid><description><![CDATA[Dont (usually) all HD tech suffer from low light problems?

I want one of these that looks and feels like a normal everyday digital camera.  Anybody know of anything like that?  I love the Canon S2-IS, but it does not compress (not HD either).  By the way, you can buy a 4 GB SD card for a little over $200, which should hold almost an hour of video.  That's on par with most tape based devices.  Expensive, yes, but if you can cough up $800 for the camera, what's another 2 bills?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2006 12:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sanyo announces VPC-HD1 hi-def SD recording camera]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/03/sanyo-announces-vpc-hd1-hi-def-sd-recording-camera/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/03/sanyo-announces-vpc-hd1-hi-def-sd-recording-camera/</guid><description><![CDATA[ITS HARD TO BELEIVE THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY RECORD HD ON A SD CARD !

So I guess this camera mighth be good for recording short duration HD movies since it lacks direct Firewire connection to PC/other HD recording device. The problem with not having Firewire is that any continuous recording of HD done using this camera will limit the recording time to a max of 40 minutes (for a 2GB SD card). I not sure sure if the camera can take a 4GB SD card. The website says it takes 2GB SD card.
