The Sanyo Xacti VPC-TH1 certainly looks the part, and has an attractive price to boot. Combined with a healthy, no-nonsense approach to filming, it has the potential to be the ideal budget hi-def option.
Anyone familiar with previous models in the Xacti range will note that the VPC-TH1 has a rather sober-looking design compared to the distinctive ray-gun stylings once favoured by Sanyo's design team. This model has a much more similar look and feel to its competitors in the market at large. It's not dissimilar in size and shape to Panasonic's compact HDC-SD9 -- if anything, it's slightly smaller and lighter.
The inclusion of an HDMI port, face 'chasing' -- that is, recognition -- technology and a lengthy 30x optical zoom are definite bonuses. Size and price aside though, simplicity is probably the VPC-TH1's biggest selling point.
