Manual of product VPC-TH1S
Editorial note
The Sanyo VPC-TH1S is a camcorder that stands out for its impressive 50x digital zoom and 30x optical zoom, providing the ability to capture fine details even from a distance. The 3-inch LCD screen allows for an immersive viewing experience with satisfactory image quality. Additionally, the built-in autofocus ensures sharp and precise images, which is an asset for users looking to achieve quality results. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The maximum video resolution of 640 x 480 pixels is relatively low compared to current standards and may disappoint users seeking higher image quality. Furthermore, the 1.1 MP sensor can produce less detailed images, especially when cropping. The battery life, while decent at 3.2 hours, may not be sufficient for long shooting sessions. Finally, the internal memory of 43 MB is limited, making the use of external memory cards almost essential. Overall, the Sanyo VPC-TH1S is a camcorder offering interesting features and a sleek design, but it may not meet the expectations of users demanding high image quality and storage capacity.Score details
