Reviews | 14 expert reviews (rating 70 / 100) • 215 user reviews: "The Sanyo VPC-CG10 may have a lot more functionality than ultracompact camcorders like the Flip UltraHD, but that functionality comes at a price...To provide beginning users with an easier interface, Sanyo has included a "Simple Menu" setting, which omits about 95% of the menus...With the VPC-CG10, Sanyo perseveres with its unique pistol-grip style...The recording media is another plus: SDHC memory cards are tiny and portable..."

Reviews | 12 expert reviews (rating 70 / 100) • 13 user reviews: "The Sony HDR-FX1000 ($3199 MSRP) is marketed as a Handycam through Sony's consumer line of products, but its feature set and price tag clearly aim it at the so-called prosumer and budget pro market...Similar in construction to the pricier HVR-Z5U, the FX1000 is a fixed lens HDV camcorder that records to tape...This may be enough to dissuade some users from the outset, especially pros who need the stability and comfort of a larger body...For those stepping up to professional-grade equipment for the first time, be prepared for the significant weight of the FX1000 (4 pounds, 9 ounces...The overall layout of the HDR-FX1000 leaves something to be desired..."
