Sony reveals HD vidcam with smile detection

 Sony reveals HD vidcam with smile detection

Sony is taking the lead in the camcorder industry by introducing the first high-definition camcorder with both Smile Shutter and face detection technologies. The handheld is Sony’s first to use smile detection and does so to give videographers a hands-off approach to taking photos alongside video; the camera can automatically snap 10-megapixel still photos when it sees smiles without having to interrupt video capture. Like recent Cyber-shots, the CX12 can also prioritize those shots to take photos only of smiling groups or of adults or children.

The camera records full-sized 1920×1080 video in AVCHD format and uses Sony’s Memory Stick Pro Duo cards as its sole storage medium; a 4GB card is included in the box. Sony touts relatively strong video quality with a 12X stabilized optical zoom lens and Dolby 5.1 surround recording, complete with zoomed audio to properly capture sound from distant subjects.

Sony packs the CX12 with a sync cradle and ships the camera in early August for $900.
