Pentax X70 - 720p
Pentax X70 - full specs and image! - PentaxForums.com
Going to retail for $400. Sounds like they have a digital stabilization feature (which is optional). Movie shooting in high-definition TV image quality and with anti-shake protection The X70 captures high-quality movie clips, equivalent in image quality to that of high-definition TV (1280 x 720 pixels). It also features the Movie SR mode,*** which effectively minimizes annoying camera shake during movie shooting through the use of exclusive software. As a result, the photographer enjoys high-quality, blur-free movie shooting with minimal effort. ** When the Movie SR mode is selected, the angle of view becomes narrower than normal shooting. Makes one wonder if Pentax will come out with a DSLR w/ HD video, given they're in Nikon's boat (no pro video division to protect). |
As I understand it, they have some alliance with Samsung? Samsung today announced (Again) their answer to Micro-Four Thirds and claim they'll have a camera shipping this fall.
Thus Pentax may be working on an APS-C camera that fits the bill. |
Lisa,
In referring to Samsung's responce to u4/3rds, do you mean this? Samsung?s NX Series, Hybrid Digital Cameras Make Global Debut at PMA 2009 |

But, I would love to have more really good bridge cameras with good HD video with proper coding. |
