Everyone in the camera and camcorder world has been going a little 3-D of late, but hopefully a new projector phase will quickly steer us well clear. And the Sony HDR-PJ50V Camcorder is a fine effort to take a stranglehold on the market. Packing a 220GB HDD built-in, able to record up to 91 hours of footage in LP mode, at max res. it’ll hit a full 1920×1080 HD 60p, all through a wide angle G lens, razor-sharp ‘Exmore R’ CMOS sensor, 17x extended zoom and 3″ touch screen for good measure too. The projector though is what really matters, and hook this up in front of a wall and it’ll output at up to 60″ in size, perfect for family memories and amateur movie projects alike.
