SDR-H200, SDR-H18, SDR-H20 specifications

One of the standout features of these camcorders is their built-in 60GB hard drive, which allows users to capture and store hours of video footage without the need for external storage solutions. The SDR-H20 and SDR-H18 have a slightly different storage capacity, making them suitable for varying shooting preferences. Users can also record directly to SD cards, providing flexibility for those who prefer additional storage options.

These models are equipped with a 3CCD image sensor, which enhances color reproduction and provides clear, vibrant images.

The 28mm wide-angle lens allows for expansive shots, ideal for capturing large groups or vast landscapes. This versatility is complemented by the optical image stabilization feature, which reduces shake and helps deliver smooth, professional-quality footage even in challenging shooting scenarios.

The user interface is designed for convenience, featuring an intuitive touchscreen display that makes navigating through settings and playback easy. Automatic features like face detection and scene modes further streamline the shooting process, allowing users to focus more on their creativity rather than technical adjustments.

Moreover, the SDR-H200 stands out with its advanced digital enhancements, such as the ability to create cinematic-quality videos with effects and transitions that can be applied in-camera, enabling users to produce polished content on the go.
