  • We’re not sure whether we’d pay £500 for a combined camera and video camera given the low cost of flash-based camcorders, but if you’ve the budget for an HD model, the Sanyo Xacti HD2000 won’t disappoint. If the high megapixel count is less important ...

  • Excellent camcorder; wide range of functionality; every connection option under the sun.
  • Pistol grip not ideal for photos; only records to MPEG4; expensive.

  • Small (ish) form factor (fits into jacket pocket)

  • The HD2000s biggest stumbling block apart from the occasional fuzzy image is its manufacturers suggested retail price at the time of writing: £549. For that outlay you could buy an excellent starter digital SLR and standard zoom lens (the Canon 1000D...

  • Theres no doubt that the Sanyo Xacti HD2000 has cleverly packed in more features than youd expect from its gadget-y looking exterior, and fun to use it is too. But, if youve £549 to spend and your bias is towards still images, there are very obviou...
