Genius, a brand from KYE Systems Corp. has introduced its latest high definition 5.0 mega pixel camcorder, G-Shot HD55. This 5 mega pixel CMOS camcorder is a high definition video camera. It records at 30 fps/1280 x 720 pixels and uses high-compression H.264 format. This allows the G-Shot HD55 to record still images and movies using less memory, which can be seen on high-resolution flat-panel TVs using the video cable. It also comes with a 2X digital zoom to enlarge pictures.
"This offering is part of strategy to focus on our consumer electronics business. We as a company and world class product provider have recognized the thin dividing line between IT and consumer electronics. The digital lifestyle products would cater to the growing segment of convergence between IT and electronic goods and we are poised to provide state-of-the-art products to our consumers in India," informed Mr. Sandeep Ramani, Country Manager, OBM Sales Division, KYE Systems
The G-Shot HD55 has a 3.0 inch TFT LCD color display that is adjustable and one can capture still images up to 8 mega pixel resolution by software interpolation. And it also supports a high capacity SD up to 4GB so one gets much more recording time. Another notable feature is its LED light for dark environments.
The camcorder comes with a dual battery compartment—Li-ion battery or four batteries. While using the Li-ion battery, the user does not have to be worried about loss of power as the G-Shot includes a battery charger. The user can capture and take videos anywhere, anytime.
