Anandtech reviews the Sony DSC-M1 digital minicamcorder. This unit records MPEG4 video as well as captures 5 MP stills. MPEG4 video can be captured at 640 x 480 resolutions and at 30fps. The camera comes with:
* Sony DSC-M1 camera
* NP-FT1 Rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery
* Charging dock
* Charger power cable
* 32 MB Memory Stick Duo
* Memory stick adapter
* A/V cable
* USB cable
* Wrist strap
* Instruction manual
What does Anandtech think of it?
The M1 was a good start by Sony, but more work needs to be done to improve the still image quality. We are excited by the future of MPEG-4 video modes in newer digicams by companies such as Casio, Pentax, Samsung, and Sony. Hopefully, newer cameras will have a better balance between the video and still image functionality.
