Sanyo Xacti VPC-CS1 Camera review

I got this camera to replace my old Sanyo VPC-CG10 that went MIA. Based on the stats from the Sanyo site, and knowing it was in the same general product line I expected to be getting a better camera than what I had.

While technically a better camera, and having a higher resolution. The quality of the image sensor appears to be worse, making everything I record with it have some lines and grainy-ness to it.

It no longer has the buttons on the grip and relocated them to the LCD panel, and made them significantly smaller than before.

Look for a review coming to http://www.thenoc.tv

how well does it focus?

[DefconComputers]

@chloenavy It has trouble focusing on any shiny objects, and dark objects with autofocus on, in many settings.

If you need to film alot of dark things it's best to go ahead and set it to manual focus

[DefconComputers]

@chloenavy It does have the ability to put it on a standard tripod
