While that will work well for amateur and lighter users, this SONY HANDYCAM is perfect for those who really want to turn their lives into something out of Hollywood. The HDR-TG7VE is ultra-compact and shoots in full HD (1920x1080) while the Japanese firm also reckons it's the smallest and lightest of any rival. You have to say, it does look a stunner and with 16GB of storage on board, you've enough room for about six hours of filming, even at the best quality.
Cleverly, the titanium body has been coated to make it tougher, because it will take plenty of knocks in your pocket and bag. And that's the beauty of this beauty, it is fully-featured but still tiny enough to be kept about your person for those You've Been Framed emergency moments. Storage can be added to with a Memory Stick and while it only takes still shots at four megapixels, that is still good enough to print out if you prefer old school hard copies of snaps.
Cool tech on board comes in the form of the GPS receiver which plots your location every time you take a shot or shout Lights, Camera, Action. (Disclaimer: It doesn't really work the moment you say that, it was a joke, and you would look foolish shouting it anyway). You can then view back your work on a map that shows exactly where you've been and what was filmed where.
The usual face detection and smile shutter options are included and an automated editing function will mash together your clips quickly with some fun effects and music. Unlike the Flip, it's not as simple to just plug into a PC and upload to YouTube but it's not difficult to do. Due out in May, it won't be cheap - Sony stuff never is, which is possibly why the price is still a secret.
