SDR-H40 40Gb HDD Camera
The H40 features Advanced O.I.S. and a 42x Optical Zoom. Advanced O.I.S. prevents blurry images caused by unsteady hands as you shoot, so images are clear, sharp and beautiful when displayed on a big TV screen. The 42x Optical Zoom lens is the most powerful zoom available, and also features low distortion.
The internal 40GB hard disk drive lets you record for up to 36 hours**. And the Anti-Shock Shield helps protect recorded video data from damage due to jolts and impact.
Connecting the camera via USB cable to a DVD Burner, and pressing a single button is all it takes to copy recorded video clips from an SDHC/SD Memory Card or a hard disk to a DVD disc. The disc you make can be played on DVD players, so playback is easy too.
