Panasonic TA-1 Ultra-thin HD Released

Mini camcorders keep getting better. A couple of years ago, people were happy with a 720p camcorder that could hold a decent amount of video on its on-board memory. Fast forward a couple of years, and you get Panasonic TA-1 Ultra-thin HD camcorder. A super thin mini-camcorder that is capable of capturing 8MP stills and lets you bring your 1080p resolution videos to life. It’s designed specifically for the YouTubers on the go.

Panasonic TA-1 does have a pretty easy to use interface. You won’t have to read a 100 page guide to get started with this camcorder. The software included with this camcorder makes uploading videos to YouTube and other videos sites easier too. TA-1 even supports iFrame recording which is nice for Mac owners. It does have a built-in USB out too, so you won’t need to carry a USB cable with you around to gain access to your camcorder.

I like the fact that you can just connect this camcorder to a computer and use it as your Skype webcam. That certainly saves you some time and money. The quality of still images is decent too, meaning that you won’t have to take an extra camera with you. The inclusion of LED light for those dark areas is nice too.

All in all, Panasonic TA-1 Ultra-thin HD cam is a decent gadget if you can get your hands on it (it’s been out of stock for quite some time).
