BenQ releases two budget 16MP SLR-Bridge camcorders, starting Rs. 10,999

BENQ GH700

BenQ has just introduces the two new cameras developed to be SLR-bridges, or superzooms – the GH700 and GH600.

The GH700 and GH600 superzooms from BenQ both feature 16 mega-pixel back side lighted sensor and a 21x optical zoom capability. Both camcorders have an aperture range of f/3.1-5.8. In terms of features, the two camcorders are pretty much similar, with variations being in the components of design and the GH700 providing a a little bit higher power supply (of 400 injections on standard AA cells) as as opposed to 330 on the GH600.

The GH700 also contains the ability to record full HD movie (1920x1080p at 60fps) while the GH600 can only do 1280x720 at 60 fps. The other immediate distinction between the two camcorders is the gold ring that decorates the top side of the lens on the GH700.

Both the camcorders consist of several image styles such as “lomo”, the capability to capture panoramas, and a extremely macro function which allows the photographic camera to get up close and personal with the topic at 1cm. Both camcorders also function LCDs with a 460K dot quality.

It is an exciting move on BenQ’s part, releasing two camcorders with such identical functions that contest with companies Nikon, Panasonic and Cannon. While function sensible the big three might not be confronted by the new BenQ products, the costs on the GH600 and GH700 is sure to entice many of those who are on a tight budget.

The GH600 is costing Rs. 10,999 and the GH700 at Rs. 15,999, which is much smaller than the cost of competitive items from Sony or Nikon or even Cannon for that issue.
