The Sony UX10 camcorder delivers the highest HD resolution available without sacrificing recording times. The Sony HDR-UX10 features a new high-profile encoding system to optimize encoding efficiency. And, because the Sony HDR UX10 is based on the industry-standard MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video codec, the camcorder enters the market compatible with many third-party editing suites.

Sony UX10 video camera - High Definition
“With a total line of seven models and four recording media options, no other company offers customers more choice,” said Kelly Davis, director of camcorder marketing at Sony Electronics. “And, our new AVCHD models give consumers the utmost functionality to better enjoy creating and viewing their home movies in HD.” The Sony UX10 high definition model will be available in March for about $800. The Sony HDR-UX10 can be purchased with a full array of accessories online at sonystyle.com or at Sony Style retail stores (sonystyle.com/retail).
Sony HDR-UX10 HD camcorder - LCD frame and Flash control
Sharing advanced imaging technologies from Sony’s digital camera line, the new Sony UX10 AVCHD camcorder incorporates face detection technology for both video and photos. The technology can identify up to eight faces in the camcorder’s LCD frame, and automatically adjusts focus, exposure, color control for natural-looking skin tones, and when photos are taken, flash control. The UX10 camcorder also features hybrid movie recording on the media card and up to an hour of continuous recording (1440 LP mode) on a DVD +R double-layer disc.
Sony HDR-UX10 - Processing speed and Noise reduction
Unlike other Handycam models with face detection, the Sony HDR-UX10 camcorder allocates more pixels to the detected face during the AVCHD encoding process for the best possible picture when people are the subjects. Other technologies include ClearVid CMOS sensors with Exmor derived technology. This technology utilizes column analog/digital conversion on the sensor itself to minimize picture noise. Together with the high processing speed and noise reduction capability of the Bionz processing engine and dynamic range optimization, the new Sony UX10 camcorder produces high-resolution video and photos with natural color reproduction and rich details.
Sony HDRUX10 High Definition camcorder - Internal memory
Hybrid plus recording on the Sony UX10 camcorder has the added bonus of recording to three separate media, including 8GB of internal memory, which can hold almost an hour of video (1920 HD mode). Movies can be transferred from the internal memory and media card to the disc, while photos can be transferred from internal memory to the media card. Its dubbing button gains quick access to the menu to dub movies by scene or by date as well as dub separate video files incrementally to either DVD or media card.
Sony HDR 10 camcorder - Bluetooth microphone
Designed to deliver first-rate video performance with its Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* optics and Super SteadyShot optical image stabilization for smooth video and clearer photos, the AVCHD UX10 also features enhanced audio capability. The Sony HDR 10 records in Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround sound and a newly integrate built-in zoom microphone that zooms the audio along with the video for clear recordings of subjects. The UX10 camcorder is also compatible with Sony’s ECM-HW1 Bluetooth microphone for recording sound wirelessly at distances up to 100 feet.
