Hammacher Schlemmer Shirtpocket Underwater Camcorder

 Hammacher Schlemmer Shirtpocket Underwater Camcorder

The word “shirtpocket” is included in the name of this camcorder because it can fit in an averaged-sized pocket on a man’s shirt. At a height of 5 inches, width of 3 inches, and a depth of 1½ inches, it is only slightly bigger than a deck of cards.

A portion of this small package can be flipped open to expose a 2½-inch TFT LCD color electronic viewfinder screen. This can be swiveled to allow you to capture photos and video images from different angles without having to stand on stools or crouch near the ground.

The camcorder has 8 megapixels of image sensor elements and can capture video images at 30 fps at a resolution rating of 640 x 480. For still pictures, resolution is at 3264 x 2448. With the 2GB SD memory card included in the camcorder, you can record up to 60 minutes of video images in MPEG4 format or 300 high-resolution JPEG still pictures. If you feel these are not enough, you can upgrade to an 8GB SD Card.

These images need not be limited to overland activities and sceneries. You can take the Shirtpocket Underwater Camcorder to a depth of 10 feet and capture videos of your kids performing underwater acrobatics, or still photos of the rich marine life under the waves.

The camera has a 4x digital zoom, a voice recorder, and can be used to play back MP3s. Uploading videos or photos to a computer is facilitated with a USB port and cable supplied with the camcorder. An AV cable is also included for connection and viewing on TV. A lithium ion battery that is fully charged in two hours can supply power for an hour and 55 minutes of continuous operation.
