Hard Drive Camcorders With Face Detection
The HDR-SR12 ($1400) is one of two new Sony camcorders that can take 10-megapixel photos, a remarkably still image resolution for a camcorder. The camcorder features a 120GB hard drive, and includes face detection technology that automatically identifies up to eight faces and corrects focus, exposure, and color controls for both video and still photos. A second camcorder, the HDR-SR11 ($1,200) which has a 60GB hard drive, also can take 10-megapixel photos and has the face detection technology.
