Sony video editor/burner
Sony Japan has announced the upcoming VDR-MC5, a device for burning camcorder videos. Rather than hook up a camcorder to a computer, users can use the MC5 to author both HD- and SD-quality videos, and even conduct some simple editing using a display and a control pad. Further adding to options is a card reader, which can pull photos from CF, xD, SD/SDHC and Memory Stick cards, and burn them to slideshow discs complete with music. The MC5 works with both MiniDV- and hard drive-based camcorders, and should ship to Japan August 10th for 30,000 yen ($246). [via Akihabara News]
