Come March 2006, Sony will release the XDCAM HD camcorder which will support the recording of high definition footage directly to a Blu-ray disc. The new XDCAM HD camcorder will record at 1080i in a variety of bit-rates: 25 Mbps, 35 Mbps and 18 Mbps.
While most high-end camcorders record to tape, Sony took a different route for the XDCAM. Footage is captured and then stored onto the disc in MPEG-2 format. The disc is rewritable and allows for fast transfers to a harddrive and easy search of clips. Unlike tape, a video producer can skip to a clip shot in the middle of a shoot - tape users have to rewind or fast-forward to a clip.

| UberGizmo - Samsung shows its new digital camera in Beijin, China. The Samsung Digimax Pro is a hybrid SLR that has a high-powered optical zoom (28-420mm or 15X). The other particularity of the camera is the 3.5" LCD screen on the back (yikes! it's like having a full PDA screen on a digital camera).
It is called "hybrid SLR" because the lens is not interchangeable (unlike a real SLR), although it is possible to mount optical converters to boost the zoom further. (Without image stabilization (IS) I don't think that it's a good idea).
Although the specs are not out yet, the name (815) suggests an 8 Megapixel resolution. The rumored release date is July or August 2005
