Vado HD 720p camcorder daily deal today

by Jeb Stuart on August 11, 2009

Amazon has slashed the price of the Vado HD 720p camcorder as today’s daily deal from $229 MSRP to $99. The pocket-sized high-definition camcorder from Creative Labs will record up to 2 hours of HD footage at 720p on its 8GB internal Flash memory.

The camcorder will also hold twice the amount of video at VGA resolution, if you can bring yourself to do such a thing. It also features a 2 inch LCD display and 2x digital zoom (although I would recommend just getting closer to your subject if you care at all about video quality).

High-definition resolution is 1280×720p capturing at 30 frames-per-scond. AVI video format is compressed using H.264. Outputs include USB and HDMI (cables included).

The Vado HD is 3.9 inches tall and 2.2 inches wide, and weighs just 3.5 oz. Check out the Deal of the Day at Amazon. (Hint: You may have to be subscribed to Amazon Daily Deals to get the full 57% off, otherwise, you may only see 47% off.)
