HP Gets Into The Pocket Cam Game With The V5020u


What’s there to say? It’s a pocket cam.

It does 1080p, has a 2″ LCD on the back, and records mediocre video video to an SDHC card. So far, so like every other one out there, but the HP has a couple tricks up its sleeve. It’s got a gyro for image stabilization, which is “handy” with these light cameras that can’t seem to sit still when you’re shooting. It’s also got a motion detection feature, which I assume starts to take video when something crosses its path.

It’ll cost $159 and should be available in October.
