Sony HDR-TG3E Handycam answers
Ater posting my Sony HDR-TG3E Handycam unboxing video a few days ago I received a large number of questions about the camera so I thought I would put all the answers in one place along with a few sample images and videos that you’ve been asking for.
The TG3 records videos in AVCHD format on to an MSPro Duo card. At its highest, 1920x1080i, setting you can record around 40 minutes of video on a 4GB card.
The TG3 can record in 720p mode.
When shooting stills the highest resultion is 4MP for 4:3 format and 3MP for 16:9
‘Steady shot’ mode is included.
According to my contact at Sony, who supplied the demo unit, they have yet to fix the retail price of the TG3. They are expecting to do that this week but say that they anticipate that it will be around the £600 mark.
The TG3 should be released in the UK on the 1st May 2008
You can see the full spec. of the TG3 on the Sony website here.

You can also download the raw MTS file from here. The video was recorded at the highest quality setting and is straight from the camera.
