Toshiba Camileo H30 Black Full HD Camcorder
Toshiba Camileo H30 Black is probably good in the palm of most hands. However, Toshiba has Velcro on the device are low, and it is still very loose, if secured at its narrowest point. As a result, the H30 will be shaking in your hand when you bend your fingers to help them, which can lead to discomfort and cramps. Also depends on the detached lens cap when it secured its brief cable from the hook and loop tape, very close to the lens. Move the camera too quickly and the cap is to swing wildly to unwanted cameos in material and knock against the camcorder body.
Menus and Modes
The H30 has four recording modes: 1080p/30fps, 720p/30fps, WVGA/60fps (wide-screen SD resolution) and VGA/30fps (4:3 SD resolution). For still images, provides the Camileo H30 16 megapixels, 10 megapixels and 3 megapixels. According to Toshiba H30 has a 10-megapixel CMOS sensor some interpolation with higher resolution stills.
For a $ 250 device, the H30 has a surprisingly high number of menus and buttons. Between still image mode and the options are familiar with options for resolution, white balance, scene effects (including stabilization and slow motion) and basic camcorder settings such as language and date / time.
predetermined, such as automatic white balance, daylight, fluorescent light lighting and tungsten is do not tinker limited so that users , and manually set. But Toshiba has covered most scenes and the Camileo H30 offers much more than with other Picture Control devices in its price class.
Switch to Playback mode and the touch-down menu loses much of its responsiveness. Cycling through the files in both still and video is frustratingly slow, and much better as an alternative to the touch screen. In addition, the selection of specific files for playback is an exercise in aggravation. The H30 rarely reacts to the first finger-tapping, and sometimes cycles through the thumbnails instead of playing the file.
Display
The Camileo H30 of 3.0-inch touch screen LCD display rotates 90 degrees and rotates by 180 Menu items can be accessed and controlled at the touch of a finger tip or a short slide. It is appropriate responses and provide enough real estate to 3.0 inches for large icons and easy-to-read fonts. However, there are no controls to adjust brightness, so that the screen difficult to see in direct sunlight.
Hidden under the LCD are a dedicated power button and the pre-record/YouTube Direct button that allows users photos 3 seconds before actually on board (with retroactive effect, the H30 does what in the frame before the record button was pressed hit) record and can directly upload videos to YouTube, if a computer connected via USB.
A slot opens on the palm side of the H30 to reveal the AV connector, HDMI output and USB port. Below the H30 a tripod mount and flip-open cover to the battery and SD card slot are hidden.
It comes in a color palette: a traditional metallic silver and black plastic with a glossy finish that does not hide stains and fingerprints well. Toshiba packs a microfiber cloth with the H30 is based on the cloth but the small size, it is likely to touch the display to keep clean. I expect that you have the double duty carrying cloth, wiping the screen and touch any other part of the H30 you.
Ergonomics and Controls
Most of the H30, the controls are accessed via the touch screen, but there are also a few special keys on the device, each easily accessible and labeled properly. The telephoto / wide-angle zoom button, which is that controls where you expect it: at the rear top of the H30. A playback button are MODE key to select the still pictures or video, OK / Record button for selecting menu items and photographing / recording, and a rolling wheel to navigate through all the menus on the back. There are also three points on the rolling wheel when it is pressed, either turn off the LCD display of icons and information deleted footage or enable / disable the flash light and a digital option.
The Camileo H30 looks and feels like a standard camcorder, how to balance them in the palm of your hand and secured with a Velcro closure, extending longitudinally across the device the H30 is a flash for still images (there are no external lighting for video) and a red LED that flashes when the unit is recording. At the top and is directly behind the lens of the speaker for video playback, and there are two sections of the microphone pinhole on the front of the flip-out 3-inch LCD touch screen. She weighs about 9 ounces, the Camileo H30 is on the smaller end with respect to the standard format camcorder, ideal for bags and backpacks, but too large to fit into a pocket.
Camera market is already flooded with cheap HD camcorder, but Toshiba thinks consumers can do with one another, especially a sport that features usually cost twice as much on found devices.
That's what we have with Toshiba H30, keyed an entry-level device between the high-end X100 and pocket-sized S20 in its new line of Camileo HD camcorder. For $ 250 at the start, the 1080p Camileo H30 with Flip pocket camcorders and other run in the price, but with a 5x optical zoom and picture.
