As I have mention before, Panasonic will also launch a AVCHD camcorder with DVD-R recording capabilities, here is it, the HDC-DX1. The HDC-DX1 AVCHD camcorder uses DVD-RAM/-R/-RW and DVD-R double-layer (DL) discs as recording media.
The camcorder features 3CCD sensor, 5.1-channel surround sound and the HD crystal engine can processes images twice as quickly as progressive scan CCDs and it supports AVCHD and uses the MPEG4 AVC/H.264 technology.
It will be available in Japan on December 15th.
