We then watch the footage on an HD monitor to determine the resolution, which is measured in line widths. We test video resolution by shooting a DSC Labs resolution chart under a bright, even light. It's capable of performing on a higher level than the Sony HDR-TG1, but you'll have to fiddle with settings to make that happen. That being said, the camcorder still put up a tremendous fight against a variety of different HD models. It's a device that is meant to be manually adjusted and perfected by people who enjoy spending their time playing with settings and controls. These images help establish the fact that the VPC-HD1010 doesn't have the best automatic controls. The Sanyo's picture looks nice, but the entire image is lacking simply because it's a bit darker. The image from the Canon is much brighter and captures more detail as a result. In these two images, again side-by-side with the Canon HG20, the Sanyo HD1010 shows off its bad auto exposure. The thing is, even at 60i, the Sanyo VPC-HD1010 is a strong performer-second only to the HDR-TG1 in the ultra-compact camcorder class. The question is, what will most users do the bulk of their shooting in? 30P mode doesn't have much of a different look than 60i (things appear to move a tiny bit slower), but the image quality is clearly superior at the slower frame rate. In bright light at 60i, the VPC-HD1010 has a blurry, artifacting image when you look closely, but in 30P everything is crystal clear. Looking at the blowups above, it's hard to imagine the two Sanyo images came from the same camcorder. The Sanyo even had a sharper image in 30P than the Panasonic HDC-HS100 or SD100. Besides besting the Sony HDR-TG1 it also captured more detail than Sony's HDR-CX12 and HDR-SR12. The Sanyo captured a startlingly sharp image that rivaled some of the best consumer HD camcorders (although still not quite a match for Canon or the Samsung SC-HMX20). Shooting at 30P, the VPC-HD1010 turned everything up a notch and blew the Sony HDR-TG1 out of the water. The 300fps may fascinate some, but experienced videographers won't be impressed by the low video quality. The resulting video sure is slow motion, but it's also a horrible, youtube-ish quality. While it can be a neat feature to show off to your friends, you must record in 448 x 336 (standard definition) resolution to utilize the slow frame rate. The Sanyo HD1010 has received some buzz for its 300 frames per second video mode-capable of capturing extremely slow motion. The Sony HDR-TG1 does not have any 30P or 24P frame rate options. In comparison, the Canon HF100 (along with most of Canon's HD camcorders) features both a 24P and 30P mode, while the Panasonic HDC-SD100 and HS100 both have a 24P setting.

The 30P rate may also be more compatible with certain editing software or computer programs. 30P offers a different aesthetic than 60i and it does wonders boosting performance in areas with lots of detail or in low light situations. Having alternate frame rates is a wonderful option for Sanyo to include. One recorded at 60i (60 fields per second), while the other captured at 30P (30 frames per second).

Sanyo has eight different recording settings, but we focused only on the two 1920 x 1080 full HD settings in our testing.
