video for example clips- I bumped my compression up a bit so you could see close to original quality in this video. Also, here is a link to an original file if you want to play with it in your editing software (right click or ctrl click and save link as): SANY0011.MP4. The E1 still uses the MPEG-4 format, but the codec has changed to h.264. I think that has made a huge difference in the quality of the image. Thanks to Tajee from Voice Bank for letting us play with this camera! If you’re looking to upgrade, I would highly recommend this camera, even over the Xacti HD series, whose audio is crummy compared to the E1 (though the E1 does not shoot in HD or in 16:9 widescreen like the HD series). Check out the E1 in the Freevlog Store if you’re ready to take the plunge!
