Seems to be "DV cameras which can also shoot stills day" today. Sony have updated their ever popular (yep, I've got one) DCR-PC100 MiniDV camcorder. Why should we care? Because it was one of the first DV camcorders to feature a stills facility, it also did this with a 1 megapixel CCD, which the new model retains (1152 x 864 JPEG stills onto Memory Stick). What else is new? It's got a pop-up flash and MPEG clip mode.. a sure declaration that Sony are moving forward in the integration of DV and digital stills cameras.
