Product Description
Amazon.com Review
This camcorder's incredibly easy-to-use touch screen, combined with high-quality Hi8 recording, a powerful 220x zoom, and a wide selection of both fun and useful features, make it a real standout. If you want all the options of a high-end camcorder, but can't stand fiddling with a ton of buttons, the Sharp VL-H890U is a good choice.
Product Description
Sharp Viewcam camcorders offer instant playback in color with sound so there is no need to wait until you get home to see what you recorded. Never before has recording videos been this easy or this much fun! Sharp's Hi8 Viewcams offer better resolution than standard 8mm camcorders giving you an amazingly vivid picture. Hi8 extends the performance of standard 8mm to near-professional heights. This gives you an amazingly vivid picture with superior color resolution and greater detail.Sharp's VL-H890U has one of the most unique designs ever seen in a consumer camcorder. Instead of the palmcorder approach, where your hand grips either the camera's body or a separate handle, Sharp uses the approach most of us have use when shooting still photography. The camera and LCD display are extremely flexible, letting you swivel the camera or the LCD independently of each other a full 270 degrees. Because you can swivel the fairly large 3-1/2-inch LCD to the front of the camera, you can easily put yourself (and see yourself) in the shot without having someone operate the camera. And the VL-H890U does have one of the biggest LCDs you can get on a camcorder. Overall, this camcorder's incredibly easy-to-use touch screen, combined with high-quality Hi8 recording, a powerful 220x zoom, and a wide selection of both fun and useful features, make it a real standout.

This camcorder's incredibly easy-to-use touch screen, combined with high-quality Hi8 recording, a powerful 220x zoom, and a wide selection of both fun and useful features, make it a real standout. If you want all the options of a high-end camcorder, but can't stand fiddling with a ton of buttons, the Sharp VL-H890U is a good choice.
The Sharp VL-H890U uses Sharp's unique Viewcam design, which makes it easy to hold and shoot with. The body and LCD screen rotate separately from the lens, making it easy to shoot above your head or include yourself in the picture. Power, record on/off, and telephoto switches are large and easy to reach.
The Sharp VL-H890U's knockout feature is its touch-screen capability. Its large 3.5-inch LCD screen lets you click through the feature and VCR menus with the touch of a finger. This is the first camcorder we reviewed where we didn't have to delve into the manual to figure out how to set the various options--the touch-screen interface was so easy we figured everything out on our own.
The Sharp VL-H890U also includes a great selection of advanced--and fun--features, including a powerful 220x digital zoom and digital image stabilization. It offers a useful range of preset and manual exposure settings, fade capability, and fun picture effects (including the unique Stretch and Slim effects). The Viewcam also has snapshot and still image capabilities.
The Sharp VL-H890U uses the Hi8 format, which makes for extraordinarily sharp and colorful video--digital is the only format that will give you better quality. The only drawback to Hi8 is that you can't play the tapes in your VCR; you have to connect the camcorder to your TV for playback.
Pros:
- Easy-to-use touch screen
- Powerful 220x digital zoom
- 3.5-inch swivel LCD screen
- Wide range of exposure and picture effects
Cons:
- Doesn't come with a light
