This is the new 3rd generation P30 from Elmo, the P30HD. This camera has raised the bar and offers an unsurpassed viewing experience in native high definition. With HDMI connectivity, a built in live LCD preview screen, and a compact body, this lightweight unit is for the demanding presenter that will only accept the best that money can buy. The unit folds up nicely and it can be easily taken to a business meeting or courtroom. With a weight of around ten pounds, you will not get a more powerful camera into a body this light and compact.
One of the most noticeable features of the new HD model is the high definition 3.4MP camera. The 3.4MP camera is a major upgrade from the old P30’s anaemic 1.3MP. The result of this upgrade is clearer, sharper, and more detailed images and videos. Colour reproduction is also outstanding and true to life. With the increased resolution Elmo also has maintained its impressive frame refresh rate which is 30 frames per second. This camera is mounted on a free-angle arm that makes shooting 3D objects a breeze at any angle. The result is an unprecedented video quality that is smooth, in real high definition and produced in vivid colours.
Generally, the rule is with higher resolution you can zoom while sustaining a clear unpixilated image, and the engineers at Elmo did not miss this point. The new HD has greater optical and digital zoom resulting in crisp images even at its 128X zoom. The clarity of the image is improved by the use a wider focal range making the P30HD hands down a leader in image quality and capability.
Other value added additions built into the P30HD, such as the variety of connection ports from the P30 in addition to the new HDMI connection that will give the user the ability to project in true 1080p. Having the ability to record and project in true HD makes this presenter ideal for medical and courtroom presentations, where clarity and ability to see fine detail is essential. Another newly added feature of the P30HD is the USB flash drive memory option, which truly adds to the accessibility and the usability of this unit. The USB port allows you to save what is being recorded on the spot to a flash drive saving time and hassle.
Some unexpected improvements made to the P30HD are the 3 user settings that save the individual pre-sets for up to three individuals. Also, new to the P30HD software, improvements allow the user to highlight, scroll (in zoom mode), edit, use a split screen mode, and record in a picture in picture display. Finally for those who feel that no digital presenter is complete without accessories, options include a handy slide show adapter and an indispensable MS-30 5” colour monitor and shoe. These items will augment the effectiveness of the unit and impress your audience. The new P30HD is truly for those who are looking for the best camera money can buy without breaking the bank.
