JVC GC-PX1 can’t decide if it’s cam or camcorder, does 1080p60 video and 10.6 megapixel stills
February 3, 2011 No Comment
We missed JVC ‘s GX-PX1 camera when it was at CES , just a concept at that point but now getting more real. Impress got a little hands-on time with the curious model that features an incredibly slim, compact-like body behind a hunky, camcorder-like lens assembly. It’ll do 1080p60 at 36Mbps, writing to SDXC or 32GB of internal memory, can capture 10 megapixel stills and, if you don’t mind stepping down to 640 x 360, will manage 300 frames per second. There’s a tiltable LCD on the back and a 10x optically stabilized zoom lens up front. The camera is due to be released later this month, but JVC hasn’t seen fit to tell us how much it’ll cost just yet.

Our initial reaction to the Bernstein Research chart above is to wonder what value Nokia’s massive R&D spending has achieved. Sadly, that’s our second and third reaction, too, having spent some time with the company’s Symbian OS. Let’s just hope all that money was poured into MeeGo or some other megaprofitable ecosystem that it will ” build or join ” in 2011. Update : Added a snapshot of Nokia’s R&D spending from 2007 and 2008 (when the company topped the EU with US$7.24 billion spent on R&D) after the break.
