Boston, MA (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) November 9, 2005 -- 2005 has been an attention-grabbing year for the camcorder industry, with technology developments that have pushed all boundaries and exceeded consumer expectations, and CamcorderInfo.com has been hard at work reviewing and analyzing every model on the market. To make shopping for home electronics easier this holiday season, publisher Robin Liss and CamcorderInfo.com announce their annual selections for the best camcorders of the yearthe CamInfo Select 2005. The year 2005 has been one of the most eventful periods in the camcorder industry, and we have worked diligently to evaluate each model using our standardized testing methods and objective review practices to arrive at our product recommendations, the CamInfo Select 2005, said Robin Liss, Internet entrepreneur and founder of CamcorderInfo.com.
In the past year, weve seen the rapid rise of DVD camcorders and the first consumer-friendly high-definition models and non-tape-based camcorders become popular.
Weve reviewed all our testing data, debated and deliberated, and we feel confident that our choices represent the best of the best in home video.
No consumers should be without this buying guide when they drive to the electronics store or log onto the web to do their shopping.CamInfo Select 2005s sought-after recognition for Camcorder of the Year goes to the Sony HDR-HC1, the worlds first affordable high-definition camcorder that breaks new technological ground yet comes with an accessible price tag.When we got our hands on the Sony HDR-HC1 we were floored by the stunning beauty of the pictures it produced, said Liss. The colors were rich and well defined, and the sharpness was out of this world.
The HDR-HC1 has finally opened up the world of HD to the masses. No matter how experienced the CamcorderInfo.com reviewers are, the novice user is never far from their minds and Sony, which has made simplicity the hallmark of its camcorders, earns their nod as the manufacturer offering the Best Ease of Use Product Line.
One of the biggest surprises of the year was our favorite DVD camcorder, Sonys DCR-DVD403. The DCR-DVD403 shattered everyones preconceptions about DVD camcorders , delivering remarkable quality and ease of use together in a DVD cam a package we thought wed never see, said Liss.
According to the staff of CamcorderInfo.com, its never been a more satisfying or exciting time to be in the market for a camcorder, with innovations across all brands.
JVCs MiniDV GR-X5 camcorder and its sister, the flash media camcorder Everio GZ-MC500, also broke the barriers of what we thought was possible, said Liss. The X5 produced the best still photos weve seen out of a camcorder and the MC500 brought a new level of quality to the non-tape-based arena.
And we cant forget Canons Optura 600, which, although a later release, packed performance and quality into the matchbox style.Panasonic, meanwhile, lands the accolade of Best Manual Control Product Line as both its low- and high-end camcorders boast a huge range of shutter speeds, aperture settings, white balance, and gain control.
Once again, we saw Panasonic sweep the mid-range camcorder categories with a great camcorder line that mixes high-end features into the consumer-friendly price range, said Liss.The CamInfo Select 2005 winning list includes:"???Camcorder of the Year:

Dante's "Inferno" is the showcased setting for an exciting new book from William P. Haynes that reviewers are calling an engrossing and vivid haunting story. Author Nancy Jackson calls Mr. Haynes an author to keep your eye on. Louise Bohmer states, "This intense tale will remain with you long after the lights are out."The Curse of Mesphisto's Seed is the eternal struggle between the forces of good and evil for a person's soul.
