CAMILEO X416 and X400 Camcorders: Unleash the artist within
Users can explore their creativity with a traditional barrel-style camcorder that has optimal power, performance and storage for everyday video recording on the go. The X416 is a top-of-the line CAMILEO camcorder that offers an impressive 23x optical zoom and 120x digital zoom to maximize their shot range. Consumers can take advantage of its extensive 16GB2 memory capacity, which allows for up to three hours3 of Full HD video, as well as support for up to 128GB of additional storage using memory cards (not included). The X416 also doubles as a digital camera, producing 16 megapixel interpolated still photos.
The CAMILEO X400 camcorder’s powerful 23x optical zoom lens and Electronic Image Stabilization helps users fill the frame without destroying the quality of the video, while its handy Pause button makes it possible to stop wasting storage space and reduce file clutter by recording multiple moments into a single file. The X400 offers similar features to the X416, but relies on external memory through the SD/SDHC/SDXC card slot.
Both the CAMILEO X416 and X400 camcorders offer a supplemental built-in microphone jack that allows users to complement flawless filming with ideal audio support. These camcorders serve as the perfect companions to capture those can’t-miss moments.
