Hands-free filming: Toshiba presents the new mini camcorder CAMILEO CLIP

Neuss, Germany, 1st September 2011 – At IFA 2011 in Berlin, Toshiba Europe GmbH showcased its new extremely small and lightweight digital action camcorder with Full HD resolution. The CAMILEO CLIP, featuring a robust clip at its rear side to attach the camcorder to the user’s jacket, is targeted at users who want to capture thrilling moments during outdoor activities without the need to hold the device in their hands. The CAMILEO CLIP will come in various colour variations: dark blue, hot red, bright yellow and snow white. It will be available in the fourth quarter 2011 in Europe.

Look, no hands!

At only 85g and 46.5mm x 80mm the CAMILEO CLIP is Toshiba’s first Full HD mini camcorder. Thanks to its ruggedized and splash-proof casing, the CAMILEO CLIP is a tough companion for all outdoor activities – in both good and bad weather, while sailing or biking for instance. Attached to the jacket with its robust clip on the rear side, the camcorder takes action shots from the user’s point of view while leaving the hands free for action. The CAMILEO CLIP is always in place to capture great moments.

Bright and brilliant results even at twilight

The embedded 5 Megapixel CMOS sensor with back side illumination technology (BSI) catches wild adventures and beautiful scenery in Full HD quality and bright and natural colours – even at twilight. A 10x digital zoom allows for far-off shots in video and photo mode. The electronic image stabiliser (EIS) provides for high-quality recording and avoids blurry clips.

A reliable companion

The CAMILEO CLIP supports micro SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards with a capacity of up to 64GB. The CAMILEO Uploader software offers an easy way to upload clips and photos direct to social platforms. miniHDMI® and Mini-USB.2.0 interfaces provide for hassle-free connectivity to electronic devices like TVs, notebooks, and tablets.
