Swann Bolt HD action camera shoots 1080p video, 12MP stills with laser targeting
In SoMeIT (Social Media Information Technology), we are fully dedicated to satisfying all of your web needs, integrating your business to social networks.
We’re starting to wonder where introducing lasers doesn’t make everything better. Case in point: Swann’s just-shipping Bolt HD action camera. While the 1080p video, microSD storage and 135-degree lens will be familiar from the Freestyle HD we saw in 2011, there’s now a laser pointer to make sure the camera is on target when it isn’t an option to peek through the detachable LCD. A sleeker look and an upgrade to 12-megapixel still photos also give us reason to upgrade. It’s not a uniform move upwards from the Freestyle HD, however — the Bolt HD can only submerge to 32 feet versus the 65 of its ancestor. As long as your scuba dives don’t run that deep, however, the lower $200 price for the new camera might prove tempting.
