Talk about ending the week with a bang. HP on Friday announced five point-and-shoot digital cameras and three camcorders, all eight of which are aimed at the mainstream crowd and priced no higher than $199. What's most remarkable about this is that half the new models sport a touchscreen display.
Of particular interest are the V5061u and V5560u camcorders. Both come with 3-inch touchscreen LCD displays and are some of the least expensive touch-enabled camcorders around capable of shooting in 1080p. The V5560 adds 5X optical zoom to the mix and runs $199, while the V5061u is priced at $169.
On the point-and-shoot front, the CW450t ($109) and PW460t ($149) boast 2.7-inch and 3-inch touchscreen displays, respectively, along with a newly designed touch interface for viewing photos with a swipe of a finger. Both also boast 4X optical zoom and support up to 32GB SD/SDHC memory.

I've a bit experience with the V5061u of my friend. It is SO small and lightweight but the battery has quite long life. By the way, You can't expect it too much from its below rated of lens if you think about full HD 1080p camcorder.

Really interested in the $200 V5560u. I've always loved HP products because of the high-quality parts they use. I wish it takes a bigger memory card though - 16GB is kinda small IMO. SanDisk just released a 64GB SD card, and it would've been awesome to be able to use that. But at $200, it's a really reasonable price for an HD camcorder.
