    • Image Sensor Size: 1/2.3" (6.17 x 4.55mm)
    • Effective Pixels: 64 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
    • Standardized Video Resolution: 8K (4320p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
  • General
    • Brand: Vivitar
    • Model Number: DVR8K-BLK-STK-4
    • Product Name: 8K Digital Camcorder
    • Color: Black
  • Imaging
    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
    • Image Sensor Size: 1/2.3" (6.17 x 4.55mm)
    • Digital Zoom: 18x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
  • Focus
    • Auto/Manual Focus: Automatic
    • Focus Modes: Automatic
  • Exposure Control
    • Minimum Aperture: f/4 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
    • Maximum Aperture: f/1.94 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
    • Maximum Focal Length: 8 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
    • White Balance Modes: auto (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
    • Effective Pixels: 64 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
  • Video
    • Standardized Video Resolution: 8K (4320p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)

Q: Does this camcorder need to have an external mic , or does it have a good internal mic? I record long videos with live sounds . I tried 2 different vivitar 4k and the internal mic was very very bad .

A: The sound is pathetic, awful, substandard, and none-existing. The picture is fine. I now have two of them, the original,and the replacement that was mailed to me an hour ago. Both have no sound recording ability. After contacting Vivitar, the rep could barely speak english, and tried to send me a third one. They know absolutely nothing about their own product, and suggested I call HSN for better help. Maybe, HSN will tell me to call Vivitar back. B.S. on both ends. Never again....

  • Rated 1 out of 5 stars

    Skip this camera a flip phone is better

    I have had this camera for almost a year now. In that time it has preformed very poorly. The video quality is nonlight adaptive meaning that if you are filming in a living room or even outside the picture will appear grainy and dim. I have tried using this camera for just small things since it is easier to carry compared to a more heavy duty camera the audio on this camera is terrible to describe it. I have even tried using external microphones to gain better quality to no avail. The 3.5 mm port for audio is outdated and when using an adapter to a usb-c port it is non existent. The usb-c port on the back is labeled for charging and nothing else. Thankfully I have been lucky to record what was necessary on my phone (iPhone 15 pro) with better performance in every area.
