Eco Factor: Environmentally-friendly camcorder powered by solar energy.

Jetyo has unveiled its new HDV-T900 camcorder that is powered by onboard solar panels. The 720p30 model records your holiday memories to SDHC memory cards using a fixed-zoom lens. With no optical zoom, the camcorder promises an 8x digital zoom.

The device features a solar cell on the backside of a three-inch LCD display, which fuels a set of 4 AA batteries that are used for power. With 5.0 MP hardware resolution and 12.0 MP resolution using software interpolation, the camcorder can take night shots as well using a white LED. Engadget states that the solar panel onboard might take about 25 hours to recharge one battery and there are, of course, four used in there.
