Panasonic HX-WA10

Description

Capture brilliant Full-HD movies with this waterproof vertical camcorder
Take the HX-WA10 underwater as deep as three metres for up to 60 minutes for clear, bright underwater photos and videos in the pool or ocean. Swim along with colourful tropical fish, capture the beauty of coral reefs or get action footage of friends diving and snorkeling. Of course, “waterproof” also means problem-free shooting in the rain or snow.*

Shoot dynamic, high resolution masterpieces
Despite its light weight and slim, stylish design, the HX-WA10 delivers images in breathtaking Full HD (1920x1080) beauty. BSI (back/side illumination) technology has improved the sensitivity of the CMOS sensor, so it’s now possible to shoot images with high resolution, Full HD quality in dim light, like interiors and parties. In addition to an optical 5x zoom, the new, high quality Image Engine of the HX-WA10 offers a flexible shooting range, from wide angle to dynamic 12x zooming, without no degradation of image quality**.(Full HD video with 1920x1080 pixels in Panasonic Vertical camcorders refers to video recordings with 1920 pixels in the horizontal direction and 1080 pixels in the vertical direction).

Capture stunning still images
When it comes to still pictures, the HX-WA10 shoots 16-megapixel high resolution images. Depending on the situation, you can switch from high-quality photos or videos using your thumb to press the desired button, without having to change modes. You can even capture two-megapixel stills while recording a video, simply by pressing the ‘stills’ button***.

iA does the thinking for you
No more bothersome settings changes, either, as the iA (intelligent Auto) does all the work, capturing perfect stills and videos every time. Intelligent Scene Selector analyses the shooting situation and automatically switches to the correct scene mode. Face Detection automatically adjusts the exposure to suit the ambient light so faces are always bright and easy to see, and the EIS (Electrical Image Stabiliser) corrects the blurring caused by hands-shake.3M WaterproofFull-HD moviesiA Intelligent AutoSD card feature
