Panasonic HX-WA20 HD Camcorder review

 

Image quality isn't up there with the rest of Panasonic's camcorder range, but the HX-WA20 is a well-designed sports camera which is great for underwater footage

Panasonic HX-WA20

 

Fast start with when the screen door is open so you don't miss a shot. The slow mo is excellent. Still image is good and has a good wide angle. Good flash for a small unit. Good for left handers as well.

Controls are a bit difficult if wearing gloves. It's easy to pick the wrong option if your not paying attention.
