Sanyo VPC-WH1 review

 

A waterproof camcorder that's great for fooling about with on holiday, but most beach fans will be better off with a video-capable waterproof camera.

Sanyo Xacti VPC-WH1 review

 

A neat waterproof gadget, but a tad too niche to recommend over regular camcorders

Works great in extreme conditions, HD ready shots are sharp

Digital zoom at 1500x is a gimmick, 2MP stills are poor

Sanyo Xacti WH1 Review

 

Although I was somewhat disappointed with the still shot quality I think that Sanyo have made a durable and reliable video camera that you would feel confident taking up the ski slopes, going snorkelling, or even just being able to take great holiday...

Sanyo VPC-WH1 HD Waterproof Flash Memory Camcorder Camcorder Review

 

Waterproof down to 10 feet below the surface ; Inexpensive

Limited automatic and manual controls ; Mediocre image quality

For many users, this camcorder's waterproof housing and low price will compensate for its average image quality.

Sanyo Xacti VPC-WH1

 

Waterproof 30x optical zoom Easy to use Battery Life (more than 3hrs) Weight(less)

1. The zoom motor working stays in the footage 2. The footage is acceptable (e.g., it's better then MiniDV) , but it's not HD 3. It's almost impossible to see what you're filming underwater due to the glare in the LCD screen.

The Sanyo VPC-WH1 is very light and easy to use i like the battery life ,the image quality is very good when used during the day time ,also the zoom is good and the sound quality is good..

The bad points are that its not good for the night the still picture quality is not that good.
