Panasonic HX WA10 Waterproof
Dual HD Flash Memory Camcorder:
R 5 219.00
Ready to go where you are - even underwater - the Panasonic HX-WA10B HD
Waterproof Dual Camcorder is a high-definition powerhouse disguised in a
sleek and stylish form. With best-of-class features such as 12x Advanced
Zoom, 3D Digital Noise Reduction, intelligent scene modes and Face
Detection - all in the service of a sensitive, 16-megapixel backlit CMOS
sensor - the WA10 lets you capture and share full-HD memories with
unprecedented ease.
Video and photos are equally well served by this waterproof (up to 9.8
ft) wonder. Whether shooting 1080p/720p video, standard-definition
video, or 16MP stills, you're assured of capturing impressive
high-quality images. Twin Movie/Photo buttons let you quickly switch
between shooting video and stills, while the camera's Intelligent Auto
(iA) functions accurately read the scene and do the heavy lifting for
you. In Photo mode you can also choose your own scene setting or color
mode, or switch the camera to Manual and take pictures the old-fashioned
way.
The WA10's 3" widescreen LCD not only rotates 285deg., it provides
7 levels of brightness, helping you compose your shots from nearly any
angle and still keep your image in view. The 5x optical zoom, meanwhile,
expands to 12x in 30p video mode, so you can get closer to your subject
with no image degradation. Face Detection, Nine-point Auto Focus and
electronic image stabilization keep subjects in focus and images steady.
Other standout features include Macro Shooting for getting up close and
personal, simultaneous Movie/Photo capture for grabbing 2MP stills while
shooting video and the handy High-Speed Reverse Consecutive Shooting
function, which captures a sequence of images from before you hit the
shutter button. From the comfort of your living room to the natural
wonders beneath the Great Barrier Reef, the HX-WA10B is your go-to
camera for capturing life's most vibrant moments.
Features:
| Take the HX-WA10 underwater as deep as 9.8
feet (3 meters) and get some great still or moving images in a
pool or the ocean. Swim along with tropical fish, capture shots of
a beautiful coral reef, or get action footage of a friend
snorkeling |
| The HX-WA10 renders images in breathtaking,
Full-HD (1920 x 1080) beauty. The sensitivity of the CMOS sensor
has been improved by BSI (Backside Illumination) sensor
technology, so you can record clear images even when in dimly lit
places--like indoors and at parties |
| This New High-Quality Image Engine enables
both excellent image quality and a compact body. Its
image-processing algorithms and architecture were designed for
high-speed processing, signal processing systems were optimized
for noise reduction and power consumption was reduced |
| In addition to an optical 5x zoom, the New
High-Quality Image Engine of the HX-WA10 lets you shoot motion
images with a maximum 12x Advanced Zoom with no image quality
degradation.* You can get a flexible shooting range, from
wide-angle to dynamic zooming |
| This powerful function senses the shooting
conditions and automatically makes the settings and activates
functions that will deliver optimal results. With both motion and
still images, iA does the bothersome settings for you and makes it
easy to capture beautiful, well-focused images |
| The Intelligent Scene Selector function
analyzes the shooting situation and automatically switches the
Dual Camera to the suitable scene mode that will give you optimal
results. Scene modes are Portrait, Scenery, Spotlight and Low
Light, for a range of exposure options |
| Face Detection automatically senses the
ambient lighting and adjusts the exposure accordingly, so faces
are bright and easy to see. The focus also prioritizes the faces
and skin tones are smoothed |
| The E.I.S. (Electrical Image Stabilizer)
system helps to correct the kind of hand-shake blurring that often
happens with compact cameras. Record all the images you want,
whether you're shooting while walking, or taking self-portraits,
without having to worry about blurring |
| The HX-WA10 features a 3" widescreen
LCD monitor that allows the brightness to be adjusted in seven
levels. It also rotates through approximately 285deg., so you can
easily position it at your preferred angle |
| The twin shutter design gives you two
separate buttons for shooting still images or movies. Shoot either
type of image with single-finger operation and with no need to
switch modes. You can also shoot a photo at the same time as you
record a movie |
| The HX-WA10 uses a stereo microphone
speaker, letting you record motion images with lifelike stereo
sound |
| Shoot high-quality still images with
16-megapixel resolution. Depending on the situation, you can
flexibly shoot either high-quality photos or movies. You can also
capture 2MP still images while recording a movie by simply
pressing the Still button |
| The High-Speed Reverse Consecutive Shooting
function continues to capture images while the Still button is
pressed and then, by releasing the button when the desired scene
ends, the data that was input just prior to the button release is
recorded onto the Built-in Memory as consecutive images |
| Get as close as 1cm when shooting small
objects such as flowers or accessories. Enjoy creative shooting
with high-resolution photos |
| The HX-WA10 automatically focuses on your
subject with its nine-point auto focus, even if it isn't located
in the center of the frame. This prevents your shots from going
out of focus |
| Give the image some warmth with Sepia mode,
make it extra cool with Monochrome mode, or capture beautiful skin
tones with Soft Skin mode. Match your shooting to your mood and
subject |
| Select the exposure compensation, aperture
priority and manual mode to shoot. This allows manual shooting to
match the situation |
| It's so easy to upload your images onto
YouTube or Facebook. The included HD Writer VE 1.0 software
(Windows OS only) lets you post movies with easy operation |
| MPEG-4 files are widely used because they
combine video and sound in the same file. As a result, the files
can be quickly and easily saved onto a PC and then uploaded onto
blogs or social networking sites to share with friends and family |
