Sanyo Xacti VPC-CA100 HD camcorder
Saw this at Bluewater today and it looks good. Its waterproof and it works underwater.
With their online code its £280. Its only been out about a week and theres no customer reviews on it yet. Does anyone have any info on it? Is it a good bit of kit for the cash? http://uk.sanyo.com/Products/View/VPC-CA100EXBK

Re: Sanyo Xacti VPC-CA100 HD camcorder
I have had one for over 2 years
probably an earlier model (not HD) can go in swimming pools been left outdoors in pouring rain - to record some site work has been in a bag hit by HGV on motorway (don't ask) If it ever fails, I WILL get another basic editing in camera simple s/w to playback each battery gives about 1 hr and 2GB card takes over 2 hours video SMcG in Glasgow |

Re: Sanyo Xacti VPC-CA100 HD camcorder
Well it arrived on Tuesday I tried it out and now its going back!
Its seems a reasonable bit of kit but its not worth its full price of £350. When using the "pistol" grip the buttons are too hard to use or press thus making the photo or video jerk. If it was only £150 I would have kept it.
