Product Description
The new waterproof Sanyo Xacti E1 camcorder captures stunning digital video and beautiful 6 Megapixel photos on land and even underwater. This powerful little camcorder easily records both full 640x480 resolution videos at 30 frames-per-minute and high-resolution 6-megapixel digital still images. Incorporating a watertight design, the Xacti E1 is capable of recording full motion video five feet underwater for up to 30 minutes. Capture dramatic photos and video footage underwater to share with less adventurous family members and friends. Highly advanced AVC/H.264 video compression makes posting movies on the Internet or e-mailing them to friends and family easier by reducing the file size. Get high-quality video recording up to 10 hours of full motion video with an 8 GB SDHC memory card (TV-HQ mode). The large 2.5-inch LCD flips out from the camera and rotates up to 285 degrees on an axis that allows you to take great video or still images.

 Amazing camera September 8, 2008
The Sanyo Xacti is amazing. Its small and compact, waterproof, takes excellent video and surprisingly good still photos. Its almost the perfect camera. I would like to add HD support and a slightly better autofocus system but other than that, pretty impressive.
Very very good September 5, 2008
The light is very good in the pictures.
Very portable. The battery could be better.
I recommend.
Great product and Easy to use September 4, 2008
It's very simple to use and you don't need to read a manual.
Multi use for photos and video so it's the only thing you need for travel. Waterproof makes it great for rainy days and any water related activities even you are not in the water literally.
An outdoorsman MUST HAVE! August 28, 2008
You need this camcorder if you do a lot of outdoors activities. I have higher end cameras I take with me camping but I leave them in the trailer all weekend because I'm afraid they'll get damaged (like the last two!). This camera is VERY high quality construction, flip out screen hinge is tight and all the components feel solid. Definitely get extra batteries as the battery doesn't last all that long (maybe I need to adjust my screen brightness?? had not had it long enough to know), but with a large capacity sd card (bought an 8gb card for under 20 bucks on Amazon) you can shoot all weekend (the movie timer showed 6 hours of record time on an empty card)... I love this camera already, highly recommend it!
PS- the video review was what did it for me, those people did a great job!
pretty dope camera August 28, 2008
This video camera is a steal for what it can do. I just got it and have been recording a lot of concerts and outings with friends and it shoots really good video. Its also great that it fits in your pocket. I still recommend carrying around a camera because the pics dont come out that good at nite, plus its kinda hard to have some stranger take a pic of you and your friends. By the time they figure out how to take a pic, the moment has passed. Its great that its waterproof, records in ipod format and that you can use sd cards to record on.
The things I dont like about it: I wish there was more optical zoom, the battery life is about 45 mins to an hour of continuous recording. The price of aftermarket batteries are cheap, but they dont last as long as the sanyo battery. The picture quality in low light conditions sucks. The color of the camera is kinda funky, but the things that it can do makes up for it.
Overall, I still recommend getting it. Great price, great video & sound quality, perfect size for carrying in your pocket, sd cards, cheap aftermarket batteries, and records in ipod fomat.
