Panasonic SDR-SW21 Shock & Waterproof Camcorder (Orange)
You need a digital camcorder that has "tough" listed on its spec sheet, not some delicate gem of a camcorder. Presenting the SDR-SW21 from Panasonic. While this digital camcorder sports a 10x optical zoom, 2.7" LCD and 1/6" CCD image sensor for reliable video-recording performance, durability is "Feature No. 1" here. The SDR-SW21 is waterproof, shockproof, and dustproof. Bring on that outdoor-adventure vacation!
Lowest Refurbished Price: USD 254.00
Portable & Easy Use
Very satisfied with the usability of this camcorder. Reliable and rugged with a great picture.
Fun camera. More of a toy, though.
I took this white water rafting, and it held up like a champ. It doesn't shoot very crisp video, and considering the bright sun, conditions were pretty ideal, but the results were far from. The thing is though, that doesn't really matter. If you want to shoot decent video, buy a decent video camera. This thing, on the other hand, is waterproof! And extremely so! I don't know if you've ever been white water rafting, but it can get pretty brutal, and after getting completely submerged more than once, and bounced around a few times as well, the unit still looks and performs as good as new. I'm very, very impressed with its build quality. I give 4 stars because I'm not very impressed with its image quality.
If you need something you can abuse, this is your camera; it'll take it. If you need something which will produce impressive video, buy something else. And be careful with it.
