Fully Loaded Branded Camcorder under $350

When searching for a new small digital camcorder, you want the latest and best camcorder available for the best price. If it's a waterproof camcorder down to 10 feet, that's a real bonus.

Lets define "Fully Loaded" first.

Full 1080 HD. This is the first requirement for best video pictures.

Great Stills up to 14 mega pixels.

Optical Zoom. 5x photo, 12 x video.

Touch screen image stabilizer.

Face detection.

Mpeg-4 compression.

SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card compatible.

Waterproofed to 10 feet.

There is such a waterproof camcorder, new to the market in August 2010, which is all of these things and more, and it's the Sanyo CA102 Waterproof small digital camcorder. Full HD 1080 Video and 14MP Digital Photos with 12X Dual Range Zoom which easily fits into your purse or the pockets of your pants.

The only compromise is in the image stabilizer which is digital, but then it's a proprietary design and claimed to be just as efficient as optical image stability.

This small digital camcorder records to the most efficient file format Mpeg4, giving you 4 hours of recording time with a 32GB card at full 1920 x 1080.

Battery capacity is reasonable at about 70 minutes of recording time, but with a card which will record for 4 hours at the highest resolution and 16 hours at standard resolution, a spare battery or two may be a wise investment.

Having a small digital camcorder such as the Sanyo CA102 which is also a waterproof camcorder, lets you record in the rain, while snorkeling, surfing, water skiing, snow skiing and snowboarding. You name it, record in any situation, and it's small dimensions of just 3.62 inches wide x 1.6 inches deep and under 5 inches tall. Weight including battery is under 9 ounces.

The compact design of the Sanyo CA102 small digital camcorder makes this waterproof camcorder extremely portable and easy to use. Videos, still photos, camera menus and settings can be easily accessed with the user's thumb.

The Sanyo CA102 small digital camcorder is not the cheapest waterproof camcorder available, but the 14mega pixel stills alone warrants the reasonable price. Add the class leading video performance to this, and it sets the bar high above even established camcorders costing twice the price.
