Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Panasonic SDR-SW21-S Shock & Waterproof Camcorder (Silver)
Customer Review: Poor video with any kind of motion
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this camera last year and returned it several days later because the video quality was so poor. If you were moving at all while you were shooting, the video it produced was blurry to the point where it make your eyes water to watch it. The shape also made it awkward to hold. The Sanyo VPC-E1 and VPC-E2 take much better video, but the VPC-E1 I owned crapped out after 13 months and the VPC-E2 crapped out after 4 months. I have owned several waterproof Olympus Stylus cameras and they are a bit more durable, but the video quality isn't great - the colors are a bit dull, but they do a better job with motion than this Panasonic! The Panasonic video does have nice color, and the video quality is good if you stand very still or use a tripod...but come on, who can do that all the time? Canon, Fuji and Pentax also make decent waterproof cameras, so consider them as well, however, they are oriented toward still pics, but can take reasonable video. In my opinion, NONE of the companies make a truly durable, truly waterproof, digital video camera...yet.
