  • Comfortable button placement, Well sealed against elements, Good underwater performance
  • Below average image quality, Controls are initially confusing
  • FeaturesOf course, the most outstanding feature about the WH1 is that its waterproof upto 10 feet or 3 meters of water, which is enough for most people going for it. Of course, we wouldnt just blindly believe the claim, so we did take it into a swimm...

  • Abstract:  Thanks to its clever waterproof and dustproof concept, you can use Sanyo’s Xacti VPC-WH1 at up to 3 metres underwater (it is certificated IEC 60529, IPX8), and you won’t have problems on sunny beaches. This camera is terrific news for families who spen...

  • Works great in extreme conditions, HD ready shots are sharp
  • Digital zoom at 1500x is a gimmick, 2MP stills are poor
  • A neat waterproof gadget, but a tad too niche to recommend over regular camcorders...

  • The WH1 makes good on its waterproof promise: surviving a complete dunking and a trip out in a heavy downpour. After use in water it needs washing with fresh water, and to dry completely. The 30x optical zoom is effective without compromising picture qual...
  • Just who needs a 1500x digital zoom is a mystery to us, so there seems no practical purpose for this feature. Also, while the zoom itself is great, controlling it can be difficult, as the lever used is far from smooth. The 2MP stills resolution is disappo...
  • The Sanyo WH1 delivers good quality video in a rugged and affordable (sub-£300) package but it could be even more attractive with a better photo resolution.Sanyo Xacti WH1 is tagged with Sanyo Xacti, camcorder and waterproof. Select a tag (Sanyo Xact...

  • While waterproof housings are available for other small camcorders, they typically cost at least as much as the Sanyo Xacti VPC-WH1 does. The Sanyo Xacti VPC-WH1 is a good choice for use in and around water, including under rain and snow, and for situ...

  • Abstract:  A rugged, durable video and stills camera that would cope with active shooting very well. It didnt disappoint when tested underwater and operated perfectly afterwards without any leaks. With this in mind, it would be an excellent choice for documenti...

  • Although I was somewhat disappointed with the still shot quality I think that Sanyo have made a durable and reliable video camera that you would feel confident taking up the ski slopes, going snorkelling, or even just being able to take great holiday f...

  • On paper, Sanyo looked like it had stolen a march on Panasonic with the Xacti VPC-WH1, as the first consumer-oriented waterproof HD camcorder. But whilst its moisture-repelling capabilities are commendable, video performance in poorly lit underwater condi...

  • Abstract:  Verdict: A waterproof camcorder thats great for fooling about with on holiday, but most beach fans will be better off with a video-capable waterproof camera. While summers here, youre hopefully going to be off to sunny climes to lounge around the...
