With a 4GB SD memory card, up to 165 minutes of video can be recorded at the highest quality setting. The E1 comes in 3 different colors to complement your swimsuit or other water-related recreational equipment. But we’d still like to know: will it float? Blackmagic has added a little “backwards compatibility” with its Intensity HDMI card by adding analog capabilities. This will give video editors much more flexibility, allowing them to capture and play back video from devices using component or S-Video connectors and two channels of 24-bit audio using RCA connectors.
Summer months are full of adventures and the Sanyo Xacti E1 looks to be well suited for all water-related activities. The waterproof E1
camcorder ($499 MSRP) is submersible to a depth of five feet for up to 60 minutes. It’s companioned with a 1/2.5″ CCD which records advanced MPEG-4 video at 640 by 480 pixels and at a rate of 30 frames per second. Additionally, 6-megapixel still images can be taken simultaneously with recording onto SD-and SDHC-compatible memory cards.
