Sanyo Xacti E1 review: Sanyo Xacti E1

 

If underwater YouTubing were a market segment, the Sanyo Xacti VPC-E1 would be

Frequently captures surprisingly high-quality still photos; waterproof.

Awkward, frustrating design; slow focus.

If underwater YouTubing were a market segment, the Sanyo Xacti VPC-E1 would be the camera to get. But the awkward design and slow performance make it hard to recommend for landlubbers.

Great camera, but I'd love even longer battery life

 

I'm pleased with the video quality, it looks great at the highest quality setting. I use the camera (mounted on a kayak front deck) to record surf sessions, and there are 2 features that I'd really like to see added for this mode of operation. 1) ...

Well Worth The Investment!

 

I own a Porsche Boxster and absolutely love it. But as the father of three small children, I could not imagine it being our only car, and, as video cameras go, I feel the exact same way about the Sanyo E1. Is it the best video camera you'll ever own? ...

Great underwater footage, small and convenient, surprisingly nice stills

Bad in low light, small zoom, painfully slow shutter lag, slightly unintuitive buttons and menus
