Well built, lightweight and takes excellent video and still pictures.
by psbrecruitment on February 25, 2007
Pros: Weather proof, lightweight, well built, good battery life, excellent camcorder and still pictures.
Cons: Does not come with a carry case and the anti-shake mechanism could be a touch better.

Summary: I do accept that there are camcorders and digital cameras of higher spec out there (I've owned them!) - however, I'm in love with this device! I was going to use it as a compliment to my my camcorder and my digital cameras - however, it has replaced them all! It's well built, it has a good battery life, it handles well and the pictures are great. If I were to be an absolute fuss-pot I would have to say that I am still searching for the best case for the camera (it doesn't come with one) and the anti-shake mechanism could be slightly better.

Specifications
- Manufacturer: Sanyo
- Part number: VPC-CA6
- Description: The outer casing of the compact and ergonomic Xacti CA6 has been specially designed to protect the camera from splashes and wet hands. Now you can enjoy recording more of the action at the poolside or on the ski slopes, without having to worry about moisture from water or snow. The Xacti CA6 employs a richly detailed 6.37-megapixel CCD and SANYO's proprietary image-adaptive data processing technology. This ensures low noise in dark areas, as well as more beautiful realization of skin colors. A high-powered 5x optical zoom lens lets you get up close and personal with your subject - even more so if you pair it with the 12x digital zoom. The Xacti CA6 sports a vertically oriented design that's easy on your wrists - essential, given the ultra-long 80 minutes of continuous recording it can deliver. Using the highly compressed MPEG-4 format enables the Xacti CA6 to achieve 30 fps, VGA-size (640 x 480) recording. With an optional 4 GB memory card, you can store up to 4 hours of superb and memorable video clips. What's more, still and video images can be captured simultaneously. Using the supplied cables, captured stills and video clips can be played back on your TV or PC. On your PC, you can edit them at your leisure, send them as e-mail attachments or post them on a website. Connect the camera directly to a PictBridge-compatible printer, and selected snapshots can be printed out from the printer with no need for a PC. Meanwhile, compatibility with Exif Print and PIM III helps to preserve the effects of the camera's original settings.
