ion-man Posted August 28, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Hi gang, my Sanyo Xacti VPC_CA9 seems to have crapped out on me after about a year and a half. Anyone have any recommendations for a replacement Waterproof camcorder? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awboater Posted August 28, 2012 #2 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I don't recall seeing too many waterproof camcorders. I think the only thing that might available these days is the GoPro Hero 2. Perhaps a compact camera with video mode might be an alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipmaster Posted August 28, 2012 #3 Share Posted August 28, 2012 IMHO todays P&S waterproof almost all do 720 if not 1080 so probably more than good enough for vacation vidoes and snapshots.

Rare scubacruiserx2 Posted August 28, 2012 #4 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I would recomend the Sealife DC 1400. I own the older DC 1200 that is on sale for $378 @ Leisurepro. They are compact when removed from their waterproof case (200'). They are very durable (I still use my 6 year old DC 600 ) and a great company to deal with. Here is a quick dolphin video with grandson in Cozumel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ion-man Posted August 31, 2012 Author #6 Share Posted August 31, 2012 scubacruiserx2, I think I am leaning towards the Go Pro HD Hero 2 Surf Edition with Dive Housing, looks like it will fill my needs. Thanks so much for the suggestion, and video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
