Sanyo intro’s the waterproof Xacti DMX-CA8 camcorder
Sanyo has upgraded their Xacti CA-65 waterproof camcorder with the new Xacti DMX-CA8. The DMX-CA8 retains much of the same features as its predecessor except for the addition of an 8-megapixel CMOS sensor and a “Face Chaser” function.
The DMX-CA8 is JIS IPX5 and IPX8 certified, which means that it can withstand one hour of being submerged into water up to 1.5 meters (just under 5-foot) deep. The DMX-CA8 can record video at 60fps with MPEG-4 AVCH/H.264 compression. Like its predecessor, the DMX-CA8 also sports a 5x optical zoom lens. To make the camcorder special, Sanyo threw in a “Face Chaser” function which can track six faces when filming a video or twelve faces when the camcorder is used for still images.
Otherwise, the DMX-CA8 also offers a digital image stabilizer, wind noise reduction, talking navigation, support for SDHC cards up to 32GB and a 2.5-inch color LCD display. The DMX-CA8 will be released in the Japanese market sometime in May 2008.
