Summary: Waterproof Panasonic SDR-SW20
Comment: I've used the camcorder for a couple of weeks now, and I like it. Some reviews I'd read spoke of poor video quality, and it's not great, but it's good. I haven't had it in the water yet, but it did fall out of my truck to the pavement once, and it survived that. The fact that they recommend sending the unit in every 18 months to repack the waterproofing bothers me since I found that out AFTER purchase. So far, I'm happy with the camcorder.

Summary: Panasonic SDR camcorder
Comment: This is one of the better camcorder purchases I have made. It's small enough and light enough to fit in a shirt pocket. Video is great and the still camera function works well. The only drawback I see is the the battery runs out fast even in the off mode.
All in all! It's a great cam/camcorder.

Summary: good so far, but make sure you know all the details...
Comment: The Panasonic SDR-SW20 Waterproof camcorder fits in you palm and is real easy to use and very versatile...especially with its ability to not have water affect it...after losing several sony camcorders to rain. However, make sure you know that the computer you are using is 8 years or older, it may not have an appropriate video card to view the video. I was able to put a new video card in my computer, for $50. Just one point to be aware of, check to see if your computer has a good enough video card to view the video. If so, like mine does now, it works great. Also, the transcend flash card with the 16G SD card has enough size to last awhile...enjoy!

Summary: Good foolproof camcorder - poor battery
Comment: I have used the SDR-SW20 for over 2 months now and overall I am happy with the product. Easy to navigate menu, nice picture quality (not HD!), lightweight. My only but important point of critique is the poor battery performance. In SD mode the battery only allows for 30min of recording time. NOT enough for weekend trips. I guess I have to buy a spare battery to avoid carrying the charger and cable.

Summary: So So
Comment: Nice concept with mediocre execution.
Picture quality is worse than mini tape.
Its is very small and portable. Kind of awkward in your hand.

Panasonic's SDR-SW20 compact SD camcorder is built tough so you can shoot in places never before possible. Take it underwater as deep as 5 feet for great video in the pool or ocean. Waterproofing also means you can shoot in the rain or snow with no worries. The SW20 is also shockproof, resisting damage even if dropped from a height of up to 4 feet with improved fortification inside and out. A dustproof design keeps the camcorder safe even if handled with dirty hands or used in a place with swirling dust. Take it to the beach or sports field without worrying about sand. And since it's waterproof, simply wash it with water when it gets dirty.Small enough to slip in a pocket or bag. Cool enough to take everywhere you go. This is one stylish camcorder you'll never want to be without.The SW20 SD camcorder starts up to record quickly. In Quick Start mode, recording begins in just 0.6 seconds from the time the LCD is opened. This lets you catch those sudden shooting opportunities.The USB port allows you to connect directly to a DVD burner. And copying a recording from an SD card to a DVD disc is as easy as selecting from the menu. To view your video, simply take the SD card from the camcorder and slip it into any TV or DVD player with an SD card slot; there are no cables to worry about.First, transfer the motion-image data from the SD card to your PC using your PC's USB port. Then with the included MotionSD Studio 1.3E software, you can easily put scenes in a different order, delete the ones you don't want, and add a wide variety of video effects. Save your results by burning your video production onto DVD.
