Panasonic SDR-SW20

What’s in the Box?
The Panasonic SDR-SW20 ships with the following items:

- VW-VBJ10 Battery Pack
- AC Adapter
- AC Cable
- AV Cable
- 2-way Hand Strap
- USB Cable
- CD-ROM

The SDR-SW20’s battery is small, so you’ll need to bulk up in order to last throughout a day at the beach. An SD/SDHC card does not come standard, so invest in a high capacity one—8GB and up—to provide enough recording space.

Other Features (3.0)
Underwater Mode – The SDR-SW20’s Underwater Mode is not what you might think. You do not need to engage Underwater mode before taking a dive—the auto mode will be fine. It’s the audio and White Balance that is affected by Underwater mode. When Underwater Mode is engaged, an audio filter is activated to reduce motor hum. Also, the White balance shifts to warm the image.

Fades – The classic fade in/fade out is possible on the SDR-SW20. Choose between black and white.

Quick Start –In a mere 0.6 seconds, the SDR-SW20 will spring into action at the flip of the LCD screen when Quick Start is engaged. When the camcorder is in standby mode, it consumes half the power than usual recording.
