On January 9, 2012, Panasonic announced its upcoming HX-WA2 waterproof camcorder, which is designed to withstand active use and water submersion up to 9 feet, 8 inches. The durable camcorder, available in blue and orange, shoots HD video and takes 14 MP photo stills. With the HD Writer VE2.0 software, users can edit their videos and stills by adding music, transitions, and retouches. One creative effect is the Short Movie Story feature, which converts a series of stills into a short movie with background music. To access the 15x zoom, users must press the Double Range Zoom button; the camcorder zooms only 12x when the Electrical Image Stabilizer is activated. Price and availability will be announced later this year. <\/p>\n
