Review on 📷 Rugged and Reliable: Panasonic SDR-SW21 Shock & Waterproof Camcorder (Green) by Paul Evangelista

I am very pleased to have purchased this product as I have a Lumix series camera that I have been using for almost 3 years and am very happy with it. I bought it for its handy size, water and dust resistance, and the fact that it looks sturdy. Before using this item I read all the reviews and then I wanted to see for myself what it is about. Here's: Video Capability: At the highest settings, the video was awful, it was dark and almost pixelated. This was done indoors with plenty of outside light coming in as it was a sunny day. The picture looked like a normal rainy day; cloudy, dark and no colors appear at all. I won't even mention the low light performance as there is almost none. It looks like a regular webcam video. Camera function: blurry, grainy and dark. As someone else mentioned, it was like using a cell phone camera. So it's true. At that point I packed everything and couldn't wait for the next day to come back. As for its water resistance. I didn't review it as its performance was terrible under normal conditions. Even if it lived up to its waterproofing abilities, you'd still have to live with the rest of its shortcomings, which is everything else. As mentioned in another review, Panasonic fell asleep on this product. I can only give it three stars and no less because I couldn't test its water performance and battery life. I know people keep these two areas in mind when deciding to buy this product. I myself stopped at low quality videos and pictures.
