Panasonic HX-WA30

Quad Proof Rugged Design
The HX-WA30 has advanced further with a considerable increase in toughness. It is waterproof down to 10m / 33ft, shockproof up to 1.5m / 5ft, freezeproof down to -10°C / 14°F, and dustproof. This makes shooting possible in harsh environments.
   

Panasonic HX WA30

Ergonomic Design with Free-angle LCD
This unique grip form minimizes shooting fatigue
. Shooting is stable because you can easily hold the HX-WA30 with one hand. Single-handed shooting also makes it easy to capture sudden shooting opportunities. The HX-WA30 also features a 6.7 cm / 2.6-inch wide-screen LCD monitor with 7-level brightness adjustment. It also rotates through approximately 285° so you can easily position it at your preferred angle. This lets you keep your subject clearly in view, whether you’re shooting high, low, or at yourself.
   

Panasonic HX-WA30

High Image Quality
The sensitivity of the CMOS sensor has been improved by BSI (Backside Illumination) sensor technology, so you can record clear images even in dimly lit places - like indoors or at parties. The High-Quality Image Engine enables both excellent image quality and a compact body. Its image-processing algorithms and architecture are designed for high-speed processing, signal processing systems are optimized for noise reduction, and power consumption is reduced.
