In the ocean or pool... ...in
the rain ...or, in the snow
Style Design Made Simple
The Dual Camera Xacti WH1 packs cutting edge technology into a small,
stylish, easy to use camera. Designed to fit perfectly in the palm of
your hand, the Dual Camera WH1 features an easy to navigate menu which
make it a great choice for the beginner and the more advanced user. It
is the perfect blend of style, performance, and ease of use.
Large, 2.5-inch Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
The display flips out from the camera and rotates up to 285 degrees on
an axis that allows you to take great video or still images from
otherwise-difficult-to-view positions, proving to be especially useful
when shooting in confined spaces.
2 Megapixel* Still Image Quality
A 1.1 -megapixel (effective) CMOS image sensor is the heart of the
still image capabilities. This sensor allows images to be interpolated
to reach 2 megapixel quality.
30x optical zoom
The WH1 delivers HD video and 30x optical zoom. The lens provides a
fantastic zooming range from F=43-1290 mm (35mm equivalent).

12 Subject Face Chaser Technology
Recognizes up to 12 faces for videos and still pictures and optimizes
focus and aperture settings to ensure all subjects are in focus.

Three-Dimensional Noise Reduction (3D-DNR)
Sanyo's 3D-DNR technology offers a significant improvement in video
clarity by reducing random signal noise. This improvement in bit rate
allocation will result in a highly accurate video image.

Sophisticated image stabilizer
Using a proprietary Sanyo algorithm, the WH1 automatically compensates
for distracting up-and-down or side-to-side camera movement, keeping
your subject steady and easy to follow. It accurately distinguishes
between unintentional camera shake and deliberate camera movement. This
handy feature operates in both wide-angle and telephoto modes.

Sequential photo mode shoots up to 13 frames per second
Take pictures like the pros with sequential shooting up to 13 frames
per second. The perfect solution for action photography.

Highly advanced MPEG4 AVC/H.264 video compression
This feature optimizes the file size and makes sharing movies on social
networking sites, or e-mailing them to friends and family, even
easier. In fact, the file size can be up to 25 percent smaller than
that of typical MPEG-4 cameras.
To
accomplish the complexity of encoding AVC/H.264 in real-time on the
WH1, a dedicated H.264 video compression IC was incorporated into the
camera that was designed specifically for portable consumer devices.
This achieves high video quality while simultaneously reducing the
system power consumption.
Easily transfer video and still images to your video capable iPod
Import video and still image files directly into iTunes software and
then port them to your video-capable iPod. Share your latest
masterpiece with friends and family.

Record over 5 hours of full motion video
Using a 16GB SDHC memory card users can capture over 5 hours and 43
minutes worth of video in standard definition or approximately 3 hours
and 51 minutes in HD video mode.
Capture still images while you’re shooting video
The WH1 enables simultaneous shooting of video clips and still images
with a simple press of the shutter button during the shooting of a
movie clip. You will never need to miss another precious photo
opportunity. (Depending on the mode used to take still images,
simultaneous video clip shooting may be interrupted. While shooting
video clips, using the digital image stabilizer may change the angle of
view for still images.)
Super-fast start-up
Reduce your chance of missing the perfect shot. The Dual Camera Xacti
WH1 is designed for super fast start-up and shooting. With its tapeless
design, the WH1 eliminates the need to queue up a video tape, allowing
it to begin shooting in as little as 1.7 seconds! When the WH1 is
powered on, closing the LCD display puts it in standby mode. Simply
open the display and the WH1 automatically powers up and can begin
immediately recording in as little as 1.7 seconds.
Includes a high-capacity Sanyo brand lithium-ion battery
The DB-L50 is a high capacity battery designed to work with the Sanyo
Xacti WH1 camera and delivers approximately 200 minutes of video record
time. That’s over three hours and twenty minutes! High-energy density
design minimizes the battery size and weight, making it perfect for use
in the Sanyo Dual Camera Xacti WH1. The DB-L50 is designed to resist
memory accumulation so it provides a full charge every time.
Easy playback of recorded video directly on a TV
The WH1 camera features a HDMI output which makes connecting it to a
Digital TV or DVD Recorder a breeze. The WH1 can also easily be
connected to a computer to back-up copies of recorded content. Still
images and video clips are played back continuously and in
chronological order. When connected to a PC, simple drag-and-drop
operation makes it easy to save recorded video clips and still images
onto a computer's hard disk for emailing, editing or archiving.
