just got my hands on the E1 newest waterproof xacti i actually really love it. great in low light the best sound of a xacti yet i have the first (?) C4 and one of the newest HD1A (ok it's jays but i steal it sometimes) the sound on the HD is terrible IMHO. it's really blown out and hot. really annoying for a 700$ camera. the E1 has much better sound though it's not in HD i still like it so far. i'll be posting some footage of underwater fun so y'all can see.
this is a video i shot above water with the E1 though: http://ryanishungry.com/2007/07/06/real-goods-we-took-a-workshop-at-the-solar-living-institute/ i think the quality is great and this isn't on the highest quality setting, it's on the second highest. cheers -ryanne On 7/8/07, beth_tilston <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > David, > > I have a Xacti HD2.
