Panasonic's HX-WA20 is a Full HD SDXC camcorder with a 1/2.33 single MOS sensor, 28mm wide angle (35mm equivalent) lens and a 3in display. Unlike the other Panasonic camcorders we've seen this year, the HX-WA20 has a pistol grip design and is intended for ‘active' use, which means you can use it in dusty and wet environments; The HX-WA20 is waterproof up to three metres, so you can capture all the amazing underwater scenery the next time you go snorkelling.


The HX-WA20 renders images in breathtaking, Full-HD (1920 x 1080) beauty, so you can save your memories in stunning image quality and watch them on a large-screen TV.

It's great for us to take high quality images and record vivid full HD videos. If you have got the WA20 and often use it to record 1080P video, you may have the need to edit WA20 MP4 in Final Cut Pro on Mac, but it seems not so easy to edit the footages.

The WA20 records MPEG-4 AVC / H.264 videos, this format is easy to play, but Mac users complained that they cannot edit WA20 recorded MP4 videos in FCP smoothly, the main reason is the H.264 codec and MPEG-4 codec, this codec is not well for editing, and FCP best supported video format is Apple ProRes 422 codec MOV format, so FCP X doesn't support Panasonic HX-WA20 MP4 footages well, you may encountered many problems, like import it slowly, and couldn't edit videos smoothly.
