Editors' Comments
An inexpensive and rugged entry into the world of camcorders, Panasonic's SDR-SW20 is a shockproof, waterproof standard resolution camera that is also lightweight and pretty stylish. Recording in either 4:3 or 16:9 format, the SDR-SW20's recording capacity is limited only by the size of the SD/SDHC cards used with it. Its most flashy trait is its ability to be used up to 5 feet underwater, in the rain, and in the snow. It is also shockproof, meaning it can be dropped from up to 4 feet without sustaining significant damage. It also starts up quickly, typically in under 0.6 seconds. This is a great choice for someone who plans to use their camera hard and who doesn't care about HD capability.

Kodak Easyshare M1033 Digital Camera Review
Not So Fast, or So Good Either
Review by Brenda Paro
The M1033 can't break Kodak out of the funk they're trapped in. It's yet another disappointing offering from the once venerable manufacturer.
