At CES, Panasonic tipped the scales in both directions introducing the world’s largest Plasma HDTV TV (150 inches) and the world’s smallest and lightest SD card High Definition Camcorder, the HDC-SD9. Weighing in at under 1-pound, this tiny camcorder records in high definition on SD Cards that you can pop in and out for easy editing and playback directly on Panasonic and other HDTVs, including your computer.

 
The Panasonic DR-SW20 combines a rugged, compact body with waterproofing that allows use in water - including seawater - to a depth of five feet, shock-proofing that protects against drops from up to 4 feet, and a dust-proofing design that shuts out airborne dust particles that can lead to malfunction. With a design that protects it from water, dust, and impact, the SW20 is a versatile camcorder that can meet varying weather conditions and shooting environments.

Panasonic HDC-SD9 Available in March $800
Panasonic SDR-SW20 Available February $399
