Sanyo Water-Resistant Xacti CA6 Digital Media Camera

CHATSWORTH, CA, July 13, 2006 – The new, 6-megapixel SANYO Xacti CA6 is a pocket-sized digital still and MPEG-4 video camera specially designed to capture outdoor fun under the sun and around water.

The CA6 is “protected from splash in all directions,” conforming to the IEC international IPX4 standard. Splash-proof water resistance makes it practical to point and shoot even around the pool or at the beach. It's also rugged enough to safely take photos or shoot video with wet hands while fishing, hiking, boating, skiing or enjoying many other outdoor leisure activities. While remarkably water resistant, the CA6 should never be immersed in water.

Ergonomically designed for convenient, one-handed operation, the CA6 digital media camera records both 640 x 480 resolution MPEG-4 video and 6-megapixel digital still images to a standard SD or SDHC flash memory card. It will be available in the U.S. in August 2006 at US.99 MSRP.
