The Panasonic WA10 takes two under-appreciated features and slaps them into one video camera: A pistol grip, and a ruggedized body. It all shoots 16-megapixel stills, so it could be called a hybrid. This is new territory for Panasonic; we believe that this line of camcorders is the successor to Sanyo's CG series, as Panasonic purchased Sanyo in late 2009 and Sanyo has not announced any new cameras this year.
