Unlike the recently released Xacti DMX-CA camcorder, the HD1010 is not waterproof. However it certainly is packed with powerful features that you wouldn’t expect a tiny gadget such as this one to have.

Boasting of a 4-megapixel camera with 10x optical zoom, the Xacti HD1010 combines both the functionality of a digital camera and a digital camcorder offering up an advanced, next-generation video performance and high quality stills in one small, lightweight camera. The Xacti HD1010 can record both 1080i HD-video and take 4-megapixel digital still images.

Other features of this new camcorder include a 2.7-inch LCD display, 10x optical zoom, video and still image stabilization, sequential shooting, face detection on still images of up to 12 faces, face chases “video” of up to 12 faces. This camcorder also features a high quality audio recording, wind roar and red eye reduction, webcam functionality, support for SDHC cards and 40MB of internal memory.
