    Waterproof camera video comparison

    I have had a Panasonic Lumix FT1 for a while and recently bought a Pentax Optio WG1. I saw a difference in the video quality so I did this simple test. Both cameras on 720p and held side by side.

    I know which one I think is better you have a gander and decide.

    Does the Pentax have a polarised lens/filter?

    ...try a polarized lens on the bottom camera and you should see an improvement...me thinks

    If both cameras are on default settings i suspect the "White Balance" on the bottom camera leaves a lot to be desired. This can be manually adjusted to improve results and on some cameras the default setting can be adjusted to user requirements so that it defaults to the user's setting.
