The Panasonic HX-A1 is a super-light and compact action cam. Out-of-the-box night-vision makes it the only action cam for shooting in total darkness. An included adapter for use with GoPro mounts gives buyers accessory options.
he A1 is a cylindrical action cam weighing in at just 45 grams, or 1.59 ounces. Its completely cylindrical body is a compact 8.4 by 2.6 by 2.6 centimetres (3.3 by 1.02 by 1.02 inches). A 3.54-megapixel 1/3-inch MOS sensor offers full-HD video and 2.66-megapixel still shooting.
The A1 is IP68 compliant, which means it's rated to be waterproof down to a depth of 1.5 metres (5 feet) and completely dustproof. It's also rated to survive drops of up to 1.5 metres and is freeze-proof to -10 degrees Celsius or 14 degrees Fahrenheit.
The camera records 29.97 frames per second (fps) by default in 1080p, 720p and 848x640p resolutions. Filming is in a standard 16:9 aspect ratio and the A1 can be set to record footage with a 150- or 120-degree angle of view. This isn't as wide as other action cams are capable of, with both GoPro and Sony both shooting at 170 degrees at their widest.
Of course, the biggest point of difference the A1 offers is its built-in 0 lux night-vision capability. You'll need to swap out the standard lens for the included "IR" lens, and purchase an infrared torch separately. Once the IR lens is installed, the camera delivers true night-vision footage so long as you've got your infrared light handy. For anyone after a camera with night-vision capability right out of the box then the A1 is the only option.
