The Canon Vixia HF20 and Vixia HF200 aren't even available yet, but they'll be ready for a summer vacation at the beach when they ship--that is, if you accessorize them with the new WP-V1 underwater housing. The plastic casing allows you to shoot your HD video as deep as 130 feet. At $599, the case is a bit pricey, though. It's slated to ship in May.

Senior Editor Lori Grunin has been covering digital imaging for two decades, but her memory's kind of sketchy on the details. You can hear about it every week on Indecent Exposure, the podcast she co-hosts with Matt Fitzgerald.
