Tough enough for the kids to use By Jenn the Professional Tourist from Canyon Lake, Ca on 07/30/2008 Pros: Easy To Use, Functional, Good Depth Range, Water-tight Seals Best Uses: Desert riding, Diving, Snorkeling, Swimming Pool Describe Yourself: Hobbyist/Enthusiast Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The camera is a little heavy but is fantastic. Not only are we water enthusiasts but also dirt enthusiasts. The camera's maiden voyage was a quad ride in the desert to see how land pictures turned out. WOW! It was awsome. My husband is rough on everything and it passed the test. We got some great pics of his birthday ride with his buddies. The water tight seals make it dust proof also, a definite plus.
By The Wet One from Portland, Oregon on 07/21/2008 Pros: Easy To Use, Functional, Good Depth Range Cons: Blurry Photos, Not Versatile Best Uses: Lake, Snorkeling Describe Yourself: Hobbyist/Enthusiast Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: First I purchased the camera for wet conditions not underwater. I do a lot of kayaking, canoeing, swimming, beach and hiking activities. Here in Oregon these all involve wet environments. I didn't want to chance my good SLR in say my kayak.
This camera is basically a waterproof fixed focus snapshot camera with all the limitations that entails. The depth of field after 2-3 feet is good BUT. The shutter lag is very noticeable but not as bad as many other digitial non-SLRs.The shutter speed leaves something to be desired. Definately not for fast action shots. The shutter is stiff which can cause the camera to jiggle if not held tightly. The view screen is very difficult to see in any degree of brightness. If you are used to a good digital SLR you will be hampered by the limited range of options and only an ASA of 200.
That said the pictures it does produce are pretty good but will never be prize winners. If you shot for National Geographic this is not your camera. If you want a smallish camera for decent family pictures at the beach, snorking, diving or hiking this is a good choice.
