Underwater2009-05-30
I bought this camera to take to the beach and on canoe trips. for this it is great. No worries about it ever being ruined by the water, and the fact that it will take video with sound, even with the case on it was a plus. However I would not reccomend this as your everyday camera because it is slow and alot of the pictures(not all) will come out blurry. So I just usually snap two shots of everything. If you want a cheap, take to the beach camera, than I can reccomend this for you.
Product mix up but was an upgrade2009-04-20
Did not get the exact camera ordered but the one received was an upgrade. So we were very ok with this. Quick shipping also! A++
great price, so-so quality2009-02-06
I got this because it was the cheapest underwater camera I could find. It worked great when I went snorkeling in Mexico, but then the clasp on the case broke and I haven't been able to fix it. It's worth taking a chance on this I think, just be very careful with the case. The video quality is actually very good for the price.
Nice little camera for a nice price2008-10-28
While the quality of the camera is not state of the art, it is pretty decent for the price. My 12 year old daughter is thrilled with it.
Poor image quaility - trade-off for water protection for rafting2008-06-15
Even at the top level of fidelity, called FINE, the pictures have a lot of blurry areas because of image compression. End result is that the pictures with this 5M camera look worse that a similar picture with my 2M Canon. If they really have the 5M pixels on the sensor, they should improve the software to take use of this.

The only saving grace on the camera is the waterproof case. It is nice to take it rafting without having to worry about getting it wet. As soon as you hit dry land, however, dump this thing for a real camera!
