• Great for the price
  I bought this camera for a snorkeling trip, and it did not disappoint. I did have to make minor adjustments to the brightness and contrast in the photos (for the most part I used autolevels in Photoshop). The pictures turned out great. I've read reviews stating issues with the batteries. I had no issues with batteries. I bought energizer lithium batteries and they lasted for quite a while.
  As an underwater camera, it is well worth the money. One word of caution tho: Be sure you are hitting the shutter... more info

• Not as Good as as Reviews
  Takes a nice photo but the length of time you have to hold down the shot button inside the housing is extraordinarily long. The write time to cards (have tried several different kinds) is also on the slow end for this type of camera. Size inside housing is manageable and makes this camera a better choice for casual photography than an SLR camera.

• OK for the price
  I had no trouble with the housing. The double gasket is very secure. The pictures when there is adequate light are pretty good. They are not spectacular, but for the price is it was fun to take snorkeling. The focus/shutter lag are pretty bad and I missed photos because of it and it was this frustration that led me to getting a dSLR in the first place, but it is always hard to go back to a p&s from a dSLR. The external slave flash makes a good addition to improve the lighting.

• Good underwater camera
  This camera is a fairly good camera for the price. It takes good pictures and is easy to use. One drawback is the length of time it takes to take the picture. If the subject moves quickly it will not be captured in the frame.
