So far I have used this camera to shoot pictures at monster truck rallies, a welcome home ceremony when a dear friend came back from Afghanistan ( got a great video of his family running to hug him), Washington, DC when we visited the museums, and the pool. I am very happy with my camera. This is the same run of the mill point and shoot, pretty much the same as most and the same quality, there are a lot of features and the video recording is decent. This camera is perfect for someone who wants a point and shoot camera that they don’t have to worry about breaking.
It is waterproof up to 16 feet and shockproof as well. An awesome buy! Luckily I purchased black tie protection on it from Best Buy so I don’t anticipate any problems with repair or return. But now I am stuck on vacation without an underwater camera.
You decide if you want to pay more for fancy stuff. Good pick if you want an affordable, waterproof, backup camera. Within a day of simple testing, the colored panel in the front already developed a scratch. The functions are not intuitive at all, for example, trying a simple thing like turning the camera on and then trying to zoom in you get “not available in the current mode”. The internal memory holds loads of images and they are a great quality. The camera has been dropped from a top bunk onto a tile floor and thrown across a playground into sand and performed perfectly afterwards! I used my friends Olympus Stylus Tough 8000 last year on a snorkeling trip in the Dominican Republic. I completely submerged the camera for hours and it worked great.
The first was a 7mp that unfortunately went missing. I purchased these cameras to carry with me pretty much full time when I’m out and about so I’ll not miss a “photo of opportunity.” It uses a standard SD card. The old version used a smaller version which meant I couldn’t swap them out with other cameras (yes, we own several different digital cameras.) The camera is pretty great.
You can’t tell the difference in speed of the photos being taken. Slow, very slow. Maybe because of that I leave it on a lot and that’s why the battery runs out! This camera is amazing. It does not charge in my computer and must be charged in a wall. But a spare wall charger while you are at it if you want as well. Just my 2 cents! We ordered this through Amazon but they fulfilled it for Beach Camera. I like it very much and got this one as a gift for my fiance. We use them for video half the time.
I’m sure if you take proper care of the camera it will last and not leak. small leather recliner chair.
