Customer Reviews – the following is a brief recap of current reviews from Amazon.com
” Took this camera on a river adventure, and really tested out the waterproofing. It spent about 5 hours underwater and still took some great shots!”
“The first encounter I had with this camera was in Jamaica 2010, in a swimming pool around several young adults. The camera was kicked around and underwater many times throughout the trip. The pictures taken were so focused both in and out of the water and throughout the abuse…”
“The camera is awesome. I had an older one that lasted 3-4 yrs but my girlfriend lost it at a bar. I'd highly recommend this to anyone. Its great for hiking, boating and skiing.”
