Have the camera bought in August 2013, several times so immersed since to 35m. The positive thing is that was dense and the video have very good quality (but unfortunately almost monochrome, see below). The photos were opposed mostly blurred, especially the Macro shooting is I managed not once, at a distance of several meters, the images were again ok. In general I would say that this camera is only suitable for video, photos should be forgotten. Now to absolute minus points, a function for manual white balance are there, but this is not working. I have made several attempts to start (in the dry), but I could not distinguish between different WB settings notice. It is the only way to get without Rotfilter reasonably colored pictures underwater. In general, the colors of the camera very, very pale, even on the beach, so that submerged the whole from 1m depth only is bluish monochrome. All this means laborious reworking on PC. The next negative point is the cumbersome operation, the keys go so heavy that I (as a man) already had problems to these pressures, my wife could not even turn on the camera, not even to speak of the rest. Something set in the menus or later to view the photographs just means pain in the fingers. For the whole is more, the camera develops its own life and start recording sporadically autonomously, daducrh some nice moments escaped me because I turned off the camera for the "right" time after the unnoticed previously started the recording has (Recording started with the same button / closed). This behavior is not due to the high pressure and / or penetration of the water, because it is me already happened several times in the dry. Once the camera was turned on on the table and suddenly went the video recording, as if by magic, to. I was not one anywhere near.
Here once again in summary: + Ordinary video recordings in good light + Very small and light + Holds tight even at 35m depth + Has a display so you can see what is being recorded
- Very poor color reproduction - Poor quality in photos, especially macro shots - White balance will not work - High noise in low light conditions (eg wreck dives with lamp) - Miserable service, keys go too heavy - The camera starts recording automatically
Conclusion: I am very disappointed by the camera, clearly this is not very expensive, though for the money I would expect at least that minimum expectations are met on a dive camera.
