I offered this product to my 11 year old daughter and I must say that we are all delighted 2. It comes with instructions in French, protection and cover USB cable to recharge the battery via the computer. You have to buy a micro SD card which is unfortunately not included. We tested the pool and, after having adjusted the camera, the photos are successful and net (both in the water than out of the water). We just found that under water it is better to turn the flash each time (image is much more clear and beautiful). My choice fell on this unit (I hesitated with the Easypix Splash works with batteries ... In light of the many comments batteries) because it works with a battery (we were able to use it during intensive way 3 hours in the pool before being flat). The only complaint I could make is that the trigger is pretty slow but for that price I am surprised and delighted with the quality.
