Customer Review: cracking camera
I have owned this camera for nearly a year now, and I have taken it to Cornwall, Ireland and Wales so far and used it underwater, it hasn’t let me down at all, it is fully water proof, and takes fantastic quality pictures underwater. I am just about to give it the biggest test yet, as we are going to go to Cuba for two weeks, where it will be taken snorkelling every day, not to mention the use on the beach. But I have no worries about doing any of this, I have 100% confidence in it.
I also had trouble deciding between this camera and the olympus. The olympus costs a little bit more and i very nearly went for it because I thought it looked better. Looking back I am positive that i made the right choice.

Customer Review: Could do better
I wanted a waterproof camera for a sailing trip so the positive reviews of this camera’s performance under natural light conditions swayed me over the Olympus Mju. I was very happy with the results from my outdoor “action” shots but very disappointed with the shots using flash. Taking pics of people when flash was needed was a nightmare due to the ridiculously long time it took for the camera to focus on static subjects. In short, great for outdoor/daylight photography but hopeless for flash portraiture.
