Great waterproof camera if you´re in a pool
by DuduRJ1982 on April 20, 2011
Pros: - Panoramic pictures are great.
- Anti-shaking works the way it suppouses to.
- Works well underwater.
Cons: - Poor batery life I agree.
- Don´t take it to the beach. The sand and salt can really break this camera. I think there´s a warning for that in the manual as well.
Summary: I bought this camera last year for my girlfriend that time and just got another one for me this year (2011). Really liked the product.

Summary: I bought this camera mainly to help me visualize how I swim. And it didn't dissapoint. I've taken it to the pool many times to take videos for my swim buddies and it worked as expected. No leaks, no issues. The image quality is great. Check out my 8 feet underwater test video at:
