I had the camera been used under the following conditions: beach, snorkeling, swimming pool, very high outdoor temperature> 45 degrees and humidity, water park () Strong tremors, night and normal conditions.
The camera responds very quickly when you press the shutter button.
Camera can be cleaned very well.
The Auto mode makes almost always perfect images in any situation (poor) at night pictures.
First class workmanship.
Image quality for this weight class – just TOP!
It can also be great short videos rotate, for example, Dipping into the water, camera adapts quickly to new lighting situations!
Very bright, large display (readable when the sun is directly draufknallt – necessary because there is no viewfinder!)
Loop can be positioned in different ones.
- No lens cover (I recommend the Canon Neoprene case, see review), but it has also the advantage that the lens can be cleaned easily
- For large (for the shirt pocket compact, the Olympus μ TOUGH 8000)
- Problems with night shots, auto mode peels in part on macro, of course there is no picture comes out more. The various Nachtmodi must be chosen accordingly. Videos have streaks of light, if for example Street lights shine brightly in comparison to the surrounding area. Therefore, the flash is also, more than TOP, even under water!
TIPS for the underwater camera in general from personal experience:
Who eingecremt with thick, the camera goes into the water runs the risk that solved cream settles on the skin at the camera, the lens becomes cloudy and the shooting is over! Happened mainly in the pool, or if you have dripping with the camera in hand, in the sea rather straightforward. The cleaning is dry with soft cloth, but no problem!
Replace the battery cover to cool the card only in dry, open spaces. Otherwise it may happen that the camera if it is strongly heated (through shade, etc.) and then into cold water is coming – from the inside fogs (Where walks in no moisture, is also not out!).
Such happened: On the dry camera all flaps open and put a pillow with silicate Tupperdose close box, leave in for a day or longer. Keep Tupperdose course, in a cool, dry place!
Conclusion: Affordable, very good underwater camera and ExtremEnvironment would definitely buy it again!
