 Really Quality, Affordable Underwater Camera September 8, 2010
Cynthia Hong (Rockville, MD)
I've been waiting 4 years to get a quality underwater camera and I've finally got it! Before purchasing, I read the reviews on Amazon, both good and bad, researched underwater cameras on various websites and asked friends and family familiar with photography. I own a Nikon D60 and a Sony DSC so I am very particular about image quality and getting the most for my money. My sister had a canon that worked so well for a point-and-shoot so already this product interested me. I was very skeptical and scared based on the bad reviews I read on Amazon about this camera, but I think those people are wrong. I took this camera to Hawaii and dunked it in salt water and fresh water one after the other (we went snorkeling then went back to the hotel pool several times). I had no problems at all; it even got banged up a couple of times considered you're trying to snorkel and take pictures. Pictures came out very well. If you're not going to use an underwater digital camera than for time, I wouldn't recommend getting this product, but if you plan on using this long-term, this is a great camera to get (my husband & I say it was worth every penny). Camera has very big buttons and easy to use features. Night pictures (or dimly light pictures) aren't as great as my other cameras, but you can't get everything in one, right? Make sure to read/follow the instructions. Happy picturing!
First Waterproof Camera Does Well in Belize September 8, 2010
Jonathan R. Bar-on (San Diego, CA United States)
We purchased this camera mainly because we were going to Belize and wanted to take it with us snorkeling and cave exploring. The camera did great and we now have a number of great underwater shots that we would otherwise have missed. The camera is very durable - I didn't mind banging it up while cave exploring and it takes excellent pictures. In my opinion, the one drawback is that it is not as flat as our other Cannon digital point and shoot cameras and is due to the lense which is not retractable. Despite this, I think that the camera is worth getting if you need one that is `rough and tough' as well as waterproof.
Cold Water Ok September 7, 2010
Jerrol
I have used the camera for about six or seven trips in Kodiak Alaska water temp is in the low 40's and visability is not so great, but pictures still turned out good. Everything has been working great so farCanon PowerShot D10 12.1 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.5-inch LCD. I wish the buttons were a little bigger. hard but not imposable to hit with 5 mill gloves on.
I like it! September 5, 2010
Tee Box (Culver, IN USA)
I bought this camera for the primary use of taking it with me when I kayak. I had not planned on taking any underwater pics, or even totally submerging it into water. But, the first time I used it, I dropped it right in the lake. This would be a good time to suggest that, if you plan on using this camera in a body of water, buy a floating strap to put on it. Without it, it sinks like a stone. Luckily, we found the camera after it was in the lake for a good ten minutes. I fully expected it to never work again. Wrong I was! Works great to this day. Takes good shots. Easy to use. Actually waterproof! The only thing I would change is that there is no cover for the lens. You really need to take a cleaning cloth with to wipe off the lens or your shots may look smudgy from crapola that always tends to gather on an exposed camera lens. Other than that, I highly recommend this camera.
good but not amazing pictures August 29, 2010
bktw (san francisco)
I typically shoot with a DSL in RAW but also used to have a little Panasonic Lumix that recently died. Bought this camera for family trips that tend to include water activities (and hopefully it won't die anytime soon). Wish this camera had RAW.
I shot over 700 pics on recent lake trip. What I found:
- camera is waterproof
- used on P (not Auto) mode almost exclusively - I set the ISO to lower amount as the higher ISO pictures (that Auto often chose to shoot in) aren't worth bothering with - they have a ton of grain and poor color. I also found I needed to use exposure compensation typically at around -2/3rd stop to get rich colored pictures and not have a ton of blown out highlights. I am not sure why Canon likes to have its shots overexposed but my DSL has same tendency. If I had been using camera right out of the box in Auto mode (as I did at home for a couple weeks before the trip) I would be very disappointed with the resultant pictures (as I was). In Auto mode too many end up grainy, poor color, etc.
- macro - works pretty well although item has to be fairly near center of picture - couldn't necessarily get it to focus where I wanted it to focus.
- did shoot underwater but lake was cloudy so can't comment on underwater setting color
- isn't great for low light action but does great in bright light
- using flash for fill (forced flash mode) on bright days was a bit of a disaster - the flash was so bright even at 7' or so away that pictures look unreal. Unless I can figure out a way to turn flash down I won't be able to use it for fill. It does seem to do a decent job in darker light settings as flash (or does what you expect a small camera flash to do but at least correctly exposes main/centered subject).
- movies - what you'd expect
- I did buy an extra battery (based on other reviews) but didn't end up needing it on any one day despite a fair amount of shooting and movie taking and reviewing pictures each day.
Good camera for outdoor wet activities - and children who drop things. Spend a little time with the manual and camera and you will improve your shots immeasurably - camera CAN take good pictures but won't necessarily without a little help.
The camera is "cute" and my kids love the way the hand strap can be put on any of the 4 corners. You can't use a neck strap without buying another custom corner thingie to hang it from. Clever of Canon. I like that the tightener on the handstrap can be used to open the tight latch on the battery compartment.
