4 Stars Great Camera….Great Price
I’ve just had this camera for about 1 month and so far, so good. No problems, easy to use & excellent picture quality !!!!!
3 Stars Worked great till it died.
I looked all over for a good camera I could take paddleboarding and not worry about it getting wet if I fell in. Got some great pics the first two trips, but it died on the 3rd. Must be something with the seals on the camera. I was extra careful when opening and closing the hatches but it looks like water got in there. The door seals didn’t ever quite feel 100% closed to me, so I’m guessing that’s where the water got in.
Canon has always had great customer service, so other than the pain of returning it, it’s no biggie.
I think I’d go with one of those hard plastic housings for my older point n shoot instead. Those things never leak, but are a bit bulkier and UGLY.
5 Stars Very pleased with my purchase
Initially I was hesitant to purchase this camera because of the bad reviews on the shape and size of the camera. I have to say I’m glad I went ahead and purchased it. By far, it has the best features compared to all other waterproof cameras. I’m not in love with the shape of the camera (it’s submarine looking)however, I can’t commplain when it comes to the functionalities and features. Overall, I am happy with this product. I bought it specifically for my trip to Jamaica and I was quite pleased with its performance. I would however recommend that you buy one of those plastic covers to protect the screen. I already scratched mine =(.
5 Stars easy to use
have had several other canons so I felt quite comfortable picking up this camera and starting to use it. A little bulky for my pocket but really not bad as the last camera I had was just as big (had bigger camera to get larger zoom). I love not having to feel like I have to keep this camera wrapped in foam in my purse- I am rough on things and that is why I got this camera, and so far I love it though really haven’t had it that long.
1 Star fisherprice enters the waterproof camera scene
Felt like a beer can in my pocket and looked like fisher price designed this camera for a 3yr old.Sorry folks, this is not ergonomically designed is any way shape or form. Images were mediocre at best. Actual use was very simple because… IT HAS NO FEATURES! Point and hope at its best. Like a relic from a time capsule when compared to most other cameras on the market. But in all fairness, sometimes simple people need simple cameras. And rather than cursing the darkness, I’ll light a flame, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 is amazing.
