 - Great snorkeling accessoryI took some really good photos with this little camera. It was difficult to point and click underwater with a snorkeling mask and currents to contend with, but considering that, it performed well. I picked up pretty good color. I didn't take pictures of anything through more than a few feet of water, which is what I've heard prevents it from getting colors. It's also not for use much below the surface. Rating:  - Wasn't waterproofPurchased this camera for the waterpark. The first picture was crystal clear and then the remaining pictures were all cloudy and some were barely visable. For a waterproof camera, I felt it wasn't waterproof at all and it wasn't worth the amount I spent on the camera and processing. I wouldn't recommend it. Rating:  - Waterproof CameraI purchased this camera after reading the reviews of it and other disposables for sale. I had my doubts about the quality of pics that it would produce or if it would even work at all. I just developed my pics and they came out better than I had anticipated. The clear water of the Bahamas probably helped that as well. They of course are not professional or high grade shots, be realistic with expectations please. I have 2 more to try out hope they work as well. Rating: - good for cloudy pics and dim colorsmy wife and i bought 3 of these cameras for our trip to St Maarten. the ones we took above water for the most part came out fine (as expected with any camera) but the underwater pics were cloudy and didnt pick up the colors of the fish/sea life we photographed. You are better off drawing an underwater picture w/ crayons because you will get better results. Rating: - Finally!Finally, a throwaway camera that CAN be used for SCUBA diving. 35 Feet is the perfect depth to see good underwater creatures (25 - 60 is the general range). Plus the Superia X-TRA 800 35mm film is made especially for underwater light, managing the magenta and blues will be balanced, making your pictures more realistic than with regular film. The camera colors are perfect for easy visibility as well. I'll bet this could go to 50 feet in depth, but that is risking it. The manufacturer's are always conservative. Don't forget its great for snow skiing as well. Good product for the price!
