My first roll was ASA400, and I got some very nice underwater pics. One must be careful underwater as the lighting gets poor very quickly. This is a cute little camera that is everything that the ad says that it is. The pictures are good, but there is no exposure control. It's just harder to experiment with a film camera, as you can't immediately see what you've just photographed. Other pics were grainy. If the user is willing to experiment with various film speeds and gets a feeling for what lighting will work, then you'll love the results.
Just remember that you get of it what you put into it. I've only gotten one roll of film back, so everything here is preliminary. All underwater photography is like this, so this is nothing new.For the price, it's great. I'm now trying ASA800.The good: The waterproof case is fine, and the camera is very affordable. So if the light is good, and you're careful, you'll get good results.The Bad: The aperture is fixed at f:9, and shutter speed is 1/125. If you're willing to experiment, you'll be pleased. I just wish there was a switch to open up the aperture at the expense of close focus.
I use this camera once, but all pictures underwater and on the beach come out very good.No problem at all.Only if I can shut the power off when this camera in the waterproof box I can save battery power. Othervise it is exelent for the prise.
This is a great little camera. I actually threw it into the pool and it floated. I bought it for the waterproof capabilities, but turns out the pictures arn't too bad either.
I have neevr tried disposable underwater cameras, so I have nothing to compare to. But, twice the price for printing.
The casing is actually really nice. I guess you really can't complain about much when it some to the price of this camera.
The one good thing is that if you scan the pictures into a comuter you can fix the color so they do look decent. I took two rolls of film while in Hawaii and thought at least a few pictures would turn out pretty well.
Not really, it seems that the flash doesn't always work making most of the pictures too dark to see anything. Make sure that when you bring the camera under water that you wipe in front of the lens (little bubbles gather in the yellow circle).
It's better than nothing I guess.
We are extremely happy with our underwater camera. We have taken super pictures of our 3 year old granddaughter swimming underwater. While some of the pictures didn't turn out it was because we were aiming down at the bottom of the pool. It's not professional quality but at the price it was worth just the fun of playing with our granddaughter.
