(PRO'S) The housing is stylish, and easy to use wit good functionality. Perhaps too many buttons, most divers are going to set up for there intended shots, Macro, or wide angle. This housing lets you change all the settings with out having to open the housing. (CONS) Its a $50 camera in a $1000 housing... 10 flash shots 20 regular on the battery. The camera looks mid 90's at best, it has poor picture quality because if its small inner lense, linked to a 1/16" CCD. You hust choose your opperation mode prior to placing the camera in the housing. Once in the housing; You cann't switch between picture mode, movie mode, or playback mode. This camera made from "Vivatar" uses a small ni-cad battery which only allows you to take a few shots before draining down.
The image quality is better than I thought it would be, for a 6.1MP point and shoot. You just need to make sure it is on the proper setting. At first I thought that you had to choose picture or movie mode before putting the camera into the housing, but after playing with it for a little while, I found out how to switch back and forth while underwater. I am very happy with this camera. The only negative thing I can say is that the battery drains WAY too fast. However, I bought a new Duracell replacement battery from Walmart for $40 and it holds a charge a bit longer.
