Don't buy it Im having problems transfer photos to my computer using usb insert the usb cable in battery compartment is under the camera the batteries fall out you need to switch on camera to transfer to computer. crap.

You certainly live up to your username

Ok - I've found a pretty spectacular solution for about £77 (£60 if you don't need the case). Admittedly, it is an action cam rather than a normal camera --- but it is robust, and delivers exceptional video.

I personally think the video is at least on par with the GoPro's....which cost 4x as much!

Take it you dont have kids?mine would break a concrete boulder,so whats the point of an expensive camera? :confused:

feel free to spend an extra £70 odd quid for an HD on then :wink: but this is going to be great for the kids to take on holiday :smiley:

She's got a deep trench if you like that sort of thing.

Itll be **** , believe me

i have similar

tbf they redeemed themselves asking if to do with the weight of the water which it basically is.

have seem plenty more stupid things said on this forum!

Mariana sounds like a nice lady...

the underwater video seemed fine for a £40 camera,remember it maybe the way the person has uploaded to youtube which can determine the quality

I got about 100.

Quality isn't great and I wouldn't even consider using it as a camera out of water, but as a basic underwater camera I think it's adequate for the price.

Where were you in physics lessons?

Pressure increases as depth increases >

The pressure at the bottom of the ocean is absolutely massive. No human could survive down there on his/her own, we weren't designed for such enormous pressure. Sea creatures have evolved to cope with the massive pressures, the ocean is vast and mostly unexplored, we're still discovering new lifeforms.

It would seem to be a 'Maginon 80 Splash' camera...so that will hopefully help you all in determining whether it is any good or not.

I cannot believe you asked that question :smiley:. Here's a 3 hour and 20 minute education in what happens to air filled capsules as one goes deeper...

It's also probably one of the most powerful examples of the horror of war that I have seen. Amazing film/TV series :smiley:

Bang goes my idea for using this at the bottom of the Mariana Trench :disappointed:

Bingo! The deeper you go the higher the water pressure and the more likely it is to find a leak path into the electronics.

Yes, the increased water pressure from being over 3M (10ft) deep is very high. This is fine for swimming pools and snorkeling, but wouldn't be for scuba.

If it takes a decent enough picture it's abit of a bargain but there's almost naff all information online to find out before buying.

What's the difference? 10m or 20m it's still in water! Or is it because of the weight of the water...

Ive had a total of 3 low cost under water cameras...... all have failed soon after use. Not saying this one will, but Ivew given up for the moment until I can afford a decent one.

I got one last year Great little camera used underwater in the sea and at the water parks got some great holiday photos underwater and standard ones also didn't leak like a previous Polaroid one did.

Might be a stupid question but could this be used in sea water?

This definitely looks like something that would be of use to me taking up the mountains (etc) in any weather condition... be interesting to see how it performs though. I looked at cheap options not so long ago and they didn't get great reviews of taking photos in normal / dry conditions.

This is at the low end of price range that the waterproof Polaroids knock about in (though they're not quite as cheap).

Is it feasible that Polaroid re-badge stuff...?? or stuff gets re-badged as Polaroid?? :wink: (apologies, this is definitely different to the Aldi one, but to give you an example of what I mean - http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/cameras/digital-cameras/compact-digital-cameras/polaroid-if045-waterproof-compact-digital-camera-blue-21534948-pdt.html )

HOT

Love to see someone use the self timer underwater :smiley:

Great price.......

I don't know much about cameras but for that price it seems a fairly good spec and you have always got Aldi 60 day return policy, so heat added!
