It worked great... 'till the end of the vacation. August 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I reciently purchased this camera from Amazon.com(great price) and took it to Jamaica. It is such a cool experience diving into water with a camera and taking very unique pictures. The camera worked great for the entire 6 days my wife and I were on vacation until it stopped working completely on the last day. We took the camera snorkeling several times for close to an hour. Each time, I rinsed off the camera with fresh water, opened the battery case and removed small beads of water, and left the case open to dry completely.
I am a bit dissappointed in the waterproof performance of this camera, however it did take great pics when it was working. Amazon.com was great about taking the product back and giving me a full refund, and I will try another 770sw. This time, perhaps I will be more carefull and dilligent about caring for it for use under water. Hopefully it will perform better in the future.
good product August 9, 2008 good quality product, even do I do not like to take out the battery to charge it, I do not see the reason why take out the battery, it crashed and works great, a few scratches, but good so far
Great Camera August 9, 2008 This is a great camera to use anywhere and anytime-snowboarding, scuba diving and pics of fireworks. Compact size, great pictures, easy to use
Great pics and proved its "-proof" features August 8, 2008 We were so very pleased with this camera having bought it for its "-proof" factors of shock-proof and water-proof. We used it for the first time on a trip to Puerto Vallarta where it equipped us for amazing pictures of an incredibly beautiful place. It held up great for the underwater snorkeling adventure, and zipline tour in the rainforest, and the accidental fling from my 11 yr old's wrist to the concrete - took a few minor dents from that, but I'll take a little cosmetic blemish over a broken camera anyday! Love this camera and highly recommend it for outdoor adventures. You never know who's really behind product reviews and what you can trust, but I thank everyone who posted great, informative reviews of this camera to influence my purchase because it was well worth the money spent!
Great Camera! August 7, 2008 This camera takes great stills and videos. The underwater photos are really great! I had my son try it out in our pool during his recent visit here. He and his wife had such fun and we all loved the pool photos! I found only one problem: In my nights shots, there sometimes is a "string" of graduating light spots in the photos. Not always and I haven't yet figured out what causes it. The rest of my experience with the 770SW is all Positive. I've taken so many photos and videos in the few short months I've had it. I love this camera and so does my son. I'm seriously considering buying one for him. His birthday is coming up in November. I recommend this camera to anyone who likes to have fun. It is so easy to use, too.
