is the camra water proof?

I have had it hanging in the woods for about three years almost straight, it has survived all the rain, snow and bad weather that Colorado can throw at it. I won't say waterproof because I am not the one who makes the camera but mine has survived all the water it has been through and still takes great pictures. I highly recomend

I never had any problem leaving it out in the rain but I wouldn't submerge it in a lake or anything.

Yes, it is waterproof. However, it snaps a lot of nothing shots. The battery compartment got a bunch of some type of bugs in it while out in the woods.

Yes indeed. I have had mine outside in rain and snow for the past year or more. Just make sure it is snapped closed!

I don't think so. It does not say anywhere that the camera is waterproof...I wont take chance to use it under rain. GOOD LUCK

pretty sure you need a case to submerge the cam. It is water resistant - like snowboarding or motorcycling in a light shower - both of which I have done with mine. But that's prob about as far as I would go.

I have used several of these and they are not waterproof at all. Once they get misty inside they take forever to dry out. My son has no problem with the one I installed for him because the mount is rather well encapsulated,but I don't think he has taken it through a car wash. The cameras I bought had had four vent holes in the back, so "water resistant" is probably what the "waterproof" specification the manufacturer refers to means. And, I can't close without mentioning that my experience was that these cameras tend to turn green and red into pink. That makes for very pretty landscapes, but no so much for color accuracy.

I installed my camera outside, it is metal and weather proof, not underwater.

Waterproof might be a stretch, I would say water resistant or splash proof. Its a great radio for us as a backup on our large sailboat. Probably not a good choice on a kayak or jet ski.

Yes. The AW 11-27.5 mm and the AW 10 mm lenses that are shipped with this camera are both waterproof.

Yes 100% water proof. Great radio batteries last a long time cool features too many for me to use.

The camera is somewhat weather-proof but not exactly waterproof. It can withstand getting a bit wet in the rain or some splashes in a kayak but if it were submerged in the water, it will almost certainly get ruined.

More water resistant than anything. I know there are some on the market you can submerge in water, but I love having a camera that works and a phone to talk on and I know you sacrifice on both of those with something that is completely waterproof.

I've never tested it out as far as waterproof, but it is a dense canvas and the insides and camera inserts are plastic so I would assume it's waterproof. I don't think it has a grip for tripods. There is a 2 inch strip on the back where something could be attached. The loop it makes is not big enough to slide a tripod through, though. A monopod, maybe.

water resistant. Keep in mind it is Gen 1 and DO NOT use in anything but very low light.

It is weather proof. Which means rain/snow proof as well as against fine dust in a desert environment.Only and only cameras designed especially for underwater photography are water proof. K10D was never meant to be for underwater photography. Having said that with special underwater housing designed for K10D (WHICH COULD BE AS EXPENSIVE AS THE CAMERA ITSELF), it can be used for underwater photography as well.

Loralai - no, it is not waterproof. I am quite happy with the camera, however.

It is water and weather resistant, not meant to be submerged for underwater use. Pentax also carries a waterproof line of cameras, the WG line

No. It can handle temperature fluctuations documented in the spec sheet, but it is not ruggedized, nor is it moisture tolerant. I believe Foscam sells weather-resistant kits and hardened models as well.

I brought the cameras to the tropics where rainfall is higher than here in the US. So far I did not have any problems with water going into the cameras. I should say they are waterproof.
