Nope. For me (Galaxy fits snugly) & my friend who used it with her I Phone (it had a bit of room in it), the pictures were just fine. I didn't record, just took pictures.

It looks really good. Used it at The water park and had great under water photos of the kids. It's definitely a recommended buy

no its pretty clear. but you can't really take any pictures under water because the touch screen wont work underwater. I just press record then replay the video to the scene i like than screen shot it. also when you go under water it zooms in and out on its own. I think its because its sensing the water pressure.

My pictures came out fine. Underwater, the pics seemed a bit murky but i don't think it was because of the plastic. I don't think the water was crystal clear. Im happy with my purchase

I don't think this was made to use the LCD screen while videoing so there's no reason for the LCD screen to be on inside the waterproof housing. I believe the LCD screen is included in order to view what you had just videoed. I hope this helped.

Mmmmm...never thought of that. My husband has a GoPro and got a different extension that telescopes but did not use it under water. Sorry I could not be more of a help

It is pretty good even underwater, same with the video quality and it also records audio as well. I use a 32 gb external memory card so the resolution for still pictures and video were at maximum

I don't know as I've not tried it yet. Do know that the housing fogged up so I'm guessing pictures didn't work. Again, I've not actually viewed the video i took, but from past underwater camera experience, if the housing is fogged there is no way a good pic can come out.

The camera is truly amazing. But I had a minor issues with it under water. When I used it once under water it developed condensation in the lens afterwards. I am not using it under water anymore which is a pity but I do not want to ruin otherwise nice camera. I suspect there is some kind of leak and I would be thankful for any advice.

I didnt see much of distortion. It just crops a bit from top and bottom. U can even chose not to be on full screen.

It has a thick clear plastic coating over the metallic pieces. As long as the coating is intact it should be fine. We've used 3 of these, heavy use, 2 have stayed intact for years, but on 1 the plastic has split open. Oddly it is the newest one I've had & I cut off the loose part of the plastic. Don't think it's steel, it's a very polished smooth metal, but not sure. Time will tell if perspiration causes a problem. One thing though, don't wrap the strap tight around the camera to store it. It bends/kinks the plastic in the same places over & over. I think this can cause the plastic to crack & fail evenutally, It has a thick clear plastic coating over the metallic pieces.

Not that I seen? It just adds the fish eye effect without the black outer lines. Sorry I can't be much help I'm barley new to video cameras and recording. Hope this helped a little though :)

I absolutely did not encounter this issue... this camera took excellent pictures both in and out of the water. However, one thing you may want to check, if you are taking dry pictures (not in the water), be sure that the scene mode is not set to shoot under water... that is sure to create some image quality issues.

Sorry, don´t really know what you mean. You record just straight, that hat you are looking at.However, I cannot recommend this cam. My was broken after the first dive :(

I do not find any distortion at all. It's truly a good image. I am very happy with my purchase.

Jose answered the first question correctly. As far as the second goes I didn't notice any degradation in the video quality. I'm sure there might be an extremely slight bit but it wasn't enough for my untrained unprofessional eye to notice.

My cameras are outside and I have not had a problem with snow. I think a clear plastic bubble will distort your picture, get dirty and provide a slow-drip medium for rain and snow melt, further distorting your image and reflecting back the IR light.

the recorded video and the on-screen stream are affected by the degree of light exposure. Not only the brightness degree but also affect the colours.

They're big on my face, but when upright the video quality is just like how you see the world. It's freaky how good the quality of the vid. is cuz the video look surreal. I mostly record during the day time when I used it, but if your recording in the dark the vid would probably have many shadow looking areas. (i agree with the previous commenter when looking through the sunglasses the frame of the sunglasses makes what you see dark, but not the vid. Itself). Btw make sure u charge the glasses overnight. It takes a long time for my glasses to charge and the battery don't last long enough for me. They're big on my face, but when upright the video quality is just like how you see the world.
