I attempted to take the photo under water and it was SUPER clear but clear enough

Sorry, I've never tried to take pictures under water. If the case isn't scratched, I assume they will be okay.

The pictures are actually pretty good. They are good in distance as well. Hope this helps.

It should be fine.. You can take pictures underwater. It is sealed very well! It tells you in the manual what to do. Hope this helps.

We feel the camera captures light very well. We did not try underwater shots. We played around on beach with splashes etc. but not underwater. This is the best camera we have ever owned for quality and ease of operation. Recommend highly.

camera has been used underwater (swimming pool). video was relatively clear. acceptable. sound was muffled due to case and water affects on sound. overall, very pleased with camera performance underwater

I suggest getting the flat lens housing. You get better video above and below water and the filters will help with color underwater, lights are really the best though.

I took mine on a float trip in the river. Took pictures and even some underwater video with it.

It fit and works. It is a slight trick to get it to work correctly. I took pictures under water and it was descent. I guess that depends on your camera quaility. It is a lot better than those cheap Polaroid under water cameras, which I have also tested. For the price, you can't beat it.

YES. The camera is fully submersible and functional underwater. There is even an underwater mode to eliminate the blue "tint" from underwater pictures and bring out the vibrant colors of whatever you are shooting underwater.

It does go under water just fine. We didn't buy the camera for the quality, but rather for taking on trips where we wouldn't want a quality waterproof camera stolen. Like a cruise. It takes pictures well enough that we can capture the moment. At the same time, it can get dropped in the water or take pictures while snorkeling, whatever we need. AND...we don't have to worry about it being very expensive.

No protective case needed in water. I had a good experience with this camera. For the money, I felt the picture quality was fine. It provided me decent underwater shots on my snorkeling trip in Cancun and we used it on land out on the beach too so I could keep my Nikon D5000 away from the sand. I was pleased overall because for the price, I wasn't expecting much. It was better than expected.

I have not tried to use it under water so I cannot answer that. All I know is that she will only get 5 or 6 pictures at the most before it will use all of the battery. I have tried rechargeable batteries too, it eats the power.

My camera is completely waterproof. I have 3 small children and that is the best test for shock and under water. Over a year now and it is as sturdy as can be. Don't expect very high quality pics but for normal use is very good. And fun...

Not well. The camera seems to be ideal for bright environments. I tried to capture some low-light under-water scenes and the camera recorded just black.

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 though the camera was good for water pictures. Wouldn't use it for any other reason. Pic to pic time is average and once you turn it on it is ready to go.

I have used the camera in it's underwater case. The video is fine as long as you don't go so deep that it gets dark. The video playback is excellent. I have two of these cameras and am very pleased.
