Great for Underwater
This camera is great for underwater shots. It is waterproof to 33 feet I believe. I take it snorkeling with me and I take it in the water while swimming on the beach. I also use it in the backyard to take some cool shots of friends in the pool. If you are looking for an inexpensive underwater camera to play around with, this is great. Do not expect great quality "land" pictures. I do like that it is so durable though. Ive dropped it numerous times, its fine. Image Quality Only the underwater pictures come out great. Any pictures I try to take outside the water do not come out good. This camera my husband and I use when we do not want to take the "good" camera somewhere because of the weather, underwater or whatever reason but the picture quality is not that great. Performance It performs great underwater. Ease of Use It is very easy to use. Even underwater. Durability I have dropped it, taken it climbing on glaciers, in deserts, underwater. It is extremely durable. Battery Life Like all electronics, the battery life was good at first, then it started to go dead very quickly. I have since replaced the battery a few times. Olympus batteries are expensive but worth it because all of the generic ones I have bought do not last. Portability It is small and easy to carry. I bought a case for it that I can wear on my neck or shoulder.
