I rented this camera for 7 days from Lensrentals.com and came away somewhat disappointed in this camera system. I used this setup indoors, at the beach and in a pool.
Here are my reviews for this particluar camera/camera housing set up.
Indoors/Fish tank:
When I used this a local coral/fish wholesale store to get product photos of their inventory the photos mainly came out blurred even when I braced the camera against the sides of the tank. Close up shots came out ok. Sharpness in the close up shots is poor. I was having a hard time changing the settings to get a fast shutter speed to compensate for my slight movement (which my DSLR had no issue with).
Beach:
On this particular day at the beach I could see with my eyes open underwater a good 2ft maybe 3ft. None of the shots underwater came out clear but when used out of the water on the beach in landscape mode the camera was just like any other good quality point-n-shoot. When in video mode is when I had the most fun with the camera and got the best results while underwater.
Pool:
I think this was the best setting for the camera. Although the photos came out extra blue they were clear and pretty sharp.
In my opinion this is a cool little camera and with a little more time to play with the Sea & Sea DX-2G I am sure I could get better results along with using the lighting accesories that SEA&SEA have for the camera.
