At first when i got this camera I loved it, it takes really good clear photographs, and in water too, I got some really cool shots in my swimming pool.. HOWEVER the battery cover somehow opened and water got inside and all of a sudden that was it. Never worked again, and before you think, it was carelessness, it was not, I was very careful and at the end of the day it’s meant to be an active sporty camera. So anyway cut a long story short, i sent it back to get repaired as i had a guarantee. However the result came back telling me 'it was due to my carelessness' and they would not repair the damage. It was going to cost £230 to get it repaired. 'i paid something like £280 so i really didn’t see the point.
I would not get another one, as i know a few people who this same thing has happened to. So i don’t trust them in water. And you can get a lot of cameras just as good (out of water) for much cheaper.
