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.

You can wash it with water or dip it in shallow water. It survived being in pocket while I was under water in a pool.

It is in fact waterproof; however, the picture quality stinks. The quality is like when the first digital cameras came out with like 1.5 pix. I wouldn't recommend you buying this camera.

it's designed to go under water. However i bought one for my daughter for christmas 2012 probably has about 100 pictures through it and now the screen is black so she cant take pictures but she can still view them on the LCD screen. Amazon says it's out of warranty and i cant figure out any other way to exchange it

They say the camera can go underwater up to 9.8 feet. i haven't had mine in water but I've had problems with the flash not working under dim light conditions. I think the camera is cheap with a poor operating program.Spend a little more money and get a better camera. I do not recommend it.

The camera is waterproof, I used it while snorkeling in about 6 feet of water and it worked great taking some very good photos. For the price, you cannot beat it.

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...

The camera is not waterproof. It is water resistant. I don't know what the IP rating is.

My opinion is no. It didn't work for me. I wasted my money on the camera, memory card, and my entire pictures from my trip. I would not recommend buying this "waterproof" camera.

The cameras are Weather proof meaning they can be mounted outside and are able to work on normal weather conditions such as rain, and sun. the camera cannot be submerge in water. They are not water proof. they are weather proof.

They are rated for outdoor use, so yes they are water-proof. My are tucked up under the eaves of the house. It's a very good camera.

I would go with Samsung's specs of 3m,as far as the warranty for water damage,I would check with Samsung. My personal opinion on anything such as camera's,etc. being able to be submerged is that unless you have a secure waterproof case designed for underwater use,I wouldn't use it for underwater pics. I bought this camera to take to the beach and if it got wet or fell into the water I felt it would take that kind of use(abuse) as compared to a regular digital camera.I hope this helps and sorry for long response.

no. This case is not water proof. It is completely exposed all around. There is a hole for the camera. I would not recommend taking this case underwater.

Andrea,I contacted the manufacturer directly, and they said it was their mistake to print that the camera was "suitable for the backyard." They refunded my money when I pointed out that error. I looked at the camera closely, and it is not sealed and has open vents that would allow water to enter directly enter the electronics of the camera. It wouldn't last very long in the open rain. I suppose if a person could put the camera in a sort of clear plastic box, it might work.Ken

Not sure if the camera is waterproof, I think it will be best to get a camera made to work outside. They're cheap these days.

Unfortunately I was unable to find anything in the paperwork stating it is waterproof. The camera comes with a waterproof case that has buttons for operation, and the remote is definitely water resistant if not waterproof, it would not be effected by rain but I am not sure if it is submersible.

No it is not. The camera is the best I have used. Love the photos but I do keep it in a sealed baggie to prevent dust from getting into the camera so I would think water would really be a problem.

it has a company warranty for 1 year under proper use. the problem with just about any water proof camera this small is the various compartment doors. Being rubber sealed, it relies on a very clean seal to work well. If you do not take care of the seal, it will leak. It is a tough argument between the company and customer about who is at fault there, i lean toward user error. Proper care is to make sure the seal is very clean, never open it in dusty environment (most environment are dusty to some degree) and the doors closed tightly and properly.

It is a float, so it should be waterproof. But I think they mean a float for a waterproof camera. The float should survive at any depth that you can reach; the cameras usually only live up to anywhere between 8 feet and 40 feet. Each camera description tells you how deep you can go.

The unit is water SEALED, not water PROOF. Further, many of the OlyPana lenses aren't weather sealed at all. I used mine extensively in rough weather and kayaking. It has been splashed and sprinkled on without issue. But if you fall in the water and submerge the camera, both camera and lens are going to be toast. Don't let this discourage you from taking it with you, just be aware of the devices limitations. There are many waterproof digital cams out there, but I know of no m43 or DSLR's that are.

The camera does not appear to be waterproof. I would not suggest something outside.

No. My camera lasted only 5 minutes in the water. I had to throw the camera away because it was probably going to cost more to fix it and they would not fix it. I had bought the camera 1 yr and 1 week earlier but had never taken it in the water. My husbands camera lasted slightly longer but it died about 3 months after first being in the water.
