How deep can you go with this camera
383349
the specs on the camera are waterproof to 18m/59ft, shock proof to 2m/2.2ft., freeze proof to -10*c/14*f. i only use it while snorkeling, so i cannot give a first hand review of its capabilities while diving with it. for snorkeling, it works great! any deeper than that i imagine you would need a bigger flash to capture any color. i also have to make sure to change the settings to underwater before taking the camera in the water.

You should be able to go to 18 meters. However, at 10 meters the camera started to fail, and once above water I found water droplets inside the battery/sim card compartment. I would not plan on using this camera for anything more than in the rain, on a kayak or water sport with a floatie attached, and at the most snorkeling, so no more than 1 meter. It's not worth the risk to ruin the camera

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 only waterproof to 10 feet with the housing I can take pictures while scuba diving at 100 ft! Also, if housing were to leak ( not that it ever has) the camera will not be ruined because it is waterproof!

My experience is that the camera is limited to about 30 - 40 ft. The trigger seems to be the limiting factor.

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.

I'm not sure but I don't think there is any housing designed to let you take the camera deeper. It seems to me that the controls on the camera are not well adapted to being placed in a housing.

I am not sure what that is referring to. Nothing on the camera is 8 inches. The body is a little over 4 inches wide and a little over 2 inches tall. It is 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 deep depending on how much zoom you are using. I am not sure why I got this question, but hope my answer helps.

This is my opinion on your question. This camera is not designed to take pictures less than 18 inches from the subject so I would say it is not suitable for what you want to do. Secondly, doing what you purpose would be a very low-light situation and even if the camera would do closeup exposures there would be issues with the pictures and any movement of the subject would be blurred.

Approximately 6 inches. The material in the cord no noubt would do find in water. The hardware which is what you can find in any hardware store, would probably not do as well. I suspect it is stainless steel so it should be OK. If the cord/hardware is allowed to dry fully and the hardware gets some silicone spray afterwards, I think you s/b fine. Not practical if the camera goes underwater in a bag or box. Hope that helps.

It depends on the camera. They are all different and you need to look closely at the depth as it can affect the quality of the pictures. For this particular model, it was 50 feet. There are some that go to 35 ft or less. Also the clarity of the water and the lighting also affects things. I would tell you that I used this camera with snorkeling and it did a decent job at 20 feet. My pictures turned out and I love them.

My camera looks at my back yard. It is looking about 300 feet deep and 200 feet wide. I can zoom on the furthest point at my shop and the picture is clear. The colors are amazing with this camera also. It has 5 zoom points and an auto focus. Out of my 9 cameras this one is the best I have. The camera is a bit larger than most bullet style cameras just so you know. Therefore I think it will do the job just fine on your back yard. It is well worth the money. I hope this helps you.

I dont see why not. The camera has pretty good zoom capability, but would likely serve better a bit higher up than 8 feet. The camera itself is a bit larger than you might expect from pictures.

I used it about 4-6ft underwater and it worked well...but it's really difficult to work the actual camera options from this case.

I only went 8 feet deep. I have it for emergencies and not for regular submersive use like diving. I think you might want a more specialized flashlight for a specific use underwater, however, it has not leaked yet. It is great in the rain!!! LOL

My setup only allowed me to take pics at 35ft. Cameras are the best in its price range and the service dept is great. Cant beat em.

i had an old polariod camera that was pretty small. it fit but when i was more than 10 ft down the was soft and compressed so it wouldnt work properly. for the specific camera u asked about i dont know because i dont have that one. we did end up buying a waterproof shock proof camera that we like to use much better. its easier and worth the 250 or so we paid for it plus its a good every day camera.

I would say about 3-4 inches in depth. It really doesn't take up much space at all.
