Is this waterproof, or water resistant? I'd like to take something into the pool for basic underwater video. Will this work?

For basic underwater it should work, unless depth is too high and probably below 25 feet is not indicated.

waterproof. It can stay underwater for extended periods of time, up to 30 feet.

This camera it waterproof down to 30-feet. It value price and good performance camera. I would recommend

Yes. Took it to Hawaii about 5 to 10 ft no problem. Make sure you aim it upright when you start filming since the gyro orients automatically when you start. Very good pictures and videos in pool water and clear springs we went in. Ocean was good too.

Yes! This is a terrible camera! I bought it because I was going to a water park with my family. After it went underwater (less than 3 feet) a couple of times it stopped working. I opened it up and noticed water had gone in through the casing even though it was closed correctly. Besides that the focus and zoom is terrible! I took it back and got my money back right away. There are newer and better waterproof cameras out there and I would invest in a different model/brand. Sorry for the delay in my response.

It's not waterproof but it should be ok under a roof. The video is somewhat grainy so if you're wanting clear video you may want to look at a higher quality camera. It is ok for what we need.

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 use mine for swimming laps occasionally and it is waterproof so far. I think the jarring from the fall into the water may be a problem, though.

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.

Don't think it's submersible...those bags usually have some kind of zip closure and this one does not. I would not try it with my camera inside but it's great for splash proofing.

I does shoot video, but I didn't try any underwater. I puchased an 8 GB Micro SD card (which is the most memory the Camera takes)... Shot answer the camera did NOT come with a micro card.

We hav only used it in the pool but am unaware of a depth limit? It takes excellent underwater video for sure! We love it!

No its not water resistant you can't get in the pool with it, but the sweat won't hurt it. The sweat is Okay it does not harm your device. Just can't submerge the unit in water.

No, it is not waterproof. It is splash and dust resistant. In other words you can take photos in the rain or at the beach using one of Pentax's sealed lenses. You cannot submerge the camera in water. It is a solid well constructed camera. I've had mine since 2008 with no problems.

I have not taken video with the camera let alone underwater. Sorry I did not have the answer you were looking for.

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.

It doesn't appear to be waterproof but I haven't had a reason to find out. I definitely would not immerse it with a camera inside.

It is water and weather resistant, not meant to be submerged for underwater use. Pentax also carries a waterproof line of cameras, the WG line

Have not used the camera underwater. I don't think it is really meant for that and it is not a touch screen model.

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.
