Rated 2 out of 5

decent beginner underwater camera

The camera takes pictures. But the shutter speed is slow, which makes blurry pictures very common, and the LCD is such a low resolution that you can't tell if your pictures are blurry until you review them on a computer. So you'll never know if you need to retake a shot. The built in flash does not illuminate your shot evenly, a design flaw that is mentioned in their manual. Their solution? Go buy an external flash lol. All in all, it's not a great camera. Horrible for a photographer, but it will get the job done for amateurs looking to get a couple pictures of their first few dives. If I could, I would have waited and bought something much more expensive. But hey, it did what I needed it to.

About Sea & Sea DX1200HD Digital 12 MP Camera, Housing Set

The Sea & Sea DX-1200HD Compact Digital 12 MP Camera has 3-inch widescreen LCD monitor which allows you to check even the smallest details in the pictures you take and enjoy playing back movies with high definition. By using the LCD monitor hood and inner hood especially designed for the DX-1200HD housing you can further improve the underwater visibility and take pictures while tracking the movements of the subject on the LCD monitor.

The basic design was completely revised and the grips were further improved so even beginners can enjoy taking pictures easily. The new design will certainly satisfy the needs of full underwater diving scenes but it also offers portability and ease of use that allow it to be used for marine sports in general and winter sports as well, offering maximum convenience to the photographer. The optional Close-UP Lens 125 or Wide-Angle Conversion Lens for DX-860G can be attached/ detached even underwater (Close-UP Lens 125 requires the optional Close-UP Lens Ring for DX-1200HD). Using the wide-angle conversion lens, you can get a wider area in the picture even if you get close to the subject. Using the Close-UP Lens 125, you can take pictures with a larger magnification.
