    Not a great camera, not a terrible camera.

    Not a terrible little camera, but a little awkward to operate. The buttons on the back don't correspond to choices on the menus, and make it difficult to navigate and get set up. For example, there is no directional pad or "ok" or "back" buttons, but the interface asks you to hit "ok" or "back" in the screen prompts. Some functions, like the date and time, can't be accessed because the buttons aren't correct. Pictures are not bad in full light, pretty terrible in low light, but that's to be expected for a camera at this price point. On the positive side, I bought this for my young kids to take pictures while camping and they had fun and were able to take pictures and video with little trouble.

    Cheap waterproof camera. For $50 it does exactly what it says it will do. View screen is worthless so you point, shoot, and hope for the best. Took it snorkeling off the coast of Oahu and got the job done. Photos include out of and in the water.

    I bought this camera for my daughter. She really likes it and used it to take pics and videos of herself and her friends. It is priced very well and great for a starter camera. You have to buy a SD card for it.

    super good quality for the price! sound quality on videos was pretty good too (was kind of scared for it due to some reviews; it's not crazy good but it's coherent). brought it to a concert, and I love the product–super affordable!!

    I was looking for an affordable digital camera that I could use to capture my summer without having to worry about it getting wet or breaking it so I wanted to try this camera cause it is a great price and I am so pleased with its performance. The quality is the same as my cannon power shot and the settings are supper simple to understand and change. Overall I highly recommend as a starter digital camera or a burner one.

    great camera, but…

    From my shopping experience on this camera: This camera is great for kids. The camera came with its own protective case, USB cable, and its wrist strap. The only things that’s bad within the camera was the photo quality and the battery life. The photo quality wasn’t that great or that bad. (decent) The battery life is terrible. Just after setting the camera up, the battery went from 3/3 to 2/3 to 1/3 battery filled. After a few minutes, it went from 1/3 to 2/3. Overall, this camera is worth getting.

    Great little camera. Does seem to go through batteries fast if you use it a lot. It takes good pictures but it does not have a fast reaction time so if you are moving and want to take a picture, you most likely will not get the exact picture you want. It was worth the money but it does not snap pictures as fast as a phone.

    Worst camera ever and previous reviews confirmed but I ignored. Very difficult to navigate, directions do not assist in set up as warned. Daughter wanted simple camera for birthday trip and was saddened as most pictures came out blurry and camera froze up in the middle of taking pics. Battery life horrible as warned. Wanted reviews to be wrong but unfortunately for my daughter they were absolutely correct. Extremely disappointed! ☹️

    Perspective is important here. If you’re an adult and you’re passionate about photography, look elsewhere. If you want something cheap that’s waterproof or if you have a young child that is becoming interested in photography it’s a decent pick up.
