Rating:  - wonderful underwater and above water photosjust got back from a trip to the Galapagos - used the camera underwater in video mode during snorkeling and above land in both video and still. Great shots. Easy to use and definately waterproof. Rating:  - Grainy and Blurry I was so excited to get this camera, but was really disappointed with the picture quality. Low-light conditions made for extremely blurry and grainy photos. I tried to use the proper shooting mode, but that didn't help at all. Outdoor pics in bright sun were pretty good, although once the pics were on the computer I couldn't tell if they were taken with my old 3MP camera or the new Pentax 10MP. I was hoping to be blown away by the pictures but was not impressed at all. A few other cons- Navigating the menu was counterintuitive The buttons are tiny. Lens is always uncovered These last things could be overlooked, but the poor picture quality makes this camera a no-go. Rating:  - Tragically flawed cameraI purchased this camera for an upcoming flyfishing trip to New Zealand where inclement weather reigns supreme. It is not unusual to get 7 days of bad weather in row, hard rain snow, down in Fiordland. Having taken several trips before I thought this camera might be the perfect solution. Previously I had carried my camera in plastic ziploc bag to protect from the inadvertant dip into one of Fiordland's ice cold streams. here was the camera for me. Waterproof and 10 megapixels. I read some of the reviews about poor quality pictures but then there were some rave reviews. I had no idea how bad the pictures could be. Every picture had a bow distortion which bent every straight line. Colours were not even close to reality even when adjusting with manual settings. Also in low light there was huge noise. No comparison with my old Canon 2 megapixel digital elph. Granted if you want a camera that you don't care about. It's light and waterproof and so it would would have served but I couldn't give up all that beauty I wanted to photograph. Also this camera isn't cheap. For less money I got a new Canon Elph SD790. What a difference in the colours. And then to deal with the weather I spent a little more money and got a waterproof case. I'm extremely satisfied although in the end I've spent more money with this solution. Rating:  - WELL WORTH THE PRICEI own the W-30 , and was pleased with it ,3 years and no problems!! . The 60 is a worth while upgrade , just for the wide angle lense. the 3 to now 5 power zoom is also nice , but the HD video at 15 frames is a waste! I do everything around ,on ,or under water and like the feel and size (very sturdy) and locking device very much and would recomend to anyone with same hobbies Rating: - pentax waterproof cameraSmall size, waterproof to 10 feet, dust resistant, relatively easy to operate. All in all a good buy for outdoor activity. Extensive menu for different operations is a bit of a time sink to learn but many options make for better flexibility after going up the learning curve.
