I found the same as everyone else, pictures are no that great it leaks and fogs, etc. I find the videos not that bad but shakey. The last dive I did I held it in my hand and used another mask, the video was much better and very steady I could also look elsewhere while shooting, it worked pretty good this way, definetly would not wear it again unless I had to

Great concept, poor execution. The field of view is narrow but acceptable above water. The different refractive index underwater makes that angle so narrow as to make this camera virtually useless. Difficult to aim. Slight head movements makes for jerky video. Recommended lens range is .5-2.5m. Shooting your dive buddy at 2.5m, you see less than half their body. My trying to shoot whale sharks was a joke. Liquid images told me they are releasing a wider angle version but no lens mods for this model. My tough luck I guess.

I received this mask as a gift for father's day from my wife and kids. They were very excited to give it to me because of what a fun idea the mask is. I was pretty excited myself because now I could show my kids the wonders of scuba diving AND have my hands free to interact with wild life.
I decided to first try it out snorkeling in the lake where I was sure to get 50 ft. visibility and would be able to deal with any issue easily. The first draw back I had with the mask was a constant leak from the side. I tried to tighten it up but the strap locks were unable to hold any adjustments I made. Then it of course began to fog and I was constantly taking it off to clear the lenses. After multiple surface dives and shooting picture and video in various activities I was excited to get home and check out what I had captured.
This was the final disappointment for me. The video was VERY choppy regardless if I was moving or not and the photos were about the same quality that you would expect from a disposable camera. All of those things aside I found myself resigned to using it as a fun novelty …….right up to the point I found out how much it cost! For that amount money I would have expected much more. An image stabilized camera at the being the very least of it.
I have since returned the camera/mask to the store and used the money to add multiple useful items to my SCUBA tackle box. I really love the idea of a camera mask and you can tell that the design was well thought out, but in the age of 10 mega pixel cell phone cameras I would have expected a bit more quality technology in this item.

It's not worth investing a penny! The mask leaks all the time, I wasted most of dive time clearing it. The biggest problem with it is when you try to get the angle of the camera right! Last weekend I filmed an eagle ray with it and the result is (IT'S SHADOW)!!! I thought the angle was right, but it wasn't, it's either too high or too low!

[...] I think the packaging and design leaves it look like it is not a high quality product. after spending [$] - I wanted it to have a WOW effect. the only affect I had was, wow, wrong impression.
