This is a great and very solid camera, the strobe is a great addition and I would also reccommend the wide angle lens. Definately shockproof to at least six feet, i've tested that more than once. I was a little concerned b/c I was only using 1 Gb memory cards, but even with that I've taken over 20 minute videos with plenty of room for pictures to spare. I really like the video feature with has sound when replayed on the computer. Unlike other cameras this camera has modes that automatically correct the blue washout you get at depth with other cameras which correct it with use of red lenses. I replaced the wrist straps with one off a flashlight. Really the only complaint I have with this camera is that it has no optical zoom, only digital zoom, with is included with the higher end Sealife DC series. Other than that this is a great camera at a price you can't beat.

The camera delivers great photos with the flash in particular. You have to read the book and practice the settings before you hit the water to enjoy using the camera on a dive. The movie capability was super. I videoed a turtle the first dive and it was great without lights. Unfortunately the camera froze and would not turn off or on during the first dive. The only way to reset it was to open the battery compartment to force it off. Not a good solution underwater as you can imagine. The up side is that I sent an emal to Pioneer who immediately told me to return the camera to them. They turned around and sent me a brand new camera and all the accessories. It was a great service experience. The new camera has not frozen once.

Comments about SeaLife SL325 ReefMaster Mini Pro Set:
This is a good product for the casual photographer. Digital is a great feature. Little annoying to have to attach the wide angle lens in the water and keep track of it with it's tiny lanyard, but it was a good addition. Practice putting the lens on. There is a plastic flash gard that is a bit tricky to use with the lens. Some shots that were too bright, especially in shallow water shooting down at reef and sand, so the flash defuser might have been a good idea. I got some minor spots on the inside lens area even though I only opened the case in the air conditioned hotel. Not sure what I could do to avoid that but maybe wait a few hours before adding new batteries.

Good versatile camera for outdoor use

On a recent trip to Costa Rica, I took many pictures from above and below(110')the water as well as a two day white water rafting trip throught the rain forest. The camera works very well for the Casual user and you don't have to handle it with great care.
Great for beginners

The package is designed for folks like me who want it simple and functional. So far it has done just that. On my first dive, the camera froze. After the camera dried I turned off the camera by removing the batteries. I was nervous that it would continue freezing, but since the camera has worked pretty well. Not surprisingly, the pictures that are more than 6' away appear blue, but 4' away allows for good color (especially with flash). No real zoom to speak of, but still a nice toy. I am happy I bought it.
