is this camera waterproof?

I'm assuming "no" because there is nothing in the product booklet addressing that feature. I wouldn't be willing to try it out either! If you go to the Panasonic product website you can look up the description and specifications for any model they sell.

It doesn't appear to be waterproof but I haven't had a reason to find out. I definitely would not immerse it with a camera inside.

I don't know, but I wouldn't buy the camera in the first place. It claims to be waterproof, but within the first 30 seconds in the water there was water inside the screen and lens and the camera was dead.

Yes. The lens that comes with the camera is waterproof and works great. There is one other her lens that Nikon makes that is also waterproof.

Yes, it is waterproof. However, it snaps a lot of nothing shots. The battery compartment got a bunch of some type of bugs in it while out in the woods.

They are rated for outdoor use, so yes they are water-proof. My are tucked up under the eaves of the house. It's a very good camera.

The camera is not waterproof. It is water resistant. I don't know what the IP rating is.

I'm sure it is not waterproof, however the input for the rear camera is composite. I hooked up one of those license plate type rear cameras and plugged it into the dash cam and it records great.

O wish I could answer for you. We used the camera while at the beach and the camera was never underwater for that length of time. It never leaked, though.

Yes, but I'm going to change my rating on this camera. It stopped working two weeks ago. I didn't use it underwater that much, but the last time my husband used it, it stopped working. From the reviews I'm reading now, it doesn't sound like the company is willing to help out. While fun to use underwater, I will not buy another one.

Not sure about waterproof but it seemed to me to only be a camera you can connect to a video source. No recording capabilities nor online viewing

From the advanced manual: "Waterproof function of the camera is for sea water and fresh water only." Just make sure you follow the instructions for cleaning/drying afterwards. You can download the manual from the Panasonic site and look at it to see if it fulfills your needs.

No the camera is not weather proof. It can be mounted outside however would have to be protected from moisture.

The camera itself isn't but there is a water case for the camera. It muffles the sound a bit but keeps the camera dry. I used it walking in the rain and it was fine.
