YES!!!! I use it to film my granddaughters swimming lessons. Great underwater shots. Plus you can take stills form the film, I love that part. I know it has a camera but for me picking from the video was perfect. ok ADDING TO MY REVIEW! AFTER TWO USES IT WILL NOT RECHARGE!!!!!!!

We used this in our pool, never deeper than 5 ft under water. The camera functions locked-up and stopped working after a few uses. In my opinion, it's not a reliable product.

It takes great pictures underwater and even videos with sound underwater. It's only rated for up to three feet underwater but I've been very pleased with this product!

Yes, I took video of my grand daughter's youth pagent. Using zoom, about 45 feet from the stage, I was delighted with the performance of this camera. Is it a video camera - no. But it does a very respectable job AND the audio came through loud and clear, with no external microphone. I'm satisfied. By the way, it's great as a still camera.

I think so - we bought it for some wet excursions on a cruise we took, and wound up taking almost all our pictures with it. It is not much bigger than a smart phone, takes much better pictures than a phone, the removable battery charges up quick, and if you like, you can even buy a spare battery or two charged up in reserve. We would take pictures all day with it and just charge it up at the end of the day. Your daughter will love this camera. It's even a pretty color!

It should, but not sure what the video quality would be. My daughter used it in a pool for under water photos.

I used it under water but the water wasn't very clear so I wouldn't blame the camera. The playback was high def but the sounds under water are fairly garbled as you may expect so you need to mute the playback or add music. For the price in the cam market it is great.

I went spearfishing with this camera, and it was really good quality, I was in the shallow reefs so I didn't dive really deep, like 10-15 feet.

It is a float, so it should be waterproof. But I think they mean a float for a waterproof camera. The float should survive at any depth that you can reach; the cameras usually only live up to anywhere between 8 feet and 40 feet. Each camera description tells you how deep you can go.

It is pretty good even underwater, same with the video quality and it also records audio as well. I use a 32 gb external memory card so the resolution for still pictures and video were at maximum

I think there are much better cameras for the money, unless waterproof is really important to you. And at this point, if I had it to do over, I'd buy the new inexpensive go-pro model instead. I find the photos to be meh at best. And the video performance is only okay. The underwater is good, but only so useful.

Not well. The camera seems to be ideal for bright environments. I tried to capture some low-light under-water scenes and the camera recorded just black.

Camera takes good still shots in 15-20 foot range. There are bigger and better that take video.

It works quite well for a point and shoot camera in this price range. I've taken it snorkeling many times. It's better when it's sunny out and you have the right angle under water. The flash also works. But it is not an expensive, high-tech diving camera with a huge light to film National Geographic type shots or movies deep under water.

I really don't know. But we used this camera on an extended vacation and brought home some of the best underwater pictures that we have ever taken. For a point n shoot camera, it crisp, properly adjusted pics. Very easy to set up and use.

It takes photos and video and is waterproof up to 10' of water (I think). I bought it for my then 13 year old son and he took it everywhere including the beach and the pool.

Yes, it works great for taking pictures underwater. It's a bit of a pain to put it together (bring a quarter with you for the screw) but I felt for the price it was worth it rather than having to buy a separate underwater camera. You can check out the underwater pictures that I took with it:https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.4610894505961.1073741825.1100453072&type;=1&l;=3f01417080

I did some snorkeling while on vacation and the camera takes excellent photos and videos underwater, you will not be disappointed. As for the GPS, it did work while snorkeling, which was approximately 6ft underwater not sure if it will work going deeper underwater...hope this helps
