what is the depth you can take this camera underwater?

This camera is a piece of crap. I don't think it's designed to go under water for diving.

Took it to Hawaii. Took it to bout 20ft. Of course pictures were better when closer to surface but it worked well for the price. Not sure what depth it is rated.

Don't know what it is rated for...we had it about 20' in salt water and the pictures were beautiful.

Yes you can take pictures under water as well as video i use the video a lot when i deep sea dive i love it make sure to get the floating wrist strap so you dont drop your camera to the bottom of the sea i

Nope, never used it underwater to take pictures. However, I have had it in very bad wet raining weather and it has held up fine. Your question could probably be answered best my the manufacturer. So far, for what I do with it, hunting in wet climates, works great for the price.EH

You should be able to go to 18 meters. However, at 10 meters the camera started to fail, and once above water I found water droplets inside the battery/sim card compartment. I would not plan on using this camera for anything more than in the rain, on a kayak or water sport with a floatie attached, and at the most snorkeling, so no more than 1 meter. It's not worth the risk to ruin the camera

It is water and weather resistant, not meant to be submerged for underwater use. Pentax also carries a waterproof line of cameras, the WG line

I believe that the camera can be used under water, BUT it has to be in a waterproof case. I am not sure how this "feature" makes it different from any other camera, but that is my understanding

The camera isn't waterproof. I think it's if you purchase one of those underwater cases.

Not sure about using this underwater, you should call samsung and ask if they have waterproof casing and ask up to what depth the camera will function. This camera will function up to 20-30F in cold weather, my other canon wont work in these cold temps.

Hi,Thank you for your question. Yes, videos and pictures can be taken underwater with this case.

As with other digital cameras I have owned, I will get an extra battery (just be careful with off-brand models) and a memory card. I will be using this one to go deeper than 12m/40ft underwater, and plan to get the Ikelite housing that is good to 40m/200ft.

I don't believe this camera is really a "dive" camera, it's more of a snorkeling/pool camera. It's only rated to 49' which as you mention isn't really scuba depth. Nikon shows the camera being used this way but really it's not up to anything but shallow dives. I have used it extensively snorkleing & in the pool. Max depth I've tested is 12', worked fine.

Underwater, I don't know but on land should be fine if you are not jumping around and shake it off and depending on how heavy your camera.

I only used the camera for snorkling, 3 to 4 feet. It did very well at that depth. The specs say it is only good to 10 feet.

We have never tried to take it deeper than 45 feet, we haven't tried to take pictures underwater with it. However the pictures we have taken are very good.

Not if you plan on going deeper than a foot or two. I took mine down about 10 ft and the camera was ruined. GoPro or camera with a diving housing is the way to go.

Personally, I got it in a river to a depth of a meter or so. Just took a dip after rafting :-) According to the following URL, it can be underwater "to a depth of 197' (60 m)": http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/887139-REG/Sony_hdras15_b_HDR_AS15_HD_Action_Camcorder.html
