is the camera waterproof?

My understanding is that it is not: however, they do provide the water resistant case. I have not tried it when actually raining and did notice that the camera got hot when it was on. I'd recommend calling them directly if you can get through.

The camera itself isn't. But it comes with a rubber case, which makes it good to go in the rain. But you still can't submerge it.I sold my Tachyon to a friend and bought a $299 GoPro. In its case it's waterproof down to 141'.

Are you asking if the camera only works underwater? Then no, it works underwater, at the beach, in the house...Just like a normal camera, just waterproof.

I bought the Overboard because I'd had a camera ruined when wind swamped my canoe. When I received the Overboard, I put that camera (a couple of months later) into it and ran a sink full of water. I submerged the Overboard and left it there for an hour or so. When I took the camera out of the case at the end of its soak, it was perfectly dry. That doesn't mean it's waterproof, for example, if you took it skin diving. I do think, though, that it would protect your camera from something like an accidental drop in the lake, retrieved fairly quickly.

My camera is completely waterproof. I have 3 small children and that is the best test for shock and under water. Over a year now and it is as sturdy as can be. Don't expect very high quality pics but for normal use is very good. And fun...

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

With the waterproof housing it is waterproof. Ive made spearfishing videos with this camera.

Loralai - no, it is not waterproof. I am quite happy with the camera, however.

No! Not weather proof. READ their manual: Although the cameras are water resistant they are not waterproof. Cameras are intended for use in direct exposure to water, rainor snow. http://www.svat.com/downloads/manuals/CV301-8CH-008-manual.pdf

The camera itself is not waterproof, but its case is. So as long as you have it in its case, then yes it is totally waterproof. Has it gotten wet without its case? Ya I've accidentally splashed it a time or two, if that happens I immediately turn it off and check to make sure I didn't get the internal parts wet. So try not to get water on it when its outside its case. I've taken it free diving in its case to depths deeper than 60 feet and, it can go down about 200 feet.

I wouldn't recommend that. I went less than ten feet in water and it ruined the camera. Fortunately I was just within warranty and it was repaired for a small fee but I haven't tried it in water since.

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

Kim, the short answer is yes. This is a great waterproof camera and truly unbeatable at its price point. I do not think you will be disappointed with it.

This camera is not waterproof and is not designed to withstand extreme conditions.

Unfortunately I was unable to find anything in the paperwork stating it is waterproof. The camera comes with a waterproof case that has buttons for operation, and the remote is definitely water resistant if not waterproof, it would not be effected by rain but I am not sure if it is submersible.
