okay shots on 'auto' outdoors, but set your ISO indoors

by  rdeschene,   Feb 9, 2008

Pros:  - waterproof/shockproof design - automatic lens cover - fairly compact

Cons:  white balance poor, especially indoors grainy at higher ISO expensive for the picture quality

Overall Rating: 2/5 stars
 

Author's Review

Have had this camera for a few weeks and taken indoor pictures, and some outdoor winter pictures. Wanted ONE camera that was rugged enough for outdoors but also for indoor portraits for newsletters and glossy mags.

Indoors, you're best to set its ISO manually to 400 or less otherwise shots will look grainy and/or washed out. Outdoors in the winter, the auto setting does an okay job from what I've seen so far. Color accuracy is okay but not great. As a digital camera it is just adequate, but at least as good as any other "rugged" digital camera I've seen.

There's no reason a rugged design can't produce better image quality than this.
