Case

I instantly fell in love with it when I seen it online! I had a vivitar 5299 previously, but my carseat smashed the screen =(
I immediatly submerged the case in water and let it sit for a day for any condensation that may appear on the inside before trying out the camera under water, did not want any leaks of course. It takes excellent pics in & out of the water. I highly recommend this camera, and believe the price should be much higher for the quality of this product. I am extremely satisfied!

Great Camera!

Only has digital zoom, so if you zoom at all your image is greatly compromised. Keep that in mind.

A great little camera for the price.

My friend plans on using it only while kayaking as to not compromise her more expensive camera. A casing for her camera would have been three times the cost of this little gem.

Best used only outdoors. There is a flash, but the images aren't as good when taken inside. A great alternative to the disposable underwater options.

better than a disposable

I just got back from Cancun and used this camera in the pool and on our snorkel trip and the pictures turned out so clear and perfect. I recommend this camera to everyone and you dont have to use it underwater you can use it as a normal digital camera. Best Purchase I have ever made

Best Purchase I have ever made

This item exceeded my expectations for the price paid. Long life from 2 AAA rechargable batteries....6+ hours of on and off use with power to spare. Added 2Gb SD card for loads of pictures and movie clips. Water proof...no problem! Swam with dolphins and at coral reef at Discovery cove in Orlando. Underwater shots were very clear..most blurry photos were operator error. Would recommend to anybody

Bang for the buck

This little camera is great for taking pics in and under the water. Usually the pics are better than the tiny LCD screen is capable of showing. Focus can be a little fuzzy but generally acceptable for fun types of pics. Video is a nice quality too. It even gets sound when in it's waterproof case! The only thing I really don't like is the flash. It takes a long time to charge up for the next picture. Oh yeah, invest in some rechargeable AA batteries. You will need them

Great for the money vs a custom water proof case

I was looking for a camera to use in situations where I wouldn't bring my good camera (i.e. near water). This camera serves that purpose. Decent enough pictures to capture the moment. The waterproof case worked just fine. I think it's a great alternative to disposal waterproof cameras and more cost effective. If you're looking for great quality pictures, you'll have to spend more money on a better camera. But, for the price, this camera's a good buy.

Good for the price

At around $56 and being 5 mega pixels, I had real doubts about this purchase, but at that price I took a gamble and find the little ViviCam to be a very good value. Is it the best or a high quality digital Cam, no it isn't. Will it do as it is advertised, yeah, pretty good. I was actually amazed all that comes with it. The waterproof case is waterproof, tested mine in a bucket, and it didn't leak. I really like the pouch you can slip the camera into and wear it on your belt, very handy on motorcycle rides. Fresh batteries (probably going to switch to 2 rechargeable AAA), cables, software, wrist strap, packaged as good as any other digital cam out there. Actual usage and the controls takes a bit to get accustomed to, but worth learning. Instruction sheet is very condensed compared to other cams, but if you study it, there's a lot of info. The lens is 8x digital zoom, so I don't even use it, can crop with photo software. Be careful switching to macro, to switch back for regular photos. Cameras without a viewfinder I always have trouble aiming out in bright sunlight, otherwise nice 2" screen. Photos can come out clear, good color, and with a little finessing with a photo darkroom software, you can get a pretty good pic. Is it the best cam, no, but for what it costs and how good it can deliver, I feel its a good value. I'm hoping to use it while snorkeling and if I loose it (oh by the way, it floats in its case) by water saturation, its not a big loss. It's already performed pretty good so far. I would recommend this cam for what it is, an economical all weather or underwater to 45' with case. It's hard to beat in that price range.

NOT BAD FOR WHAT IT COSTS

The camera is sturdy and well priced because not only does it have 5 megapixels but it also comes with its own underwater case (which if bought seperately would probably cost a lot). The only bad part of it is that the buttons are kind of hard to push down and that it takes too long to turn on and wait for it to put the flash on. When you're underwater and exploring an underground river at a touristy spot, you don't really have that much time because you have people telling you to move along.

Always great to have a cheap camera like this for snorkeling and beach adventures. I paid $59 at Wal-Mart for this camera and expected it to be somewhat disposeable. My last Vivitar camera's seal leaked and fried the electronics, but this thing is watertight even at 15 feet down.
The ISO and flash are not great, but a steady hand can get decent images. The battery life is also lacking, as they were depleted in one outing. Auto color balance leaves daylight images looking purple, but manual selections are available.
I was most surprised by the great quality of the video files -- not a lot of compression and files are huge, but look pretty good. Again, for less than $120 this is a great bargain camera that gets the job done.

Unbelievable bargain! This is a steal!

This camera was purchased strickly for use as an underwater camera on our honeymoon in the Western Carribean/Mexico/South America.
The first 200 pictures taken (underwater) are not usable. Someone with the same camera mentioned that pictures come out much better in "sport" mode. Once this was done, pictures became much clearer. The final 300 pictures were much better.
The bad part is that every time you turn on the camera, you have to go in to the settings to change it to Sport mode. Sport mode also apparantly uses more battery power... so you have to change the batteries more frequently.
If Vivitar made this camera where settings were saved from one use to the next... or just made the Sport Mode their ready to use mode.... I'd recommend again. Until then.... your money is probably better spent on the disposable cameras.
I'll also note that the biggest size SD card this camera will accept is 2GB. Tried a 4GB and 8GB card and it wouldn't accept either.

You Get What You Pay For

As a serious amatuer photographer who shoots with a DSLR and various lenses my expectations were not very high to begin with.
I purchased this little cheapy for nothing more than taking it underwater in a pool because marine housings for DSLR's are expensive.
The main problem is that you cannot SEE the LCD screen outside in the sun or underwater AT ALL, and since this little point and shoot has no eyepiece you are dependent on using the screen to frame the shot. It's pretty much useless outside/underwater.
Image quality is what you would expect for a camera that interpolates..horrible at it's fake 5 megapixels. I suggest dialing down the megapixel count to 3 or 1....you'll get less jpeg artifacts, noise, and distortion that way.
Another problem here is that it does not use consecutive numbering of the photos...so with each use you need to create a new folder to store the images in. If you shoot 1-10 today, and clear the camera instead of starting with 11 next time, you'll be back at one again.
Battery life- eats them like crazy.
It does NOT remember settings. When I set the EV value to try to get a better exposure and turn the camera off it goes back to default settings. For everything.
The only thing I can say good is that I'm having fun with it's limited video capability. Not good quality and very short but good enough to post on a website or viewing on a monitor.
I will keep trying to get underwater shots in the pool, but I'll be shooting blind hoping the get the shot since I can see nothing on this screen outside in the sun.
If you want a cheap camera for a smell child like a pre-schooler or if you want to just shoot some short video with sound for e-mailing or posting on a website then consider this, otherwise look for something better.
If you are looking for something to use underwater you may be better off with one of those one time use underwater cameras that use film....at least those let you put the camera to your eye.
