Great Camera!

Great underwater camera. New to underwater photography but the pictures so far have come out great. Housing is great and simple to operate underwater.

Excellent new camera, with a difficult learning curve.

Great new underwater and land camera, the internal camera is light, powerful, and very takes very sharp auto focus pics. The only slightly negative issue is the complicated menu driven software that is not consistent from one operation to the next. Oh if Apple had helped in the design. It could be intuitive, but sadly is not.

Great Upgrade to My DC1200 Camera

The DC 2000 camera is an extremely nice camera with many new features. I ordered it to replace my DC1200 camera that was flooded and ruined on my last dive trip. The 2000 has a very nice feature that the camera itself is sealed and rated to be water-tight to 60 ft, so that if the housing leaks, the camera will still be protected. I haven't used it in the water yet but I expect it to be great. The advertising info isn't clear about the battery charger and the Leisure Pro consultants didn't seem to understand it. Anyway, there is a battery charger cord and plug-in (called a wall charger) that will charge a battery installed in the camera and the cord plugged into the camera. The one disappointment with the camera is that for land use, the zoom feature isn't available. This is where you need it the most. All in all, it seems to be an awesome camera.

Great camera in and out of the housing!

Great camera and setup. The camera itself is waterproof to 60' and drop resistant, add the housing to it and the camera can go 200'. Takes some great shots above and below the water. Definitely worth the money!

small camera-big results

one of the easiest cameras ever! compact, yet powerful. pictures are excellent. requires no housing for shallow dives. price is very reasonable. In fact we bought two of them and ditched our more expensive cannon and the smaller gopro.

Very nice camera

Rented the Micro 2.0 and wanted the features of the big brother so I got this. Easy to use, great pictures, glad I bought it. 3 flaws. 1) Lanyard ring on the case doesn't fit anything but the lens cap. Only the internal camera works with the lanyards, so what's the point? 2) A $700 camera doesn't come with a charger. Really? You have to plug the sync USB in to charge it. 3) The large air gap between the inner camera screen and housing glass means you have to be directly behind the housing to see what you're filming, and if there is any glare you can't see anything. Other than that, great camera.

Great camera for underwater or regular photogrophy

Bought this for my son and with a few pictures, the detail is fantastic. With this high definition video and pictures, it would be recommended to take a class on photography so all the great features can be used to their full capacity. This is almost like having my professional Pintax under water. From what Ive seen so far, I'm impressed and do not regret the price tag. It is worth the value.

Wow...What a game changer.

Haven'tI upgraded from the DC1200. What a difference. This camera is AWSOME. Underwater pictures are remarkable. I just got it before 4 dives in south Florida. My rig uses the Sea Dragon SL963 flash, Sea Dragon 2000 LED Video light, and I also upgraded to the SL963 Fisheye lens. This combo is easy to use, easy to carry with a good underwater strap, and pretty light weight. So much to learn with the new Camera yet, but my first sets of pictures are VERY detailed. You now have many more options for "capture" than before. Redesigned waterproof case allows full control of all functions underwater. Zoom works very well also. Several storage formats, including raw. Camera itself is waterproof to 60 feet, but housing protects it and gives you a second waterproof seal. All functions worked very well with 3mil gloves. There are bigger and better cameras out there, but the new 2000 will match the quality of the pictures. Still learning about the video functions. Haven't figured out auto focus yet. The videos that did work are amazing. The colors and movements of the fish were enhanced by the video light. Crystal clear videos. Saved pictures to Surface Pro. When you zoom in, the quality and clarity stay, because of the 20mp. Land picture quality also outstanding. many new smart programs that allow you to take awesome sunset pictures for example. This is a great up grade from the DC1200. which until now, was the best quality you could get.
