Not a good value
3/5 stars
Overall, I'd give this product 3 stars. It's fine for taking quick snapshots and great for traveling since it's waterproof and shockproof. The video doesn't work well. You can't zoom while shooting video. And the user manual is mediocre at best. There is no troubleshooting section in the manual or online. The battery doesn't last more than an hour, so it's not great for all-day outings. Easy to upload pictures to computer. Pros: Easy to take photos, Shockproof, Waterproof Cons: Can't zoom while shooting video, Improve user manual, Battery life is quite short
