Cheap, doesn't capture colors
2008-11-13I bought this for a recent snorkeling trip. The camera itself was leak-proof and performed well under water. The photos were quite disappointing though. It did not even come close to doing justice to what we actually saw. Not a very good buy

2008-10-07great pricing and speedy service
photos did not come out very well, dark and foggy looking- not sure how much light is needed: all pictures were taken in very clear water less than 2 feet under
Execellent quality....
2008-09-25Great bang for the buck. I just got back from using these in Maui. All the snorkeling photos were wonderful. We took these to the beach so we didn't ruin our digital cameras. In and out of the water, the photos were crisp, and clear. What else can you ask for?
Great snorkeling accessory
2008-08-30I took some really good photos with this little camera. It was difficult to point and click underwater with a snorkeling mask and currents to contend with, but considering that, it performed well. I picked up pretty good color. I didn't take pictures of anything through more than a few feet of water, which is what I've heard prevents it from getting colors. It's also not for use much below the surface.
Wasn't waterproof
2008-08-10Purchased this camera for the waterpark. The first picture was crystal clear and then the remaining pictures were all cloudy and some were barely visable. For a waterproof camera, I felt it wasn't waterproof at all and it wasn't worth the amount I spent on the camera and processing. I wouldn't recommend it.

Camera basics: shutter-speed, aperture and ISO
In this article, I’ll introduce you to the basic elements that you can use to control exposure in your shooting. If you have a digital SLR, there will be a way to set all of these controls on your camera, but since they differ between manufacturers and models, you’ll need to refer to your camera’s manual to find out exactly how to change them.
All cameras, whether an ancient film camera, or a more modern digital, work in pretty much the same way. Photographs are taken by letting light fall onto a light-sensitive medium, which records the image. Traditionally, this has been film, but more recently, it tends to be a digital sensor. The more light that falls onto the film or sensor, the lighter the image.
Put simply, a camera consists of a light-tight box that stores a light-sensitive device (either a film or a digital sensor), a lens that magnifies and focuses the image onto that light-sensitive device through a hole in the box (called the aperture) , and a shutter that opens ...
Core 2 Duo Scaling

Intel's Core 2 Duo is easily the best mobile processor on the market today, boasting sky-high performance and low power consumption. But which CPU is for you: the super expensive T7600, the bargain-priced T5500, or something in between?
This article will first take a look at the various versions of Core 2 Duo that Intel has to offer. We will compare Core 2 Duo clocked at four speed grades: 2.33GHz, 2.16GHz, 2GHz, and 1.83GHz in a variety of benchmarks and let you know how to get your best bang for the buck.
Note: We will refer to a Core 2 Duo “T7000�multiple times in this article. We were unable to get a Merom sample with 2MB L2 cache, thus we lowered the clock speed of our 4MB L2 model to 1.83GHz to perform near that of the T5600 (1.83GHz, 2MB L2 cache), resulting in our unofficial “T7000�nomenclature.
The Core 2 Duo Processor
Intel has two lines of Core 2 Duo processors: notebook and desktop. Core 2 Duo for notebooks is codenamed Merom, while Core ...
