Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The SeaLife ReefMaster Pro set includes a SeaLife ReefMaster RC camera and an array of accessories developed by divers for divers. The camera offers automatic operations and point-and-shoot ease while handling depths up to 164 feet. The large shutter lever requires only light pressure, even at major depths. The SeaLife ReefMaster RC eliminates the need to focus by using a fixed focus to take pictures from 4 feet to infinity. The SeaLife ReefMaster RC can also take shots on land. It uses standard 35mm film and AA batteries. Other features include a built-in flash--but a more powerful external flash comes with the Pro accessory pack. The external flash is fully automatic and reduces backscatter.

The soft deluxe padded carrying case offers an adjustable shoulder strap and will keep your camera well organized and protected. The kit also includes a SeaLife macro 3x close-up lens/underwater filter, a SeaLife care kit, SeaLife Moisture Muncher antifog desiccant, the SeaLife color booklet Great Pictures Made Easy, and a user's guide for the external flash unit.

Great camera as far as point and shoot goes. Although you can save money buy direct from SeaLife.

....over the Canon Elph. It works at a greater depth. This makes it more versatile at only a slightly higher cost.

However, the "Pro set" is [no bargain]. Just buy the camera instead.

Length:: 4:56 Mins

I purchased my first underwater camera when I was just 12 years old. At the time, the only one available that didn't cost a minimum of $2K was the Canon Aqua Snappy. It worked quite well for many years, but eventually wore out.

The SeaLife Reefmaster is the camera I replaced it with. I didn't get the Pro set, but I later got most of the accessories that are in the Pro kit, including three macro lenses. I would recommend this camera for anyone ho can't afford the higher priced digital models. The photos are clear and crisp, the flash filter does a fairly good job at restoring yellows and reds to the images, and there is a good array of accessories for it, including macro lenses and strobes.

With all underwater film photography there is a significant amount of intuition and luck involved in taking good photographs. However, the attachable underwater viewfinder for the SeaLife Reefmaster does a pretty decent job at lining up the subject well.

This camera is durable and easy to use, and the perfect starter camera for someone interested in underwater photography. One of these days, I will be upgrading to a digital underwater camera, and when I do, you'd better believe I'll be looking toward SeaLife in my top picks.
