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.
