Did its job...and survived!
I wanted a digital waterproof camera for a white water rafting trip. I chose this one because it seemed the best value out there ( I did NOT want to buy a $300 camera to play underwater). On the trip, I fell out of my raft (oops!) and down 40ft. of rocky raging water waterfall... and the camera still worked!!!!! I was absolutely amazed! I admit, it does not take as nice of pictures as my canon or sony, and it IS slow to start up/in between shots...but on a scenic Wisconsin river in the middle of the day, it did exactly what I bought it for.
