Review on Nikon COOLPIX AW110 Wi-Fi And Waterproof Digital Camera With GPS (Camouflage) (OLD MODEL) by Zachary Ester

Ripped Test Best in Cameras

These photos and videos were amazing. Ground and underwater images were recorded in the same quality. The Auto function did a great job of accurately assessing conditions and automatically switching to landscape, underwater and macro photography. The GPS function was extremely accurate. None of that matters unless it's actually waterproof. He went through my 47 minute basic dive from 47ft (max depth) and two snorkel trips. Every day it was rinsed with fresh water, opened and the seal cleaned with a cotton swab to ensure there was no debris around the seal. No problem, water leaked around the bad yellow rubber gasket (actually water pooled around the gasket and slowly seeped in by capillary action. We waited 2-3 hours after flushing to open; it didn't matter. the camera "works" still but the screen doesn't work so you can't turn on the gps, can't change the function, can't see what you're filming, can't do anything but point and click and hope you get it, what you need I bought it on October 13th to make sure I have it before my trip to Fiji on November 5th a Nikon AW 100 that has never been in the water the same thing happened but a day before, the screen is dead. we also had an olympus hard 8010 which put me through hell for two weeks, blackwater kayaking, caving, drops, bumps etc) and it still works like chattr. The picture quality of the Olympus is noticeably worse and it doesn't have a GPS function, but at least it works. Nikon has serious problems with the design of these cameras. We will try to replace it or find a way to get our money back.
