Product Information

The Intova SP880K Digital Camera is really a kit that includes the 8.0 mega-pixel SP8 Sport digital camera and underwater housing. With this kit you can take photographs as you explore the ocean world both above and below the surface. This easy to use camera in the housing is good to depths of up to 130' (39.6 m). The camera without the housing is waterproof to 30' (9.14m). In case of a housing flood your camera is still protected.

Besides being waterproof the camera is incredibly durable, combining rugged body construction with shock-absorbing materials, making it the pocket camera of choice for divers, surfers, skiers, and all sorts of adventure seekers who wish to document their experiences in pictures and video. The rugged body and shock-absorbing construction are designed to withstand a three-foot fall or other impact.

The camera incorporates a high quality 3x optical zoom lens and a capture resolution of 8 megapixels to provide beautiful images. Plus it is loaded with features to make shooting easy and fun. A selection of shooting modes built into the camera cover many common shooting situations including portraits, sports, night, landscapes, and underwater modes. Users are therefore ready to take perfect shots with a minimum of fuss and effort.

Other unique features include Face Detection which tracks faces and automatically focuses and optimizes exposure for sharp, brilliant portrait pictures. It also has Digital anti-shake that captures sharp blur-free images. The camera also features 32MB of internal built-in memory and a SD Card slot that allows you to expand the memory to over 2GB, providing enough storage capacity for hundreds of images.

The camera flash can be used to take underwater photos, but an external strobe is recommended to improve color and reduce the illumination of particles suspended in the water. The Intova Slave Strobe is the perfect flash to use with this camera. The camera housing allows access to all camera functions.
