Key Features
  • 8 Mega-pixel

With the Sealife DC800 8 mega-pixel digital camera you can take photographs as you explore the ocean world both above and below the water. This easy to use camera is good to depths of up to 200' (60 m). Of course it is also ideal for taking worry-free pictures in the rain, at the beach, or on the ski slopes.

The camera features a large 2.7" LCD screen. This allows precise framing underwater. When shooting underwater without flash the camera has three underwater white balance "Sea Mode" settings. One is for blue ocean water. The second is for green ocean water and the last is for fresh water. With the Spy mode feature you can set the camera to automatically take photos in ten seconds, thirty seconds, one minute, or five minute intervals. By setting this up on a tripod and swimming away you can photograph very shy creatures.

The camera housing allows access to all camera functions underwater. The sure fire flash connection system holds your fiber optic cable in the perfect position so the flash will fire every time. The camera is part of a system that will nurture your creativity and allow expansion of your underwater photography skills.
