 VuPoint is a Cell Phone Camera in Disguise December 20, 2008
Angel_Pen
The VuPoint reviews are misleading, The VuPoint Camera is just a cheap cell phone camera disguised as an underwater camera, and it is not even a good camera at all. If you don't believe me just take a good look at the camera lens and you will notice that it looks exactly like you phone camera lens. Actually, any cell phone currently in the market can take better pictures than this VuPoint. I returned it before I had a chance test the waterproof case, but the case looked flimsy and the locking mechanism does not have a secure lock, it may open accidentally underwater. Also this camera wins the price as the electronic device with the most fake reviews I have ever seen on Amazon. You have been warned.
 OK for cheap camera December 16, 2008

This is exactly like the camera I got that sported the 'Vivitar' brand, as far as I can tell. Please let me know if this is not correct.
I wish I could get more excited about this product, but even though it performed well underwater, my photos were lost because I tried to follow the instructions. The instructions told me to go to the format menu, and so I did and zapped my once-in-a-lifetime photos. I otherwise like this camera, I carry it with me everywhere, every day because it is very, very small and light. Any camera (from other brands) that looks like this one, including
INTOVA INWD-IC600 6.0 Megapixel Digital Camera with Waterproof Housing -180FT
SVP Acqua DC-1231Bk 12MP Max. Digital Still Camera with waterproof case (2GB High Speed SD Card & Tripod Included)
is probably the exact same device so don't be fooled by claims of 12 Megapixels from other cameras.
We got it for snorkeling in the Bahamas and did not want to risk any loss or damage to our regular cameras. I am glad we did that. Get some VERY long-life alkaline AAA batteries and a 2GB SD card to go with this product so that you will able to take a lot of photos or videos without having to re-surface.
The waterproof case has a lot of buttons on the back so that you can navigate the camera's controls just as well without the case. When the distance switch on the side is on `flower' the focus is at about a foot or less.
This is a SMALL camera and is about the size of larger cigarette box. Be careful with reading the instructions and practice with it (a lot) before you get in the water. Please, please read the instructions for the waterproof case before you try and put the camera in it and use it. The latch may not operate the way you expect and you might damage it!

Image quality is HORRIBLE, My cell phone takes better images.
Returning it because when I turn the flash on the camera shuts down.
Very unhappy

I was pleased with the whole process of this purchase. Billing went smoothly. I received my camera sooner than I was originally told. The item came well packaged. We took this camera to the Caribbean to use on snorkeling adventures. This camera took as good a picture as did a more expensive Olympus camera we also used. I was pleased with this purchase.
Amazing!! September 5, 2008

I bought this camera for a trip to Cancun. I wanted to do Scuba Diving and I brought this along. This camera package is probably the best underwater camera package for under $100. The pictures came out clear. The camera also has video capability with sound. Great buy!!
