PIXPRO WPZ2 Digital Camera, Blue

This is a very competent 'tough' zoom camera at a very good price ( £158 on Amazon ) It's rugged dustproof, sand proof, shockproof & waterproof down to 50 metres ( 165 ft ) and will fit into a jacket pocket. I have used it in teeming rain, swimming pools, seawater and of course on the beach - all with no problem. It has a built-in flash, optical zoom lens [ wide angle to short telephoto ], wi-fi, numerous scene modes including underwater. Also present are the usual shooting choices including Auto, Programme, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, Manual & Panorama. Video can be shot in full HD. The viewing screen is bright, clear and easy to use both above and under water. It also performs very well as a general use camera for snapping everything from family groups to scenic views. The 4 x optical zoom lens copes well with both very bright and low light. Using the built in flash you can shoot in very poor light or use it to ' fill in ' and even out the amount of light needed for any picture. Does it really work under water - yes it does, though fifteen feet is the lowest I have ever taken it. Is it worth the money - yes, for use both as a specialist camera and as one for all general photographic uses. Is it fun - definitely!

I bought this to take on holiday in a few weeks I damaged one of my DSLR lens last year as sand got into it and I wanted to do some underwater photography. I wasn't expecting much and thought I would end up sending it back due to low quality images, turns out I was wrong. I have tested it my local area and got some very good pictures. The manual mode was bonus I got some good waterfall shots. I shall be keeping and I am looking forward to taking it in the sea. The video quality is also very good. The only minor annoyance is the timer resets itself after each shot. The app you can download and put on your phone is not very good, it keeps loosing connection so I won't be using that. Overall very impressed. Update 9/10/2024 I took this camera on holiday to Croatia and got some great pictures. It mean't did not have carry my DSLR and I got some good underwater shots when I went snorkelling. A very, very good camera.

Bought for my 8 year old. She loves it. Does everything she needs it to do and I'd durable.

I have used this for the past 10 days on a beach holiday with quite a bit of snorkelling. The camera is easy to use and has taken good quality images for its price and size. The scene modes produce good images the attached images were in underwater mode and sunset mode and auto mode. I have not taken my proper camera out of its case so far, this more more than upto the job for my needs. The Wi-Fi link has been great, no issues in connecting to my ipad and staying connected. I have been down loading over 100 images and movies at a time. The Wi-Fi option means I can down load images by the pool/ beach without using a card reader. When snorkelling you can still see the image on the screen so you have a decent idea of what you will get. Battery life seems okay I have it on when snorkelling so it’s ready when I need it , hard to quantify how long it’s on as a result but it’s not let me down so .

Out of the water is takes an OK picture. Underwater it cannot cope with moving objects so out of many photos only a couple are any good at all (fish). Humans posing underwater should work. I once had the more expensive Olympus which was way better. Sadly, I could find the Olympus at a sensible price and available.

Bought this for my Greek holiday. I was a little worried, especially for this price. BUT this camera is amazing. Easy to use, small light weight and takes great pictures in and out of the water. Battery life is also excellent. 10 put if 10. Great product

I take this camera with me everywhere I go, I love how small and compact this is! It's got tons of filters so I like being to mess around with the settings. The flash is super bright and the battery lasts quite a while, I went to a bowling event and was continuously taking pictures of everyone and it lasted around 2-3 hours before needed a charge.

This camera looks nice. That's the only positive I can say. . Everything is bad; from the useless quality lcd screen to the limited interface options, highly limited camera settings and awful image quality. This is essentially a nice looking waterproof camera that has the equivelant of twenty year old budget camera quality and is thus unusable. I did not.evem get to the point of testing it underwater because the camera tech is so dated. As a novelty camera for a child it might be ok, but even then it's longevity will be limited because of the woefully dated camera tech. For anyone else, don't. Just don't.

Worth for this price.

raw photos, best cam imo

الكاميرا تجنن وجودتها رهيبه وسهله بالاستخدام ولكن واجهتني مشكله بالفلاش وطلبت استرجاع للكاميرا وانتظر ردهم .

Mir ist bewusst, dass viele diese Kamera als Alternative für den großen Action-Kamera-Hersteller mit den 5 Buchstaben in Betracht ziehen - das trifft allerdings nicht auf mich zu: ich war auf der Suche nach einer Kamera als Geschenk für meinen 9-jährigen Sohn, da dieser, erfreulicherweise, an meinem eigenen Hobby - der Fotografie - Gefallen gefunden hat. Es gibt KEINE andere Kinderkamera, die auch nur annähernd so viele Plus-Punkte wie diese hat: - stoßfest (hält also auch mal den einen oder anderen Fall auf den Parkett-Boden stand) - optisch ansprechend mit (für neugierige Kinderhände) vielen Einstellmöglichkeiten - wasserdicht (im Pool getestet) - super! - gute Akkulaufzeit (das vorher aufgenommene Video kann SEHR oft am Kamera-Display angesehen werden!) - bezahlbar ist und kein Riesendrama im Familienbudget darstellt, wenn die Kamera doch mal verloren geht - für mich wichtig: sogar noch eine einigermaßen gute Bildqualität hat Natürlich kein Vergleich mit einer Kamera aus dem gehobeneren Segment (Sony, Fuji, Canon, Nikon, etc.) - aber durchaus vergleichbar mit Kompaktkameras eben dieser Hersteller von vor 4-5 Jahren. Somit absolut ausreichend für Kinder, die in das sehr schöne Hobby der Fotografie hinein wachsen möchten. Vollste Empfehlung!

Looks good. Compact. Easy to carry around. Can run on WIFI. The app is amazing. Picture quality if good. Can zoom. Can do alot of stuff on app like video projection while recording. Have yet to try under water. Affordable pricing.
