Note 1: You can test the gasket by closing the case without the camera inside and submersing it completely in a bowl of water for a few minutes. Remove the case from the water, dry off the exterior with a towel, and then open the case carefully. If the interior is dry, the camera and case will be safe for use under water.

FAQ
Windows media player cannot play the recorded video files?
How many minutes of video can I record to my SD card?
How long does a full charge take and how long will it last?
How many meters deep can I use the waterproof case in water?
Try installing a CODEC pack, otherwise we find most customers have better luck with VLC Player.
In 720p mode, each minute will record up to 50MB of data. So a 4GB card will store up to 80 minutes and a 16GB card up to 320 minutes.
A full charge can take up to 4 hours and will record up to 90 minutes of video, depending on your settings and situation e.g. time of day and detail of image.
The waterproof case can safely go down to 30 meters in depth.
