For us - this camera is a rarity, one originally bought purely for use. As it needs to be sent off for processing its hardly a permanent addition to our collection - however it has enough novelty value to feature on our new Novelty & Toy Camera shelf.

We never did use this camera underwater - but it proved quite useful on the beach where normal cameras will suffer badly from sand. Here is a photo of Caroline and Benjamin on the beach at St Ives, September 2003 - taken with this camera.

However here is an excellent shot very kindly sent to us by Richard Fleming. As Richard says - it shows these cameras actually do work underwater.
