Same camera at The Good Guys still $154 web price. $100 is a good price to me for a waterproof camera.
Joondalup and Bunbury are both showing as "limited" stock (call to confirm) at 7:30am Monday
Out of stock in SE Bris, pity - it is a good price for waterproof.
Target had the red one cleared out at $40. Not sure if any stores have stock left.
Tried to order home delivery but out of stock :(
Product OLTG320BU cannot be back ordered
Oh really, there's stock in store in Burwood, NSW 5 hours ago, but out of stock now. Punchbowl has limited stock.
Anyone had any luck in Melbourne?
Now to find a reason (or a place) to use the freeze proof feature…
snow?
Price match at ..Oh wait, nevermind.
Piece of s camera get something else
Bought one lasted 48 hours in the house then screen died before even took in snow of water
Then got replacement and it was DOA
Another replacement lasted 2 weeks before flash stopped
Don't waste your valuable time with this model
Thanks, its always nice to get useful feedback on here :)
I'd recommend a GoPro Hero3. Might be a bit pricier, but those suckers LAST.
the reliability issues on the go pro hero 3 black are a whole other issue!
Last is a strong word, my hero black is currently back in California being fixed/replaced due to a faulty wifi module… In saying that the GoPro support is one of the best (except for being USA based) that I have ever had to deal with.
These Olympus tough cameras are brilliant for around the house, at parties or for kids so you don't have to stress about them breaking the good camera :)
2nd this!
Mine made a bit further though. One water use and the water got through the seals in the battery hood and it was over
My experience has been different I've had one for over a year now. Has been properly used and abused: dropped a few times, underwater to 10m repeatedly etc
It's a bargain for $100.
Edit: that should have said 10ft down
Couldnt find any in Melbourne this morning, managed to get harvey to price match one of there last remaining demo stock.
For $100 it will do nice for my trip to Great barrier Reef this week.
I have owned one for 7 months. I also have a GoPro 3 Black, this is a lot easier to use than a GoPro. It has seen plenty of underwater and snow use with 0 problems plus it takes great panoramas. Would definitely recommend this point-and-click camera.
Make sure u service the camera every six months it is in olympus warranty. It free for the first year but you have to pay for postage. If don't the seals will degrade and water will enter the camera.
If you're in SA (marion) they apparently have the Sony Dsctx20 for $70….. I have a tx5 and it's been brilliant…. I've done underwater photography for a number of years and am anal about keeping the seals clean of dust/hair etc and it's never had an issue.
No stock in Perth. The 1 store in Perth showing 'low' (Morley), has 1 showing in the inventory, but no one is sure where it physically is.
