I bought one, what a mistake to make! I sold my precious Oly C7070 to buy this heap of sh**. It will be going on ebay soon so don't be tempted to buy it.

Ive got a Sea and Sea 750G with wide angle lense and strobe. Very good value for money and takes great pictures. I even won my old clubs annual photo competition with it. Unfortunately I never got to defend my title due to being thrown out the club for calling the chairman a cnut.

Wouldn't dream of disagreeing with your conclusions, but it would be interesting to understand the reasoning behind them...

Cnut is saved for a very select few people imo, are you sure he wasn't just a w4nker?

I have a dx-1g and whilst it has been a steep learning curve (just by the process of using strobes and aperture/shutter setting for the first time) I am starting to get some good results. The macro is superb on it and the wide angle lens I would also recommend.

What particular problems are you getting?
