Given the integration of the smart device with camera technology, there have been a lot of interesting takes on redesigning the camera to distinguish itself from its multi-purpose technology cousin.
Our friends at SeaLife have released its newest line of Underwater capturing technology that will take you places your smart phone is scared to consider going.
The SeaLife Micro 2.0 is a Rubber-Armored, Shock-Resistant underwater camera that is waterproof up to 200 feet. In addition to a new SONY® 16MP CMOS image sensor for sharp stills and video, the SeaLife Micro 2.0 features a revolutionary 130° wide angle fish-eye lens with full 1080p HD at 60fps or 1296p at 30fps image quality. What I love about this camera are its time lapse shooting and upside down shooting modes which distinguishes it from much of the players in this space.
The SeaLife Micro 2.0 camera has a downloadable free SeaLife Micro Cam app that is compatible with iOS and Android devices. The app allows users to transfer video and images seamlessly through a wireless connection from the camera to your smart device. Although you can still transfer images through traditional USB cable or SD card, users now have the option of sharing their experiences instantaneously from land or 200 feet below via the magic of WiFi.
Whether you are a serious scuba diver or an occasional under the sea tourist this camera is perfect for you. I love the quality and unique features of the SeaLife Micro 2.0, I can’t wait to get my hands one one.
