Yepp - that's the one I got. Amazon had it for around $127. I bought an 8gb memory card to go w/ it, too, and I think it holds a little over 2 hours worth of footage.

Isn't it great having an underwater camera?! But for some reason, I still feel weird putting it underwater

YES! I was sooo scared to take it into the water! haha! Even though that's what it's for, it's like your brain is taught to be so careful with electronics near the water, haha.

Thanks for all the comments

Both, I believe. I got Jackson's at Petsmart and he's a Small. I think it was around $17-$18.

Loooveee it! It's gonna be so great for vacations, etc, not to worry about it getting wet or anything.

$127 on amazon. Best Buy had it for like $150 or more, I think.

Is it just a video camera? Or can you take still photos with it too?

[pookiebear]

I love that video, lifejacket, dog, and camera! Love it all! We have a pool and my Bella loves to get in and swim, but I worry because her hair must weigh a ton! Does the lifejacket seem to make them enjoy it more? Bella is still a little afraid. I think I'm going to have to get her a lifejacket. thank you so much for sharing that with us!

Jackson is such a great swimmer. Is there anything that he CAN'T do? He is so fun to watch.

Good deal, I paid $150 before price went down. The only thing I don't like about this mini-video camera is no zoom. So you def have to be close. Perfect for taking to the beach, snorkeling and surfing, and can go 10'deep. Still haven't read the book, so have a bit to learn.

I'm used to more expensive underwater cameras, or housings, and this is quite different. Amazing they can make this not leak. I need to look into a floatation thingy for it so it won't end up on the bottom of the ocean.

Jackson loves the water! Cooper would kill to go in a pool like that. Could you imagine a great big yorkie pool party?

[Darlene68]

Well that put a smile on my face! Jackson is so cool, and a great swimmer too!

[Lilacss]

Now that is cool. Love the underwater shots and he sure looks like he is having fun!

You can take 5MP still photos, but they're no better quality than a cell phone.

Really... mine zooms? Not very much, granted, but it does zoom maybe like 4xish and it doesn't get too blurry or shaky. I agree though - it's a great little camera for the beach, etc and not worry about it breaking.

Jackson is. The Man.

So cute!!! Great swimmer! Put Kasha in for the first time last weekend :-) Camera is pretty cool too! Now you have to teach him different strokes in the water!
