SeaLife SL321 ECOshot Shock Resistant Digital Sports Camera is Built to Survive

SeaLife, a company known for its range of underwater cameras, have just
released their SL321 ECOshot Sports Digital Camera that is as happy on
land as it is in water and which has been designed from the outset to
survive more than its fair share of knocks and scrapes.

Ideal for those looking for a digital camera that can accompany them
anywhere, Sealife's ECOshot Sports Digital Camera is a seriously tough
cookie. Not only can it survive emersion to depths of 75 feet (23
meters), making it ideal for scuba divers looking to capture the
highlights of their dives, but it can also survive impacts equivalent to
the device being dropped from a height of 6ft onto solid, unforgiving
surfaces.

Unequivocally as at home on terra firma as it is in the water, the
ECOshot is not only built to endure but it has some particularly handy
functions crammed into its rubber armoured shell such as a feature
called SPY mode, which will automatically capture a series of imagery at
set time intervals - which, for example, is great for leaving the camera
in a particular location (either on land or in water) to capture
wildlife that would otherwise remain elusive in your presence.


Sporting a 6 mega pixel CCD sensor, the ECOshot, which is powered by two
AA batteries, comes with a 2'� colour LCD TFT display, an integral flash
with land and water based flash photography modes, an array of land and
sea exposure/ focus range settings, 4X digital zoom and video capture
capabilities offering 24fps at (an admittedly somewhat uninspiring) 320
x 240 resolution. And, incidentally, it will also serve as a webcam.

It's impressive stuff, certainly, though, having crammed in such a broad
range of features into the device we cannot help but wonder why the
ECOshot is supplied with a meagre 14MB on onboard memory - which,
thankfully, can be supplemented with use of an SD card.

Designed for the outdoor types amongst you, from surfers to
snowboarders, scuba divers to hikers, the SeaLife ECOshot Sports Digital
Camera retails for around $230.
