Purpose: To video swimmers underwater for instruction.
I have purchased a Panasonic DMC tS2 and think who ever designed the logic of the buttons must be of another species. The video jerks when there zooming when watching. (might be a frames per second thing) and makes a mechanical noise. I'd like to have a camera that: 1) I can put a polarizer filter on to cut surface glare. 2) Easy to use. 3) waterproof 4) Can drop on deck.
I'd like to hear what you are using and what you think. thanks!
I have the TS2 and absolutely hate the user interface. Want to buy a used one cheap? I just want to turn it on and zoom in and out with non of all those other buttons.
I think something like the Kodak Playsport might be better for you. For my purposes I'll probably take photos much more than I'll shoot video and I have lots of experience with the interface on Panasonic cameras.
Not sure on buying your used TS2. I have a feeling I'll be able to get a brand new TS2 for pretty cheap once the TS3 goes on sale!
