Works for me.
( - 3/24/06)Got the DC500 as a Christmas gift. At first the camera was slow to take pictures underwater, but I found that it was due to not enough ambient light for the auto-focus to work at depth. When this happens, the reticle will not go from yellow to blue. Added a strong light to the bracket and fixed that problem. The flash worked for me, but it is slow to recharge. The camera does double duty for me as I use it on land more than in the water. I like it a lot for the compact size and ease of use both in and out of the water.
