SeaLife’s NEW DC 1200

SeaLife’s NEW DC 1200 Underwater Camera Redefines Simplicity
MOORESTOWN, N.J. – One outstanding feature of SeaLife’s new 12 megapixel dive camera is its simplicity. In the past, the diver or snorkeler had to take the hand off the camera and shutter in order to operate the zoom or the button cluster on the back of the camera. Now, as a first among underwater cameras, the new SeaLife DC1200 eliminates the typical button cluster on the back of the camera in favor of five easy thumb-operated “Piano Keys”. Simplifying the operation even more, the large shutter button extends forward with a fingertip-control lever that allows scrolling through menus or zooming in and out without releasing your grip from the camera. This “Central Command Lever” and the “Piano Keys” are making great underwater pictures and videos easier than ever before.
The DC1200 includes four specially designed underwater modes making it possible for anyone to take sharp, colorful underwater pictures in any setting. Just in case you forget which underwater mode to choose, SeaLife includes an Easy Set-up mode - a graphic on-screen guide that takes the guess work out of setting up the camera for great pictures on land or underwater.
The camera functions just as effectively top-side as it does underwater by easily removing the slim inner camera from its waterproof housing. The 12-megapixel camera includes 5x optical zoom, auto-focus to 4 inches (10 cm) and features a video mode for shooting continuous, high-resolution digital videos with sound. Its large 3 inch LCD allows perfect framing and easy on-camera viewing.
