Sealife Micro 3.0 Underwater Camera
The Sealife Micro 3.0 Underwater Camera is the latest generation of this compact camera line and boasts some significant technological improvements over the Micro 2.0. As with the previous models the Micro 3.0 is designed to be simple to use and as maintenance free as possible and, to that end, the camera is permanently sealed which makes it leak-proof with no O-rings to maintain.
The Micro 3.0 uses a Sony 16MP CMOS image sensor that delivers 4K ultra-high definition video at 30fps or 1080p high definition at 120fps for slow motion footage. The camera also has rechargeable battery capable of 3+ hours of continuous video recording or over 1000 images. It also features 64gb of fixed internal memory.
The camera’s ease of use starts with the three wide Piano key type buttons that are easy to locate and control, even with dive gloves on. The intuitive Micro 3.0’s easy Setup feature quickly guides you through the correct settings based on the shooting environment, depth and lighting accessories being used. Image can be fine-tuned with a new manual white balance adjustment and the ability to capture images in RAW format, for those that want to edit their images later.
The Micro 3.0 offers WiFi sharing ability, so you can wirelessly preview, download and share pictures & videos to a smartphone or tablet with the free Micro 3+ app available at Google Play or Apple App stores.
