Reviews and criticism

DPReview.com tested the camera extensively both on land and in the sea and noted that the camera had much better image quality than other "rugged cameras" tested. They also noted, however, that "one must be extremely careful, as just a few grains of sand can end the AW1's life ... and repairing or replacing it won't be cheap."[2]

gollark: Consider: the people complaining about wanting communism could probably work in a well-paying job, obtain money, and donate it to effective charities like the Against Malaria Foundation.
gollark: Capitalism seems to be doing a fairly okay job of satisfying the values of, well, people in places with more resources, and apparently most people's values don't actually involve helping people they don't directly interact with because humans are bad.
gollark: From what I do know of Marx, he ends up just making up an analysis framework to get the results he wants out of analyzing things.
gollark: No.
gollark: Maybe I can read a summary.
