Earlier I posted to this newsgroup that my recently purchased Sea&Sea
AquaPix DX-3100 was exhibiting surprisingly poor image quality
(http://groups.google.com/groups?q=dx...=UTF-8&oe=UTF-
8&selm=vs1kpu69dhulec%40corp.supernews.com&rnum=1) .

I brought this concern to Sea&Sea's attention and while they were very
friendly (including getting me a quick replacement DX-3100 to see if my
particular DX-3100 was defective), it appears that this camera line suffers
from a design flaw that cannot be fixed. In fact Sea&Sea admits that the
image quality suffers from pixelation and that Sea&Sea's DX-3000G model
provides much better image quality.

So, while I have had a great deal of enjoyment from my Sea&Sea MX-10, I have
to strongly recommend to anyone reading this message, that they not purchase
the DX-3100.

Bummer.

I'll suggest the Canon line, or the waterproof Olympus, as starting replacements.
No pixelation here, not even without a strobe.
