Features

  • 32mm f/3.5 lens
  • Active 3-point AiAF system (fixed focus under water)
  • Focusing range: 0.45m to infinity on land; 1m to 3m (macro: 0.45 to 1m) under water
  • Easy-to-see, real-image Big Viewfinder
  • Water resistant to a depth of 5m

With the Prima AS-1 you don't have to worry about the weather, you can even take a swim with it



Sporty design
The Prima AS-1 can be used anywhere, without having to worry about getting it dirty or wet. Safe to use underwater at depths of up to five metres, this camera can be used in any conditions without having to take any special precautions.

Easy to clean
If your camera gets covered in sand or mud, simply rinse it in a bucket of tap water and you’re ready to shoot.

Smart Focusing
Above water, the Prima AS-1 uses autofocus but underwater, the camera will switch to fixed focus, including close-up mode for catching details as near as 45 centimetres.

Built-in Flash
The Prima AS-1 can be used any time of the day or night thanks to its built-in flash. The camera flash can also be set to fire automatically whenever the conditions are too dark for daylight photography, so you will never get disappointing results.
