Images taken underwater appear distorted or blurred.

Spherical lenses are used to reduce the size of the Waterproof Case lens. When shooting images underwater, straight objects may look distorted or shooting images may appear less clear than those of normal shooting due to the different optical refraction of water. This is not a malfunction.
