"You have definitely produced a product that is durable, of tremendous quality and extremely practical for use in emergency services. During field testing our dive team found the Tachyon camera performed beyond expectations. It not only withstood exposure to harsh environments, but went on to produce video of professional quality."
"This camera is exactly what we needed in order to document and critique underwater rescue missions. I highly recommend that any department performing dive rescue operations utilize the Tachyon to document incidents which can later be critiqued in an effor to improve safety, response, and most importantly - save lives."
