Yes, my brother and I own the one sold by Ikelite and it's product number is 6210.09 and it's price is approx 250$. You can check out the specs on the Ikelite site, but we've had them at 110' with no problems at all. I will stress that the O-ring seal requires the application of silicone after 5-6 dives to ensure the seal stays water tight. The case provides access to all camera functions except the sliding switch that changes to video mode. This does not prevent you from taking video and stills on the same dive. All in all, my brother and I are very satisfied with the camera and the case. I hope this information helps.

I remember that I had a similar question back in December. I wasn't able to find an official Sony one out there, but I did find two possible solutions. I found that Ikelite made a case, but it was expensive. Here is a link from AmazonIkelite Underwater Camera Housing for Sony DSC-WX9 Digital Still CamerasWhat I ended up using was a Dicapac. It's like a Ziploc bag, but it has multiple seals: Two ziploc style seals and a velcro one. I went snorkeling with it and had no problems, but I wouldn't go diving with it. This is the compatibility list:http://www.dicapacusa.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=107You can get it the proper size (WP-310) from amazon hereDicaPac WP310 160x105mm Medium Alfa Waterproof Digital Camera Case with Optical Lens -Clear I remember that I had a similar question back in December.

Buy a Skeleton case it will have all the connection openings cut out already and will improve audio. But won't be water prof or dust prof

The hook at the end doesn't allow the underwater housing's lock to be used. If you cut that hook, that will be perfectly usualable with the housing, but not with the naked camera anymore

No, I have not seen any cases either. Maybe you should email Lifestraw and request that they make cases or better yet partner up with the company and invent one. A case is a great idea because I worry about breaking it while being stored. Think I will go to Michaels and get creative. Or the pcv idea might be even better. Thanx!

There is one that I know of fire this camera, you can find it searching Amazon or eBay. It is crazy expensive and it costs more than the camera. I'd suggest one of the bag style universal cases for underwater.... They work well enough for a casual weekend scuba diving anyways.

By looking at the construction of it you would think so. I have a life proof case and in theory it would work. But if it didn't. For any reason. I just ruined my units. I would like to test this since I swim as well but just don't want to risk it.

Sorry. I never used it underwater. But I do feel, by hands on the camera and components, that the whole package is well engineered and well made. I wouldn't hesitate to use the case in the rain.

No... but you might be able to buy/build a waterproof enclosure for it. Otherwise check out the SWR-M100 if you want to stick with Alpine - it's the only marine sub I know of that Alpine makes.

Rugged Waterproof Case for Diving, Rafting, and More The Looxcie HD Outdoor Pack features a hard-shell waterproof case that is IPX8 rated to a dive depth of 60 meters (196 feet). This means it can withstand submersion in water and maintain its seal, so your camera stays protected on land and in water. Because of the case durability, it's ideal for extreme dry-land adventures, like ATVs, snowmobiles, and bungee jumping. Mount the camera on your surfboard while you catch a monster wave or on your bike handlebars to capture yourself tackling an extreme mountain course. If you take a tumble, your camera will stay safe--and you'll have captured a shot of the wipeout! BTW,GoPro is another good choice,maybe

The kit I got came with a hard case. Like this one: http://toolguyd.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Dewalt-DCK285C2-Hammer-Drill-Impact-Driver-Kit.jpg

it already has the waterproof housing, just add receiver, the ESC is waterproof as well. Flysky makes a really nice receiver/radio combo that works awesome in this kit

Since I returned mine, I have not found anything similar. If I could find the same thing but of a good quality I would buy it in a heart beat. As of right now though I do not have a case and am still looking for a better option.

Same thing happened to me recently and looking for a hard drop proof case. Wish someone could rec a case.

Epiphone does have a hardshell case for this bass. If you can't find it at amazon, try musicians friend.
