With this LCD screen attached...does it still fit in the Go Pro Dive Housing? We are going snorkeling thorough out the Florida Keys.

It won't work with your original Dive housing back door. However, the LCD screen should come with new open and closed (dive housing) back doors that can be swapped in for the original enclosed door. So you should be all set. Enough the Keys. They're beautiful.

When you buy the LCD Touch Back kit it comes with extra housing doors to accommodate the touchback. A skeleton open back door, a touch screen back door (claimed to be waterproof to 10 ft) and a full waterproof back door (195ft) for scuba use.

The back door that came with my touch screen is bigger than the waterproof housing that came with my GoPro 3 - it doesn't fit on my housing. I can't snap it shut, the rubber gasket is in the way on the bottom where the hinge is located, so how are others getting this to work with their existing housing???

The screen comes with additional housing parts so that it does fit. I hope that answers your question ok.

I doubt it. It's what these companies do. If you change your camera, it's a whole new housing and strobes as well. I would also say that you can't possibly tell from looking at the housing whether it is compatible for the camera. Some of the variations between camera and housing are so slight as to be almost unnoticeable. But they are there, and most definitely affect the use of the camera underwater. I would definitely ask Google before I forked out for the housing.

There is no "other" waterproof housing - to my knowledge. (But...never say never.) The camera functions just fine without the monitor attached, as the manual points out. For what it's worth, the Go-Pro won't fit in it's waterproof housing with the (optional - extra cost) monitor installed either.

I have a Hero 3+. It fits the Dive housing (which is the same as for the Hero 3) and there is an adapter to fit the stock Hero 3+ housing.

I would trust the GoPro folks on that one. Simple science would suggest a smaller case would be very slightly less prone to pressure leaks, but GoPro definitely changed the rating and warranty. With a different clamp, and different size back (I am not sure about possible changes to the sealing ring other than size), it could actually be different. However, only trying it would really tell the story, and I would not want to exceed 40m.

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

This kit appears similar to one that I purchased. The housing included in my kit was the standard housing with both the waterproof and skeleton doors. The housing with the waterproof door is rated waterproof to 131'. The dive housing is rated waterproof to 197'. Check the GoPro site, lots of info to be found and the tech support is great if you have an issue. http://gopro.com/

Yes, I bought this one for a gopro4, I haven't try this under water but it looks like it would work. Hope this helps.

This question isn't related to the product that's being sold. But yes the GoPro remote is waterproof to a certain depth. You can check the GoPro website for that. And it will fit both remotes GoPro offers.

Yes, but don't do deeper then the limits of the dive housing for the GoPro.

I use my GoPros to film underwater on a downrigger. I tried the new case only one time, as it leaked from the bezel at less than 85 feet. The good news as stated, if you have a regular 3 Black, is that the new camera will fit into the old housing. I have had my 3 Black camera down to 195 feet, and believe it or not, there was enough light to see what was going on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXSgMSmyfOM And here is some footage in clearer water over 100 feet deep. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRPbdCpXzTQ

They fit both ways and yes you will be able to use the LCD. If you are going underwater or into humid places you will want to have those. Good luck.

I dot have an extended battery but the backdoor or the dive housing is the same as the fisheye housing so I assume you would just use your extended door the same way you do now. When I dive with my gopro I either where it on my head (I usually forget its there until I go to remove my mask) or if I am spearing I attached a mount to my speargun for it.

sorry for the late response, NO it won't, once you add the battery or lcd bacpacs I haven't had any "floating success". just use your gopro w/o accessories then clip it with your pc

I have only used my Gopro camera underwater once. The insert did seem to expand slightly. Not sure if that was just because of being squeezed inside the case though. The case itself seems to be sealed very well, but in the end I felt it was worth the little money to keep my mind at ease to protect my investment in the camera. Plus are you willing to chance getting fog when shooting a scene you may not be able to reproduce.

The main reason I got the inserts was for diving in Asia where the humidity is high. When diving you can get condensation. In cooler climates I have found the condensing not so much. If you have the go pro I tend to say it is better to be safe than sorry. You will get that shot of a life time and if the housing is fogged up, you will kick yourself as I did on a Whale shark encounter

Hello Michael, the LCD fits and works fine but the back door that came with it is too big and does not fit my casing/housing. The three back doors on this order have not arrived yet so do not know if they fit or not. I am wondering if the Hero3 and the Hero3+ have different size housings and the extended back doors are only for the Hero3+ housing which is larger than mine.If they are a different size, I recommend that Amazon state the actual size of the items so we don't waste our time and money buying the wrong parts.
