Can this be used to inspect a well caseing - 50 feet deep - is the camera waterproof to that depth?

I would imagine that it IS waterproof, as most of us are buying it to inspect long pipes, and those pipes are usually a fluid transporter of some kind! I don't think it would do well in any kind of pipe that is used to store or transport gasoline, though, as the vapors of gasoline (or kerosene, diesel fuel, etc) can damage plastic, vinyl and/or rubber, quite easily. But for water pipe inspections........YES! But then, at what depth the waterproofing capacity is still functioning, is unknown. Maybe to a depth of 10 feet, or possibly 20 feet, (33 feet deep is one atmosphere, in relation to water pressure....pretty high pressure) might NOT breach the waterproofing capacity of the camera housing (as that would be the weakest entry point, IMHO). Beyond that depth, is anybody's guess! I hope this helps you! Sincerely, bhaz2

Go to the Ridgid website. They claim the camera head and cable up to 10' are waterproof. But you can extend the cable up to 30' -- I am not sure why they do not say waterproof to 30'. I have not yet used my own under water.ut I have not yet used mine in a sewer.

This device is not waterproof. There are special waterproof containers for cameras, and most scuba shops rent cameras that will work underwater.

I don't think it will go that far. the camera comes with around 50ft so I think you would have to buy an extra

Yes. Camera must be turned on out of the water as the touch screen doesn't work underwater. Also you have to change the settings on your camera to use the volume buttons to take pictures. Would not recommend using this case for taking pictures while scuba diving(not rated for more than 6 feet deep) but for pics at the pool or beach(shallow water) it is perfect. Have had the case since July with no issues, I highly recommend it!

I don't think so as it's not designed as a waterproof camera. I does, however work pretty well indoors in my basement. The IR lights are bright and I can see clearly the entire basement in total darkness.

I have not used the camera as of yet because I purchased it for my upcoming honeymoon, but through the research it mentioned a rating of 200ft maximum depth

I wouldn't recommend that. I went less than ten feet in water and it ruined the camera. Fortunately I was just within warranty and it was repaired for a small fee but I haven't tried it in water since.

The camera is water proof. You don't need a casing. Just rinse with water after a dive in the ocean. Read manual for more details

Personally, I got it in a river to a depth of a meter or so. Just took a dip after rafting :-) According to the following URL, it can be underwater "to a depth of 197' (60 m)": http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/887139-REG/Sony_hdras15_b_HDR_AS15_HD_Action_Camcorder.html

I would not be surprised if it is. I use it to monitor the timing marks on my yamaha vx 1100 waverunner engine. It has excellent resolution. I never submerged it , but according to its design it may be waterproof.

I don't know the measurements of that particular camera and lens.It's definitely waterproof.

As far as "totally waterproof", this detector can go down to 10 feet max, so "totally" isn't necessarily the case either. Look to the Sea Hunter or Infinium LS Series for much more "waterproof" detectors from Garrett. Remember to get yourself a good set of waterproof headphones as well because they don't come with the machine automatically. I hope this helped. Good Hunting!

I seriously doubt that you can use this as an underwater camera. Not for this price. It works best under an eave with light rain hitting against it. Anything more than that I would say no. I haven't tried it but I wouldn't advise it

I have used the camera in it's underwater case. The video is fine as long as you don't go so deep that it gets dark. The video playback is excellent. I have two of these cameras and am very pleased.

I believe that the camera can be used under water, BUT it has to be in a waterproof case. I am not sure how this "feature" makes it different from any other camera, but that is my understanding
