Is this flashlight suitable for scuba diving up to 30 meters? If I get 2 of them do you think I will have enough light to film something 60 inches awa

I have no idea if it's waterproof or not, it doesn't say anything about that I would check with the seller if I were you

No. Don't get it wet. It needs to be compliant with FL1 standards. You need to spend about $30 more to get a good waterproof light. But believe me it's worth it!

I haven't submerged the light but can't imagine it being water tight. Light would be plentiful I'm sure. You can use this thing instead of your headlights to drive almost. It does have an o ring on the back battery compartment. The lens portion is what I'm not sure about.

not suitable for under water use. will keep rain out but I would not recommend submersing it.It is sealed with o-rings but the adjustable beam slide seems pretty loose and I highly doubt it would keep water out.

These are not waterproof. You'll have to spend a lot more for a light that will survive to 30m. The Fenix LD12 is guaranteed waterproof, but I think only to a couple meters. Might work, but I can't say for sure.

Absolutely NOT !!These flashlights are waterproof meaning that if some rain falls on them they may still work. Do not put in water.

I have no idea if these are waterproof but I would suspect that they are not. They are bright enough to light something but I believe that I would bite the bullet and buy a light designed for underwater use.

Thats a great question, i have yet to test this light's waterproof capabilities so i really dont know. The battery cap/activation button does have an O-ring but im not sure how the lens and bulb would fair fully submerged. Your best best it to get one for now and do a submersion test.

The only real reason this flashlight can not be used as a dive light is the power actuation button on the end. If you add additional O-rings to the tubing/head groups (where applicable), that will seal all the joints beyond any doubt. Unfortunately, the pressure of diving will push past the rubber button on the end. Solve that issue and you will have a moderate depth dive light.

My flashlight is 28.27mm (1.08"). I had to use a couple wraps of electrical tape to make it work. So you would have to uses tape or spacer or something to make it work.

It depends on the camera. They are all different and you need to look closely at the depth as it can affect the quality of the pictures. For this particular model, it was 50 feet. There are some that go to 35 ft or less. Also the clarity of the water and the lighting also affects things. I would tell you that I used this camera with snorkeling and it did a decent job at 20 feet. My pictures turned out and I love them.

It works well for scuba diving. I prefer the video quality to the GoPro and Contour because of the video stabilization. You will need to purchase the ADA-RD1 with the flat port for underwater. Happy shooting

In addition to the recreational diving limit, unless you have U/W camera lights, everything you shoot at depth will be monochrome and very dark. Even at relatively moderate depths, the water filters out much of the color spectrum, so there really isn't much need for the case to go any deeper.

I have been very satisfied with this camera...................but as with any underwater camera, the lights are needed at any kind of depth...............the videos are also very good

They say the camera can go underwater up to 9.8 feet. i haven't had mine in water but I've had problems with the flash not working under dim light conditions. I think the camera is cheap with a poor operating program.Spend a little more money and get a better camera. I do not recommend it.

We hav only used it in the pool but am unaware of a depth limit? It takes excellent underwater video for sure! We love it!

I find it to be very satisfactory. I use mine for underwater video, I get two 1 hr dives in and I haven't run the battery out yet.

I need to look at my sizes, but the problem is that this is a very nice lens and you might benefit from a better light. My problem with this light is that it does not illuminate things very close to the lens 2-3cm away. Otherwise its a very cheap way to get light at 5-10cm distance.

The flashlight is sold with 'waterproof' and 'floating'.. From past experience this means casual or momentary exposure or contact with water. Diving gear, including flashlights or cameras, that has been tested under 'SO MANY ATMOSPHERES OF PRESSURE' will provide a depth the item will remain "waterproof' to or will provide a depth over time <ie will be waterproof at 300feet/ meters for 2hours or whatever. Would suggest that you contact the manufacturer on whether they have done testing or have certification <often by independent testing labs, like Pittsburg Testing Lab, places like UL or FM are only concerned with SAFETY> The flashlight is sold with 'waterproof' and 'floating'..

Not really. A dedicated dive camera is better .. this one's depth rating is pretty shallow. 40f ~10 meters or so .. Most scuba activity is 10-30 meters (or more)

I used it at 40 feet (12 meters) and is OK. They say in manual/machine that you can go up to 30 meters. I have the old one (d10) and used at 24 meters even with maximum defined for 12 meters. So you can go further but do not use microphone (avoid recording audio on deeper dives ok? you will broke you mic, I did it. Still take pictures, but no sound if I record videos). It is simple, easy, cool. Just set it to underwater before starting your dive. If you keep it in automatic mode you can have some pictures not very clear, with a light blue image... if you set it to underwater, clear and great pictures. Very easy to use. Do some trials before diving, try it in a swimming pool... and enjoy!
