can I use the Polaroid Dive Rated Waterproof Underwater Housing Case For The Panasonic Lumix TS2
920788
if it fits I see no reason but its rated to 6 meters and I have taken it snorkeling to 15 feet. Its a pretty nice camera

As with Chet below, if it fits and you can still use the controls, then go ahead. I've taken it into fairly heavy surf, into waterfalls and snorkeling as far as I could go and it is still good 2 years later. I would be surprised if a case not specifically designed for it allowed you to access the buttons / controls.

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.

Sony makes an underwater housing for the Handycam series - it was made for the smaller mini dv video cameras but should fit the SR12. Now, if you're talking about DIVING with this housing, it is rated at 11 meters ( or is it 11 feet - not sure) - check the specs - so it's more for snorkeling I would say. I forget the model number of the housing, but it retails for around $200, maybe a bit less. Hope this helps. Tony

Hi Kuri,the suggested model of water housing for this camcorder is the SPK CXB . Thanks_Mitch

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

Hi Paula, My name is Lonnie. I also bought the camera and waterproof housing. Mine is still good. Try here for a case. http://www.intova.net/ . If you can't find the case contact customer support and I'm sure they can help....

My guess would be no. When underwater, there must be access to all of the buttons on the camera, and the lens must fit perfectly. We have both a Canon G11 (with this housing) and a Canon G12. In addition to this housing, we have an Ikelite housing that we had to have modified to fit the G12. Hope this answer helps.

I think this case is specifically designed for the 300 HS - call Canon Customer Care and ask - I bought this case before I went to Hawaii. I took fantastic underwater shots and it NEVER leaked. I think the case is terrific. You need to call Canon and ask because the case is set up with same configuration for all the control buttons.

i had an old polariod camera that was pretty small. it fit but when i was more than 10 ft down the was soft and compressed so it wouldnt work properly. for the specific camera u asked about i dont know because i dont have that one. we did end up buying a waterproof shock proof camera that we like to use much better. its easier and worth the 250 or so we paid for it plus its a good every day camera.

I don't know of any other casing...so using the camera outside the waterproof case is needed to have full audio capability. Usually the vids made in harsh conditions like snow or water sports get a music track laid over the video because there's no real time audio. Be creative. PB

I would use the snap on filters. Compromiseing the dive housing by unscrewing the mount makes me nervous. If you are not actually "diving" but just going in the water using the standard waterproof case just use the snap on filters you'll be fine.

no. This case is not water proof. It is completely exposed all around. There is a hole for the camera. I would not recommend taking this case underwater.

I bought a Panasonic Marine Case for Lumix TS3 Digital Camera - DMW-MCFT3 via Amazon from Bluegrass and it works fine with my Panasonic DMC-Ft4GC-K Lumix camera.

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.

I don't believe this case supports the zs25 model. The Panasonic website lists the following supported models:DMC-ZS19K , DMC-ZS20K , DMC-ZS20S , DMC-ZS20R , DMC-ZS20W. The DMW-MCTZ35 model of underwater case should support your camera. The Panasonic website states that it supports the following models: DMC-ZS25S , DMC-ZS25K. Overall, I've been very pleased with the Panasonic underwater cases and the quality of the photos!

It works great with the underwater case. I've used it many times and have loved it. The only 'minor' annoyance is the little wrist strap has to be removed from the camera when you put it into the waterproof case. That's to be expected. Otherwise, you can use ALL the functions of the camera with it in the case.

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!
