We bought this for our son for a birthday gift, so I haven't used it, but as I understood, it was waterproof.

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

The camera is water proof. I have used one for my work in harsh environments for some time now, and it is an excellent camera. Due to this, I bought one for my son.

I've never used the flash when the camera is wet, but I believe it is waterproof.

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.

The camera comes with a case that you use to waterproof it. In it's case, it is Waterproof to 131'/40m

Yes! This is a terrible camera! I bought it because I was going to a water park with my family. After it went underwater (less than 3 feet) a couple of times it stopped working. I opened it up and noticed water had gone in through the casing even though it was closed correctly. Besides that the focus and zoom is terrible! I took it back and got my money back right away. There are newer and better waterproof cameras out there and I would invest in a different model/brand. Sorry for the delay in my response.

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....

The short answer is no. It does come with a Lifeproof manual but is obviously not the same thing. When we did the actual water test on it, it was actually waterproof. No water came inside the case. However, water did get between two plastic lens covers for the camera. This caused a fog when it started drying out. If you don't take a lot of pics, it should keep your phone dry.

Sorry, I've never tried to take pictures under water. If the case isn't scratched, I assume they will be okay.

It has a waterproof case that you put it in. I took mine diving I forgot about a red lens. But the video turned out ok. I took mine down 30ft diving and we were down there for at least 45 min to a hour.

I can't help you with this. my camera has always been & will be used only under dry conditions. Nothing in the Specs says that this model is waterproof. dust sealing against its sensor might be an official feature that is YET to be tested. you might want a leather half case to give it more grip. Presumingly, it is not sealed against waterfalls. Good luck

The camera is NOT waterproof, but it does come with the waterproofcase, I was too afraid to try it in the water during my trip to Puerto Rico.

Unfortunately I was unable to find anything in the paperwork stating it is waterproof. The camera comes with a waterproof case that has buttons for operation, and the remote is definitely water resistant if not waterproof, it would not be effected by rain but I am not sure if it is submersible.

Loralai - no, it is not waterproof. I am quite happy with the camera, however.

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.

The camera itself isn't. But it comes with a rubber case, which makes it good to go in the rain. But you still can't submerge it.I sold my Tachyon to a friend and bought a $299 GoPro. In its case it's waterproof down to 141'.

The camera comes with the waterproof kit, including the case and surfboard mount. It does not include any of the 'usual' mounts or a SD card.

Yes, it has a waterproof case. However, you do NOT want to buy this camera. The first one I got did not work and I sent it back to the manufacturer. They sent me a new one. It did not work either. This camera is garbage. I recommend the SeaLife Mini II. More expensive but works perfectly.
