Required for cleared underwater video recording

I actually was not 100% what this was about.  It has two doors - an improved door with better access to the microphones (at the expense of reducing underwater depth from 130 ft to 10 ft).  This door has a thin membrane (two holes covered by membrane) that presumably allow more sound to travel to the stereo microphones. I have not tried it yet, but surely a big improvement over ZERO openings on the factory door.

The 2nd door is a flat (vs convex) door - this apparently makes for clearer pictures under water.  I have not tried it yet, but makes sense if they optimized the convex door for out of water activities.

Thought I'd buy the Kodak playsport to try out my underwater cinematography skills. This camera has great underwater performance and color correction. The colors on this fish in the video appear exactly the same as in real life!

Though the product works exactly as promised, be aware of the following limitations (more a factor of the camera, not the bag):

Underwater in bright light, a typical digital camera LCD can be extremely hard to see (I believe purpose-built underwater cameras are polarized in such a way as to mitigate this). I found myself pointing blindly at the coral and fish of the reef and hoping my auto-focus was working since my camera doesn't have a physical viewfinder.

I went to the manufacturer's website to ensure I got the right size for my model of camera, but it was still a little loose, such that sometimes when I used the zoom, it misaligned with the built-in port, and obstructed the mechanics of the zoom (shutting down the camera)

I had this camera in the ocean and river for hours, and not a drop got in. The glass port for the lens made the shots extremely clear. Am already packing it for my next watery vacation.

Worked great for underwater pictures while snorkeling. Completely waterproof. Takes great pictures and the touch pad still works through the case.

I bought this as a gift for our cruise to take photos while in the water, snorkeling, etc.

The picture quality if great. Beautiful color, resolution, you name it. The underwater setting does a fantastic job of correcting for the blue while free diving. If you don't change that it'll look like typical off color underwater shots so don't forget to switch back and forth. My only complaint about it is the fact that there isn't a quick change setting for underwater.

Egonomically it's okay but not great. I wish Canon had designed it with some sort of a grip on the shutter button end. It's kinda like holding a potato.

As for waterproofing. Never had an issue but after every outing it was soaked in tap water to remove the salt and dried off before any compartment was opened. One thing I made sure of though to ensure it didn't leak was to check the seals of any cover I opened up for sand, etc. If you don't check the seal on any underwater camera you chance leaks.

Wholly recommend this camera as it's great for playing in the water with.

This was an inexpensive way to get some underwater shots. My camera,however didn't have a viewfinder--just the screen on the back which turned into a mirror underwater so I was shooting blindly. Got some good clear shots though. It should be noted that you won't be able to use flash with this case as the flash bounces inside the case.

Did what it said it would do but the picture quality is just bad underwater. I used it for scuba diving and only 2 photos turned out OK. I guess I will need to shell out some serious money to get decent underwater photos.

I have a same Panasonic underwater camera and this device kept it from sinking during our snorkle trip.

Not the best resolution on the screen at the back of the camera. The camera does the job of being waterproof. Months of use and had no problem at all. I am a big fan of snorkeling.

The underwater case works very well. I took it to a diving trip to Mexico. The case is very easy to use. We took a lot of great photos/videos with colorful fishes and coral. Fantastic image quality. Not a little bit leak.
One little tip to use the case is to set the LED brightness of the RX camera to "Sunny", otherwise it will be quite difficult to see the contents on the screen in bright sunlight.

Great performance for the money. It is either this or buy a several hundred dollar camera, but if you don't plan to do much underwater photography, this will work just fine.

This camera worked like a charm.  Never had a bit of trouble with it.  Used it recording fish in sea water.  Took pictures under water.  Not a drop of water in the case.  The viewing display did get foggy one day when it was 90 but as soon as I went back in the water it cleared up.

Hard to use underwater, display to dark & battery needs 3x more power to get about an hour of video! Great image quality just a pain in the butt!
Why wasn't this BETA tested by divers!

Very happy with this 'Pro' alternative, took it to Hawaii and was able to do underwater video, images and time lapse.  The image quality was excellent.  The menus and operation do take some time to get comfortable, but once you have it down, it all worked great.  Very happy with the purchase.  Plan to use it on my Bike and also for some aerial photography.

I use these for under water video.  I like that its compact and waterproof.  I attach it to retractable lanyard and just pull it out in front of camera and done.  Later in post editing I use the three cards to color correct and the results are great.  Does what it's supposed to.

I purchased this product so that I could take pictures under water but it didn't work. I could only get touch-screen to work above water. So the best I could do with this product was record video by starting video above water, then going underwater, and ending the video above water. It was waterproof and dirtproof as advertised but touch screen didn't work for me underwater.
