My daughter wants a waterproof case to use in the pool taking underwater pictures. Is this the right case, or should I get her the lifeproof case?

This case goes on the lifeproof case so that it floats. You need the lifeproof first

This is a floating device! I would get the life proof case that is what we have and it works well in the pool

You will enjoy having both. The lifeproof case works great, and the slip on lifejacket makes it float and protects from drops on land.Mike

You need the actual Lifeproof case first. This is not a total enclosure case. It is a life jacket that fits around the case that floats the phone to the surface if you drop it under water.

She will need the lifeproof case. This case goes on the outside of the lifeproof case. It does not have any protective features. However, I would not recommend buying a lifeproof case through amazon. They are counterfeit. I made that mistake. Best option would be best buy or Walmart.

This is just the Jacket that goes over the lifeproof case to make it float. You need to buy the lifeproof case

This case allows the phone to float, the life-proof case is waterproof to about 8ft. Iuse both when I'm around water.

I can't see which waterproof case this refers to. I have 2 different kinds. The kind that's a sealed bag, I haven't gone diving with it but it sure looks like it would work. The other one I have is a lifeproof case that is rated to a certain depth for a certain amount of time by the manufacturer, off hand I think it is 6 feet for 1/2 hr, but you can look that up on their site easily.

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

No protective case needed in water. I had a good experience with this camera. For the money, I felt the picture quality was fine. It provided me decent underwater shots on my snorkeling trip in Cancun and we used it on land out on the beach too so I could keep my Nikon D5000 away from the sand. I was pleased overall because for the price, I wasn't expecting much. It was better than expected.

Yes it is. Since I left my initial review I took the camera in the pool. It worked great for about 30 min. but then the lens started fogging up. I took it out and let it dry~ it never came back on. I was able to get the video off it and the video was great, but the camera is dead now. So I would not recommend using it in water.

Yes. The case fits like a glove. The pictures I took with it are fantastic. The ZS10 camera has a special mode for underwater pictures that you should set. Every button, knob, and dial on the camera can be used while in the case. Quite impressive. My only complaint is it is a little bigger then I would like it to be. I mounted it to my BC with a lanyard that loops back on itself to keep it snug to the BC when I am entering the water. I have dove up to 95 feet, with over 20 dives to date with no leaks. I would recommend that you leave it in the case between dives to prevent sand from getting on the O-rings. Since you can turn the camera on/off while diving, I found I could leave it in the case for several days of diving before you need to remove it to charge the camera battery. Just rinse with water, like all your other equipment.

you need to buy this. you put this door on the waterproof housing and yes, the camera is waterproof for diving. you also will need some sort of red filter to make the colors underwater look right. this door is all you need.

No! Nothing is actually that good. However I have had better success with the LifeProof than any other cover OtterBox etc. Living on a lake and always by the water I have dropped previous phones in or walked into the water having had my phone in my pocket only to ruin a couple of phones. The LifeProof is Truly Waterproof! I have taken images under water in my 8ft deep end of our pool with no issues!

I remember that I had a similar question back in December. I wasn't able to find an official Sony one out there, but I did find two possible solutions. I found that Ikelite made a case, but it was expensive. Here is a link from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Ikelite-Underwater-Housing-DSC-WX9-Digital/dp/B005NXKED2 What I ended up using was a Dicapac. It's like a Ziploc bag, but it has multiple seals: Two ziploc style seals and a velcro one. I went snorkeling with it and had no problems, but I wouldn't go diving with it. This is the compatibility list: http://www.dicapacusa.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=107 You can get it the proper size (WP-310) from amazon here http://www.amazon.com/DicaPac-WP310-160x105mm-Waterproof-Digital/dp/B001BSTJIO/

We have a very low-end case for the camera. After all, it's shock-resistant :) It has survived whatever a 12 year-old girl can throw at it after two weeks at the shore and multiple family trips and still takes very nice photos.

Yes you can still take pictures. Many cases I interfere with the flash by casting a shadow. The lifeproof case does not. The flash and camera work very well. I had a friend use it when snorkeling and it did a decent job. But personally I'd feel uncomfortable using it as an underwater camera even though I hear you can. Otherwise I use the camera all the time and it does a good job. No problems at all.

The camera itself is not waterproof, but its case is. So as long as you have it in its case, then yes it is totally waterproof. Has it gotten wet without its case? Ya I've accidentally splashed it a time or two, if that happens I immediately turn it off and check to make sure I didn't get the internal parts wet. So try not to get water on it when its outside its case. I've taken it free diving in its case to depths deeper than 60 feet and, it can go down about 200 feet.

yes it is really waterproof, make sure the top clips are closed completely as instructed. and the case has clear see through back and front. i was making pics and videos with it on.

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.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought a lifeproof case was already water proof? If so why would you need this? But yeah it'll probably fit.

Yes, but you have to activate the camera before submerge the phone underwater. I boughted this case for my vacation in last august and at this time I'm still using the case, due to you don't have to worry of your phone get wet Anymore. Recomended

a waterproof case is needed, such as one of these Lightweight Underwater Camera Bag suitable for the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS25S Waterproof Protection
