could this be used to hold a small camera when snorkeling?

I don't see why not as long as the camera has two connection sites. Would not work with disposable camera as there is no snap in connection just a rubber band loop. Item is made from webbing and plastic so no problem with the water. Never tried it that way but food for thought in the future.

I dont think the design would work for that..this is a pretty loose strap system.

I agree. I don't think it would be a snug fit, but you can try it. Also, whichever you get, beware of leaking! Check it often. Don't let even a single grain of sand get on the rubber seal. I had better luck with the case of a disposable underwater camera. Seriously.

I am using it with a go pro, but it is big enough and if secured properly I think it would work fine!

I don't think so. It is too think and clunky for the camera strap. This intended for the camera BAG - or a messenger BAG to take the weight off your shoulder. Get a neoprene strap, or UPstrap or something like that for your camera strap.

This is a small unit and I do not think it can support a camera unless it is very small and light. Under 20 grams

Not specifically for that purpose. It's roomy enough to carry one but it does not have any camera-specific compartments. I have an AmazonBasics backpack I carry my Canon T4i in which has special compartments for a DSLR; those compartments are not included in this backpack.

You could try it if you had a case handy, or review pictures/controls/dimensions for the camera you have vs what this is made for but I wouldn't make go through a mail order/shipped purchase just to chance it. These cases are all manufactured specifically to the shape and controls of these cameras and the fit has to be just right or else you won't be able to use your camera. Another thought might be to check with a camera store that stocks the cases and cameras and knows what else fits with what. If I had to do it all over again, I have one of the newer waterproof panasonic Lumix cameras and I just love it a lot more than my older one which fit the case, and I'd be tempted to go with a case that fit a waterproof camera so I could use the camera both ways and also not worry so much about leakage when diving.

Not big enough and the spot for the water bladder is way to small I had to return mine. Also after you put your camera equipment in not much room for personal stuff. Tripod area week

Unfortunately it's basically impossible to swim under water with this pouch. An air pocket forms in the pouch. It allows you to take pictures with the lens in the water, but as far as diving goes? I'd look somewhere else.

My guess is definitely not. The case dimensions are 4 X 4 X 5 and my small Olympus barely fits in there. Play it safe and get something bigger.

Try www.aquapac.net I have several different size aquapac models for different cameras and cell phones. I have used them with great results while snorkeling in Hawaii.

I'm pretty sure it would. And towels probably too. We haven't actually used it for snorkeling/diving, but as a vacation/swimming bag. We've been able to put 6 towels, 4 changes of clothes, camera gear and had room to put more in there. Bag has waist and chest straps to help shoulder a heavy load. I'm super impressed with this bag it's heavy duty and made for saltwater.

I would say yes but it would be tight while attached and if you have more than one extra lens you're carrying, probably not. The walls inside are completely adjustable so with just one extra lens, I'd give it a try. I recommend the bag. I've been happy with it.

I believe that it would. It is a large, strong bag that is made of strong mesh (water can drip out of it) and you can see through it. It is made for holding scuba gear including large fins. I think it could hold the gear you mentioned. Keep in mind too that the bag is very flexible. I hope this helps.

No, it will only hold the camera with the 14/42mm lense attached. It's a very snug fit too.

It should if it has the tripod mount thread but it depends on your application. Seeing as the model camera you mentioned is useful for underwater I don't see why you couldn't use this except that I'm not sure how well the neoprene covering would hold up as it seems relatively permeable and less water-resistant. Also, I might put something on the actual threads to avoid possible corrosion from the saltwater as I don't doubt the durability of the handle itself but just the threads. Even though it's advertised as a stabilization system it's just a handle and it's all about how steady your hand is with the camera and if the camera itself has auto-stabilizing features.

I would think so, however it's not padded at all. So by the time you added some sort of padding, it might be a tight squeeze depending upon how large your camera is.
