underwater photography December 18, 2008 Bought this after having a Nikonos underwater camera years ago. It was a good alternative for a casual sport diver. Bought the camera to fit in it on Ebay and had the whole system for about $50. Used it to about 100ft with no problems. Light is a problem if you go very deep at all. Camera flash is not powerful enough for anything more than a few feet away. Also a good case for rafting or just playing in the water. Take some time to get use to the controls before you get underwater. A spare battery and large memory card are also nice.
