Worked perfectly
I got this and a flip for a sailing trip. It worked perfectly the first and every time I used it. Check the lens cover for water droplets after swimming to prevent them from…

Probably one of the best buys ever
Nothing bad to say about this product. I can’t understand the low ratings from others. Most of the people complained about leakage, but that was not the case for me.

Is exactly what it says it is!
This works perfectly on the flip! Secure fit with functionality. Just wish the Flip was as good as the case

Works great so far
I took my chances and bought this even after reading the mixed reviews. I tested it by putting tissue in the case and submerged in my kitchen sink and the tissue was dry.

I bought the Flip Ultra and the Underwater case for 1st generation Flip Ultra in February for our vacation to Hawaii in May 2009.

WARNING – This is a Fisher-Price housing
I bought this housing for our dive trip to St Lucia and was really excited to get some spectacular underwater video.

I bought this to use on a recent trip to Maui, HI. All I can say is WONDERFUL. The image quality and sound are far higher than I expected on a $140 camera with a $40 housing. I have pretty extensive UW photography experience and own a number of housings for my SLRs, so I was pretty confident I could see a good seal all the way around the o-ring and hopped right in. In the ocean and the pool this camera was a winner. The lens is great in low light and thus perfect for UW work.

I'm planning to rig a mount for my BC, just turn it on and hit record before I dive, we'll see how well it does below 30' -- but thus far its been fine. Generally its the buttons on these things that just cease to work below a rated depth, but the o-ring holds a seal pretty well. Certainly do not use it outside the manufacturers specifications if you expect them to be responsible.

I am very, very pleased. Perfect for baby in the pool or snorkling/diving in open water situations.

Took my Flip and waterproof case snorkeling in the Bahamas and it worked perfectly. No leaks, controls were easy to operate. Screen was a little difficult to see, but this was due to reflection from sun and water. I would highly recommend.

Works great
I bought the waterproof box to use my camera on a trip to Can Cun and the only thing I do not anticipate was that it would need a bigger carrying case, other that that the camera…
