5 out of 5 stars Sony MPK-WD worked great on our cruise.   November 10, 2008
David P. Thueson (Idaho Falls,ID USA)
The sony waterproof case worked great we used it for snorkeling in Cozumel and the Bahamahas. Then in Belize we used it on our cave tubing excursion. took great pics and video, cant speak for deep water because we where no more than 12 - 15ft. deep at the most.It did take good pics both in and out of the water. It was sometimes hard to see the screen underwater but that was probably more my goggles than the case. Flash still works and seems to do a good job with the difuser that is included.
All in all the product worked great for us and we hope to have lots more chances to use it. Hopefully next time we can try it SCUBA diving.



5 out of 5 stars Essential accessory for your W170, 150, or 300   October 20, 2008

The case is well built, and I have every confidence in its ability to protect my camera even down to 40 meters (the max rating of the housing). It has a nice firm, solid feel to the latch, easy to change o-ring (comes with a tube of o-ring grease and a spare o-ring). It has a diffuser for the flash (so that it isn't obscurred as one reviewer lamented). The buttons are easy to press and give access to all of the camera's normal features. It fits like a glove because it was purpose built for the camera. I couldn't be happier with it.


2 out of 5 stars Does job, with a major flaw   September 28, 2008
Wagnbat (Sinajana, Guam, USA)

Intent from the onset was to get a camera I could use diving. A point and shoot which if met with calamity, I wouldn't have to cry so much over. That said, Sony's latest and greatest 13 megapixel W300 with underwater mode caught my fancy, and after seeing that this marine pack was available for it, I got it.

I then ordered this Marine Pack, and was disappointed on my very first dive. So I'll cover the big con first, and then the pros.

THE CON: The fricken frackin 'wide lens' protective housing blocks the durned flash! What kind of design is that? When taking photos underwater, a flash is a must 90% of the time. You're in an enviornment where the surface and the water itself reflects light, so you need light to bring our color. See Flickr.com/photos/Wagnbat and go to my 'coral gardens at night' pictures to see the W300 with no flash in action at night. Pretty disappointing. I'm going to try and get some day shots... And while they'll be better than night shots of course, I'm sure I'll be lacking the definition I desire without buying an external flash... The cheapest of which is the Sea & Sea YS-17, with an MSRP of $400 before shipping. So if looking at this unit for SCUBA, don't buy it without being sure you're also interested in an underwater strobe kit. And no, it's not cheaper on Ebay (the strobe kits that is), I've been looking.

The pros & everything else:
This case does it's job. It keeps the water out. Took it to 50' on my first dive, for almost an hour and a half, and no issues.

Buttons are easy to get to. You can access ALL features, including spinning the wheel and going from picture to movie mode underwater. Buttons are glove friendly as well.

Movie mode is works well underwater but, as with the strobe, without some sort of bright external light source, don't expect your movies to look fantastic.

I'm giving the case 2 of 5 stars, because a design which would directly impact the quality of taking pictures underwater, exactly what the case was designed for, severely impairs the purpose of the case.



5 out of 5 stars FANTASTIC Underwater Casing   September 8, 2008

Although a bit bulky in terms of size, this underwater casing works beautifully both inside and outside of the water. I strongly recommend using it if you are going to go snorkelling or scuba diving.
