Review on ๐Ÿ“ธ Protective HP Q6218A Photosmart Underwater Housing for R817 and R818 Digital Cameras by Russ Charmin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great place to stay, couldn't ask for more!

We bought this case for an HP R817 digital camera almost three years ago. It has at least 20 dives under its belt, as well as plenty of snorkeling and regular use. Both the camera and the housing hold up very well. They are easy to use, durable and very reliable. Works well with or without a flash at various depths and light levels. Even the preview screen is pretty clear through the body, so you know exactly what your images are going to look like. The camera has to be taken out of the case to take decent pictures from the water, otherwise they will be blurry and may have water stains. Getting on and off is quick and easy. We've never had a problem with water leaks. Very durable, still looks and works like new! Incredible value!

Pros
  • Water resistant to 40 meters
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
