Review on πŸ“Έ Official GoPro Accessory: HERO8 Black Protective Housing for Enhanced Performance by Kevin Kue

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Completed several dives. Then flooded and wrecked

Worked a few dives then flooded, wrecked camera. After the flood I checked the oring carefully, found no debris or damage so I don't know how I could have prevented it. I really noticed that the camera starts flooding at depth. I might have saved the camera, but I was on a drift dive on a wreck and would have swept past my group of divers on resurfacing. Pre-Flood shelters could only be used normally. The button to take a photo or start a video was difficult to use, making it difficult to reliably start or stop a video. Due to the design of the camera (not the case) there are almost no settings to change while in the case (hard backed) as they are all accessible via the touchscreen. It also comes with an open back if you just want an extra layer of protection for your camera without the added waterproofing of a sealed case. But there was no way to try before the camera flooded.

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
  • Something else
