Review on Polaroid Water-resistant Housing for Point & Shoot Cameras with Lens by Patrick Diaz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Waterproof, takes decent pictures, only for sub-compact cameras

For rare underwater photographers this bag is very good. Pros: Works, camera stayed dry. It comes with foam pads that you can reposition to keep your camera from rattling in your case and your camera to securely press against the flexible backing for easier access to the buttons. It has a strap hole although it is not included. Cons: I have flare/distortion around the edges of many of my photos. The photographs are still usable and will keep the memory of my trip alive; Oh, they look better than any photo I've ever taken with one of those disposable 35mm cameras. Your camera doesn't have zoom; it's too hard to get to. The buttons on the top and back of the camera are easily accessible through a flexible "rubber" backing. Other: Your camera must be a compact to fit this case. I had an old Canon A710 lying around and it didn't fit; So I used my good camera instead. Conclusion: I am satisfied with my purchase. It's fine for once a year use. If you want exceptional results, look elsewhere.

Pros
  • Quality construction
