Customer Reviews

Quality waterproof housing.
Let me say right off -- I haven't taken this housing down to 110+ feet. I have, however, taken it to around 60 feet, and it performed well. No leaks at all, and that's what I was hoping for.

This housing is specifically for the Olympus Tough 8000 waterproof camera, and the two fit together perfectly.

The design is solid, sturdy, well-made. Price is reasonable (well, I'd like cheaper, but it's reasonable compared to the arm-and-a-leg other housings cost). Picture quality is decent -- that is, it's decent compared to the Tough 8000's non-housing picture quality, which is so-so, as point and shoot cameras go.

The Tough 8000 is good to 'rugged' use, but if it's going to be spending much time underwater (skin / SCUBA diving, surfing), you're better off using the housing. The Tough 8000 will leak if you have it underwater a bunch -- trust me, it happened to me.

The housing completely mitigates any risks of water damage to the camera, and is fairly compact as far as housings go. It'll sink, so make sure you have a float strap attached if you're surfing or fishing with it, or it's bye-bye camera if you drop it.

I'm giving it 4 stars because it does what it's supposed to do and is reasonably priced.
