New Panasonic Underwater Camera

I use my Pelican Case to hold and transport the underwater housing for my Panasonic Lumix camera. I feel as though the contents of the case are completely protected.

Pelican injection molded case purchased for the New Panasonic DVX 200 camera and accessories every smaller case was to small the new DVX is bigger than Older HVXs

I own a panasonic HVX200 and a canon 7D. Underwater casings for these cameras would cost thousands. For under 30 bucks, I purchased this aqua pac and filmed my entire beach vacation in the water and on the sand. I was still able to use the touch screen and make calls through the aqua pac. I converted the iPhone clips to an HD size that will fit the aspect ratios of both my HVX and 7D. The quality looks great and has a unique look. Submersible up to 15 ft, the Whanganui Aqua Pac is perfect for friend and family fun in an environment not suitable for electronics. Pool use would be amazing! This case is a MUST have for anyone with an iPhone.

This lens is absolutelly marvellous. It is razor sharp from f2.8 to f7.1 (the sweet spot is f4-5.6), very usable to f16-18 and, if you need super sharp images you should avoid f20-22. Comparing to Olympus 60mm, that I also own, this lens is significantly sharper and holds it's sharpness better for a wider apperture range. The Olympus is also a very good lens and produces fantastic images, but there is something about this Panasonic that gives that extra wow factor, specially in super macro images. Both Panasonic and Olympus macro lenses are better than the highly appreciated and award winnig Sigma 70mm f2.8 macro, which I also own. I've been using the Panasonic (and Olympus) for underwater photography, and I strongly recomend it. The difference in focus distance to 1:1 when compared to Olympus is 2cm and could be a down side when shooting supermacro with wetdiopters. My experience says that this is not significant even with +15 diopters (the focus difference between the two at maximum amplitude is about 5mm). There is a slight advantage in the Olympus if you need more distance, and the same magnification to make the photo, on the other hand the hyperfocal distance of the Panasonic is smaller which is an advantage for underwater pics. The focus hunt that some complain about does not differ significantly from other macro lenses. Manual focus, although by wire, is really nice to use and far better than the one from Olympus. On the other hand the 1:1 lens button from Olympus is fantastic for land macro photography (not usable underwater). My veredicto is that the Panasonic is a fantastic investment.

I was looking at another QRB for my New Panasonic HMC150. ... They are all a perfect fit together and I couldn't be happier! Thanks again BH..............

I took shots at dark. The camera saw what I could not. It is going to be quite useful in my underwater adventures.

I need this product in my sealife underwater camera

keeps the dreaded underwater camera fog at bay.

New camera out of the box into this to keep it like new. Love it so far.

I highly recommend this if you have an underwater camera and want to make sure you don't lose it.
