Underwater Compact Camera 2017

I purchased this video specifically because Canon makes a compact underwater housing for it. The housing instructions tell you how to set the camera for underwater, and although the instructions were a bit vague, and Canon support was not helpful, it is a one time adjustment. I just got back from first dive trip with it and the underwater colors were about as natural as watching Planet Earth. It did well on large animals, like dolphins, and equally well on all but the tiny macro stuff. The bright screen setting enabled me to see the LCD panel easily underwater. I used the camera with a Lite Cannon 100 underwater light and a diffuser for overhangs and darker days. Overall, I have never been this happy with an underwater camera.

This camera does everything you need a compact camera to do. It won't replace your 300mm pro glass, but will do everything else. I bought this for underwater photography, a crazy demanding application from a lighting and dynamic range standpoint. The G7X Mark II did way more than I could have expected. The only complaint I have is that the CR2 raw files are not backwards compatible with existing Photoshop software. I imagine the definitions will be updated soon.

Bought for use with compact underwater camera on snorkeling trip. Strap, although slightly large, was easy to slip on wrist, and stayed in place with no issues. Will keep smaller cameras buoyant, and will help locate larger ones. Simple to operate camera with same hand to which strap was attached.

I bought this housing because I wanted to use a good compact Sony camera to capture underwater wildlife. I was frustrated with the GoPro and unimpressive still photos. The housing allows use of all buttons on the camera and functions that allow quality pictures underwater. I have included pictures from my first time use in Kona Hawaii. Make your own conclusions from my experience. I highly recommend this housing.

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

I tested several lenses for wide angle underwater photography and so far this is the best by far... It is very light and compact for one and the pictures are so crisp and clear.

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