196FT Waterproof Case with Dive Filters for GoPro Hero 8 Black

I was slightly hesitant using a third party product rather than the official GoPro one in case it was not truly waterproof. Also did not want to pay GoPro prices for a case. My worries were all for nothing. This worked great for a recent trip I took which included submerging my GoPro in a few lakes and oceans. I did not take this snorkeling, therefore cannot say how well this works deeper under water and didn't use the filters that came with the case. The opening was tough to open, but keep in mind it's meant to be sealed in order to protect water from entering.

I don’t dive, but I do depend on underwater housings to protect my GoPro cameras from falls, drops and inclement weather. I did try this out in the bathtub and it didn’t leak. More importantly for me, it fits well and secures relatively easily, a boon for me and my arthritic fingers. The two cold shoes are a terrific bonus. Three GoPro mounts and a long screw are included in the package. I might use the macro lens at some point, but likely not the filters. For my rather limited use, this works well.Jerry

My son used one set while diving in Belize. The color correction was great and his fotos turned out great. I wasn’t able to take fotos, but my filter filled with water and bubbles. I would buy them again and will try mine again when we go diving.

Have only used it in the Caribbean but the red filter works great to bring out colors. Would recommend

I keep my camera in these cases most of the time for protection if dropped or it falls. My luck has been if it is not covered it will hit something there. I find this fits as well as a factory case and I like the filters and macro lens. It has only been used to about ten feet in depth and had no issues. If I needed to replace this case I would get another as I am that happy with this one.

The lens work decent, but I docked a few stars for the housing.The housing looks nice and has the addition of a couple of mounting points for lights.However, when scuba diving at depths around 60-70 feet I've noticed the housing will let a few drops of water in. This happens even after applying a bit of silicone grease on the gasket, though I'm not sure if the water is coming in from the main door or possibly one of the buttons or the lens housing.The gopro is still fairly protected as it has held up to those depths without completely flooding and I haven't had any issues with the gopro itself.

I bought it for the waterproof case but the filters are definitely a plus. It worked out for me.
