Buying Flip Video AWC2T Underwater Case for UltraHD and Ultra 2nd Generation camcorders (Clear)


For the price, you can't really beat this. It's got decent construction, and works relatively well in shallow water.

My only reservations were that that when I'd put it under water, I'd see air bubbles coming from the case. Now when I see air escaping, I tend to imagine water entering. Whenever I removed the camera from the case, I never actually saw any leaks or any water on the unit, but it just makes me question the long term viability of such a case, which is why I returned the unit.

Also, this is something that probably can't be helped, but I wish that the mic would work better above surface. Obviously that's probably not possible due to the fact you have to keep everything out, including sound, so I didn't dock stars for that, but I wish you could record audio better.

Bottom line: for the price it works pretty well, I'm just concerned about the long term viability of such a case, and there's a pretty high price to pay if there are such doubts.Get more detail about Flip Video AWC2T Underwater Case for UltraHD and Ultra 2nd Generation camcorders (Clear).
