5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!, November 18, 2009

I was happy to find this case on Amazon. The only other place I found it was online at the flip store and it was $50 on that site. When it arrived, the first thing I did was a tissue test. Put some toilet paper inside and made sure there was no debris on the seal, then submerged it in the kitchen sink for a while. Tissue was dry, and so we were off to test this puppy in the pool at the YMCA. It worked great! I had to take the strap off of my flip for it to fit, but this case does come with a yellow strap that you can add to it. It floats, so no need for dive for your flip if you lose your grip. As another reviewer mentioned, make sure you have the right cam to fit this case. I see reviews of people that have bought the 1st gen watercase to fit the 2nd gen ultra hd's and giving bad reviews. There is not a way to attach this to a tripod that I can tell, and the hinge at the bottom of the case prevents it from standing up on its own. You will need to capture footage with someone holding it, or find a clever way to prop it up. I think if you are dilligent about checking the seal with each use, your flip will be fine. It states in the instructions that even one grain of sand, or a single strand of hair can cause leaks. I am exicited for next summer to enjoy this in our backyard pool, and the water rides at Cedar Point!

This is a very good case - worked just fine, did not leak water and all buttons worked well. Have some great videos now. One thing - always make sure you get the correct case for your camcorder - there are several different types available.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works fine but flawed design, January 11, 2010

There's little doubt that the folks at Flip have revolutionized the point & click pocket size HD video market. Kudos to them for that. As with all new products there's always room for improvement. This underwater case works just fine but, in my humble opinion, based upon two other point & click waterproof cases I own this particular case has a minor nuisance design flaw. The flaw is that the camera's wrist strap must be removed before the case can be used because the case is not designed in such a way that the wrist strap can be enclosed in the case. I consider this a design flaw only because I own two other point & click underwater camera cases and they both have room to enclose the camera's wrist strap. If you're in a pinch and want to use this case, you'll need to have a toothpick or earring handy to remove the camera's wrist strap. Had Flip designed this case in such a manner that the camera's wrist strap could be safely enclosed then I think it warrants five stars. It is hoped that subsequent issues of this product will result in a design change making it just a little bit better.
