I bought the Fuji Aquamask to take with us on vacation to the beach this summer. While I thought it would be fun to try to take pictures underwater I really just wanted it to protect my A610 from sand, suntan lotion, and the occasional spray of salt water. But once I got on the beach I just had to take it into the water. It's a leap of faith to submerge your electronics into the sea and hope that the Aquamask will protect it but this product worked very well in the range it was designed for. I had great fun snapping pics of fish, shells, and other underwater treasures. The controls all worked perfectly and easily. The one problem I had was that condensation formed inside the shell due to the difference in temperature between the water and the air inside the mask. Not so much that it distorted my pics but it did alter the contrast as it looked a little like fog. An easy fix in most picture editing programs. I recommend the Aquamask as it adds to the fun of taking pictures and provides lots of protection in outdoor venues.

we used this on our trip to punta cana, DR. i used it in the sea, the pool and when we went snorkeling. it worked very well and took great pictures. a MUST HAVE for anyone who wants their camera near (in)the water.

It's clear and easy to use. The buttons are easier to use than I expected. Unfortunately, in bright sunlight, the aquamask makes it even harder to see the view finder (always a problem with digital cameras in bright light).

The manual is good, but has too many warnings.

This is worth owning if only to protect your camera when you travel to humid and rainy areas. I have used mine for years and the seal has never leaked. I have made sure to keep it clean but I have travelled with it for over eight months in Asia over a period of many years. It has been in the water on snorkeling trips for what must be easily over a hundred hours. It is a great product. I even bought a second gasket ring that I travel with just in case but have never used it. Fuji makes great cameras and this compliments it well. I have taken so many great pictures with this combo and many of them have not been in the water. I actually keep it in the housing for regular pictures as well depending on the environment. Even those come out great. I have to give you the caveat that I never go under water with it more than say five feet. I can't tell you how it will hold up in deeper water although the specs already tell you that you can't really go much more that a few meters anyway. If you want something to dive with, this is not for you. If you just want a good snorkeling camera, I highly recommend it.

I got this mainly to use around the pool and beach to proctect my camera. I absolutely love it! It works great. I have used it under water a few times and the pictures came out good too. I have small children so I mainly use it at the pool so I can walk around the spray park or have my camera in the pool with me and not worry about it getting wet or damaged. It is very easy to use and the pictures come out great. We have saved a bundle in disposable waterproof cameras since I can simply use my digital camera. I would absoutley recomment this case.

I got the camera free with credit card points and bought this to protect it. It has been in saltwater, smashed against rocks and left for dead many times. I have beat this case to a pulp and, after a few years, I finally managed to nick the lens area ever so slightly to the point that I need to get a new case. The camera remains in pristine shape thanks to this box. Still deciding if I should get a different camera before I buy another case but I highly recommend this case.

I was a little skeptical about this item when ordering and more so when it didn`t list the Fuji A900 as one it fitted. But it fit perfectly and solved my problem of getting water in my camera while fishing. Very easy to install camera in mask and to remove. Completely waterproof so far. Have taken several pictures with mask on camera and can`t tell any difference when taking one with camera out of mask. Would recommend this for any fisherman or anyone else that`s near water with a Fujifilm camera.

I bought this product for my daughter for Christmas. She was thrilled to get it because she thought no one would pay the $80. You had this product at a much cheaper price with free shipping which fitted my budget better. It was easy to order and arrived in a few days. I was very pleased with your handling of my order and prompt arrival of my purchase.
