Hello, is the camera sold with the waterproof protection ? Thanks

There is a waterproof housing but it is not very substantial. Mfgr's typically will not warranty a dive camera unless there is an obvious defect as the responsibility for keeping the seal clean and lubricated is on the user. Don't go cheap, buy an ikelite housing and you will be glad you did for years to come. I am on about 5 years with mine, I clean and lube the seal before every week long dive trip and have never had a problem. I hope this helps

Yes. And the camera works great for me. Haven't had the problems others have reported, but I am pretty good about taking care of things. Here is a video I took with the camera at 110'.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYe_O-Nf47IWorks good for me. Definitely worth the money!

Yes it does. I have used it down to 50 feet with no problems. Other than using a lot of batteries it is a great deal for the price. Take lots of batteries with you.

Yes, it has a waterproof case. However, you do NOT want to buy this camera. The first one I got did not work and I sent it back to the manufacturer. They sent me a new one. It did not work either. This camera is garbage. I recommend the SeaLife Mini II. More expensive but works perfectly.

The plastic case is the water proof protection. You need to grease the o ring before each use to help it seal. Camera is ok for a beginner and will take pictures and video underwater with no problem down to depths of 50 feet. Anything deeper starts to have color fade due to light issues. This depends on clarity of water you are in also. Have used this camera for one year with no issues.

I don't think so. It does not say anywhere that the camera is waterproof...I wont take chance to use it under rain. GOOD LUCK

Yes, it is waterproof. However, it snaps a lot of nothing shots. The battery compartment got a bunch of some type of bugs in it while out in the woods.

I've never used the flash when the camera is wet, but I believe it is waterproof.

The camera is weather proof on its own. The box is more just for security. I didn't read the post that stated rain ruined their camera but they either had a defect in the outter molded shell or didn't have it closed properly. I bought the box for security (I had my 1st camera stolen) and it is heavy duty and works great.

It was a new, in the box camera. We did have some issues with the waterproof statements. However, when it stopped working, Kodak replaced it with a new camera. Thus far, we have not fully tested the replacement.

Yes the lens it comes with is waterproof, be sure to follow after water use instructions (particularly with salt water $

No it is not. The camera is the best I have used. Love the photos but I do keep it in a sealed baggie to prevent dust from getting into the camera so I would think water would really be a problem.

The camera is water proof. I have used one for my work in harsh environments for some time now, and it is an excellent camera. Due to this, I bought one for my son.

My opinion is no. It didn't work for me. I wasted my money on the camera, memory card, and my entire pictures from my trip. I would not recommend buying this "waterproof" camera.

It is in fact waterproof; however, the picture quality stinks. The quality is like when the first digital cameras came out with like 1.5 pix. I wouldn't recommend you buying this camera.

Its a great inexpensive camera with a ton of features. Nope it's not waterproof.

The only stupid question is the one not asked. It came with the waterproof case and the camera. When I purchased it I was a little skeptical as well because the description was a little vague.

I bought the Overboard because I'd had a camera ruined when wind swamped my canoe. When I received the Overboard, I put that camera (a couple of months later) into it and ran a sink full of water. I submerged the Overboard and left it there for an hour or so. When I took the camera out of the case at the end of its soak, it was perfectly dry. That doesn't mean it's waterproof, for example, if you took it skin diving. I do think, though, that it would protect your camera from something like an accidental drop in the lake, retrieved fairly quickly.

The camera is somewhat weather-proof but not exactly waterproof. It can withstand getting a bit wet in the rain or some splashes in a kayak but if it were submerged in the water, it will almost certainly get ruined.

The Cameras for the most part are waterproof. I put silicone grease on the power and video connectors. I have had them over six months outdoors in the rain and snow with no problems.
