I see that there are (additionally) waterproof housings for past Contour models---will one of them work with the Contour Roam2?

Yes, the waterproof housings from the previous Roam will fit the Roam2. I made a few phone calls prior to my purchase. My son successfully used the housing snorkling with no leaks.

This kit appears similar to one that I purchased. The housing included in my kit was the standard housing with both the waterproof and skeleton doors. The housing with the waterproof door is rated waterproof to 131'. The dive housing is rated waterproof to 197'. Check the GoPro site, lots of info to be found and the tech support is great if you have an issue. http://gopro.com/

Hi Adam! Our waterproof camera floats work very well with GoPro cameras, I actually just used it recently myself with a GoPro Hero Black 3+ camera and was very happy with the results :-). The attachment process is very simple; in the bottom of your waterproof housing there is a small "steel bar hinge", in the middle of that there is a small opening (just behind the extension connector). Detach the lanyard (bottom part) of the camera float and thread it through the middle of the "steel bar hinge". The attachment process should look something like this http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/71J0dfV3TjL._SL1500_.jpg Wish I was able to upload a video showing it, would be much easier, but unfortunately that's not possible here on Amazon :-/. Please let me know if you need further instructions and I'll try to help you more :-) Have a great day! Henrik / Nordic Flash

Perry, Great question! I'm not sure, since my GoPro is a hero3. Looking at the pictures of the new model, it appears that the new version uses the same waterproof housing. If so, then it will work. If you do get a definitive answer, let me know. I plan to get an additional hero sometime soon (two's better than one, right?).

yes. it comes with a housing with 2 different backs. The water proof back is harder to hear the audio through (it is more muffled because the mic is under the housing. They also provide a non waterproof back that the audio is easy to hear. They are easy to change. The housing also has buttons on it so the camera can be operated manually while it is in either of the housings, or with the supplied remote.

Well I was thinking the same thing while looking at GoPro cameras. My thought on this was I already have the camera, housing makes it waterproof for my needs, and I can still use the camera out of the housing for day to day pictures. So I decided on the housing and not going with GoPro just yet. From a financial standpoint there was no reason to get a new setup when the camera I had works great already. I am planning on using this on my next underwater trip and will know that I am still getting a great picture for my money.

The back door that came with my touch screen is bigger than the waterproof housing that came with my GoPro 3 - it doesn't fit on my housing. I can't snap it shut, the rubber gasket is in the way on the bottom where the hinge is located, so how are others getting this to work with their existing housing???

My son has a gopro hero 3. It does come with more than one "back door" (to fit different cameras) but I couldn't tell you if one of them is for the HD Hero 2. The floaty itself it just a serperate piece of some type of floaty foam, and you use the sticky pads to attach it to a back door. So if you have more than one, or can leave it on your waterproof back door that you have, it would work either way. Once you stick it, it can't come off, unless you have several water proof tapes to use.

if you mean the waterproof housing, no unless you can attach a connector to the camera.

Contours website specifies what comes in the box for each of their cameras. With the roam no memory card is included. There are a few mounts included that are suitable for a helmet

Absolutely, there are actually rail adapters for Contours, and any Contour mount fits the entire line.Or if you don't have anyway of using a rail you can use one of the profile mounts that come in the box, it uses double sided tape

I don't remember the model number , if it is listed as the one for the Contour+2 then it works quite well.I have used mine down to 110ft without any issues.It is very easy to maintain (just one o-ring) and quite compact. I also like the fact one can see if there is any leakage, not having to rely on an electronic sensor.

This fits the Contour Roam and the Contour Roam2. I think the model 1600 is the Contour Roam, right?

Has anyone tried a Mino HD in this Underwater case? Because the Mino is smaller, I thought with some additional padding it may work. If I find a store that sells the AWC2T I'll take my Mino in and do a fit check.
