SeaLifeSportDiver & Sea Dragon 2500 Package

So easy to use. So easy to switch from photo to video. So easy to review your pictures. No downloading from SD card, saves right to your iPhone photo library.After 4 G0PR0s, it was amazing to be able to take still shots without being perfectly still. I used to take mostly video, now 90% are stills and the quality is fantastic.Although the biggest game changer for me was the light. The colors are so much more vivid.Only negative I found was that the light is actually too bright during a night dive, even on the low setting. The light field is very broad compared to other dive lights. Which is good and bad.Also, might get a second battery for the light. If you keep it on for an entire 60 minute dive it won’t last through a second dive. I wound up turning it off to conserve the battery.But overall would buy again, and highly recommend it.

The media could not be loaded. I was very pleasantly pleased with this purchase. It is a bit of a task to get it set up prior to the dive, especially with everything that’s usually going on before the first dive, but it’s doable for sure. Once under, it was effortless to use. It’s very intuitive and I had no problems switching between functions even while diving through the tightest swim throughs. The light was bright on the night dive and helped create some unbelievably good photos and videos. We’ll worth the investment!!My only complaint is the clip that attaches the wristband. It is cheap plastic that doesn’t really fit well to the camera loop. It actually comes unattached very easily and that happened to me twice on my first dive. I was lucky to be able to retrieve it. I used a different attachment for it after that and am very surprised it came with such a cheap attachment. That was disappointing.

We decided to upgrade our dive/snorkel solution from our GoPro. To be fair the GoPro3 worked well but it needed to be upgraded. We decided to go to the SeaLife as it uses a mobile phone and we are very happy with our iPhone features and the fact we upgrade every few years. This camera case worked flawless. Very happy.

I really wanted to like this setup, seemed like the perfect travel gear for trips where I couldn't justify taking my big rig with me but unfortunately I am returning. Samsung does not allow use of all 3 cameras from the S22 ultra with the sport diver software. Not the fault of sea life but good to know for anyone else. Also of the 2 cameras the app can use only the 1.8F camera has full field of view, the other wide angle lens is partially blocked by the case. Sea Life cannot control that but when they list the S22 Ultra as compatible on their website they should call that out.All that aside I am sure it will get great pictures, however the sport diver software is absolute crap. It might be different for iphone users but on my S22 Ultra I took about 100 test pictures when I got the unit and on the dive boat without issue. Jump into the water for the only dive I wanted to capture (night diving with the Kona Manta's) and the software locked up after 1 second of video. It continued to show the video feed but would not record, change mode, zoom, etc. There is absolutely no way to reset that software under the water when something happens and that is a huge miss in design, hence why it's going back. Finally there is no way to charge the phone without removing from the case. To me this is a huge issue between dives because a dive boat is the last place you want to opening a case on, finding a plug, charging the phone while out of it's normal protective case, and then getting everything back together.Sea Life makes good products and my dive buddies have had great results with the more traditional models but sadly this one misses the mark for me.Side note, the protective cases the light and camera case come in are nice but they are bulky and will take-up alot of room in your luggage. It really didn't save me any space in my carry-on vs my Olympus case and strobes I normally travel with.

I got this camera to use for a recent trip to Bonaire. I was hesitant because I didn’t know if I wanted to chance putting my new iPhone in it to use. But I am so glad I did! The camera worked perfect and the pictures turned out great!

Bought from third party and realized only after attempting to use underwater housing on a dive trip in Roatan that the product was obviously previously used. Took to 20 feet and leak alarm immediately activated. I ascended to get phone and housing out of water. No water was visible or appreciable in housing when opened after returning to my hotel. iPhone was completely dry. Could not get housing alarm to turn off despite resetting on/off button to housing and replacing batteries. I researched issue based on SeaLife troubleshooting literature found online. None of the other troubleshooting maneuvers stopped the alarm. Upon careful further inspection, the water sensor in the lower right aspect of housing appeared visibly damaged with a rust like discoloration in spots. Interestingly, the housing came with protective screen shield already in place. Based on these observations, it is clear that a used product was sold by this seller advertised as new. I have heard very good things about this housing but would be cautious about purchase from this particular third party seller.

Great camera case for your IPhone for diving
