Sony SPK-SA Sports Pack Carrying Case for Son S60, S80 and S90 Reviews

Customer Ratings:

The main reason i wanted it was to protect the camera, and thats exactly what it does, the only problem is that it went from being tiny, to a beastly thing, it has alot more perks than downfalls, the main downfalls is that its big, it cuts out the red eye controller, and you cant use the viewfinder, and having to take it out of it and put it back in for batteries and the memory card... the upside to this is that the red eye controller is blinding and not that useful most of the time, nobody uses a viewfinder because of the 2.5 inch monitor, and who cares if its monsterous, the screen or the lens cant be damaged, and if your out in any weather condition its untouchable, and is a little hassle for alot of saving in time and money. its worth buying if you dont care what it looks like.

Just bought the case and have tried it out a few times. The pictures turned out wonderful and I don't have any concerns about using it to a depth of 9m. It seems very well made. One gripe I have is the view finder is 75% covered up. This may not seem like a big deal but when you are underwater, with goggles on it is very difficult to see the lcd screen depending on the lighting conditions. It is however very easy to see through the 25% of the view finder that is not covered. It is bulky but that's expected. My other concern is that it doesn't have a lens cover so I am worried about getting scratches. Otherwise I am very happy with it.

Honest reviews on Sony SPK-SA Sports Pack Carrying Case for Son S60, S80 and S90

i was hesitant about the 10 ft depth limits of this waterproof case and its general durability. I went camping near the Gulf of Mexico, taking my camera in this case along with it. I basically wanted this case to waterproof my camera so i could take my camera out on the jetski with me out on and into the saltwater. Worked perfectly. My camera stayed bone dry in the case the whole time, no problems. All of the functions of the camera were easily accessed while the camera was in the case all weekend. easy to use too. i highly recommend this case, and will 5-star rate it once i assure this case's longevity.

Update: After SEVEN years of usage, this case still works well. Happy to give it 5 stars!

I bought this in March when it was on sale for only $25 through Amazon! I do not recommend buying this product directly from Sony because it's $100. And for $100, I would never even think about buying it.

Anyway, I finally got to put it to good use (although I've tinkered around with it in the past) just recently on a trip down the Oregon coast. I put it under water and took some photos and they came out pretty cool. It also protected the camera from sand when we went to the sand dunes. When you are done using it for the day all you have to do is rinse it out with water and then put the little spacer on it when you are done to prevent the rubber band from wear and tear, let it dry, and you are ready to use it again.

Overall I recommend buying it if you are worried about taking your camera to certain places where something may damage it: for example rain, sand, and snow. The only bad thing about it is that it does make the camera a bit bigger but hey, it does its job. Also you have to double check everytime when you put your camera inside to make sure the rubber seal is positioned correctly, otherwise your camera may get ruined. That's one other thing that I didn't really like-the fact that the only thing seperating your camera from water is a thin little rubber band. So you should ALWAYS inspect that little thing really carefully. Also, you can't use the viewfinder because it is blocked. But nobody uses that anyway when you have an lcd screen in front of your face.

It comes with a tube of grease, an adjustable carrying strap, and antifog solution. For $25 it was a steal! I probably wont end up using this much though and that's good too since I didn't pay much for it anyway. But I'm glad that I have one! And you will be too.
