READ MY REVIEW if you are hesitant on buying
Was hesitant to use this but I bought a platinum warranty on my camera so I was covered either way should it flood.I took this scuba diving in the florida keys with my Nikon d3300 camera with a 18-55 lens. First off the pouch fit very well and wasn't difficult at all to set it up. the controls are all pretty easy to reach with the finger holes.The manual says this goes to about 30 feet and that's exactly how deep I took it. What you'll notice the deeper you go the less and less air you'll have in the case and it will start suctioning to your camera making it skin tight. If you went much farther than 30 feet I would be afraid of damage to your camera with how tight the casing gets. Make sure to trap as much air in the bag before going down so you have more leeway.The pictures came out great. Unfortunately I had my camera on the wrong settings underwater so the white balance is way off making everything blue and not that colorful but I left two pictures to show you guys that the pictures are still very clear and not ruined by the lens. One in water and one on land.If you are planning on going deeper than 30 ft or really like to mess with the setting a lot I would recommend getting one of those pricey fixed casings as when the case suctions to the camera it restricts movement.If you're hesitant go ahead a shoot me any questions. I'm very satisfied with this and the extremely cheap price compared to most waterproof cases.*****last note for scuba divers the air in the camera bag will offset some of your weight so you may need extra weights to allow you to actually sink when using this. I had to add another five pounds I think.

Perfect for non-professionals going diving or snorkeling!
The headline says it all. It's easy to use, with both knobs and a ziplock to keep the camera dry inside. It's perfect those those with a lower-end "hobby" DSLR camera they want to use when snorkeling on, say, the Great Barrier Reef. For sure this is compatible with the NIKON D3000-39000 set.

Good for Small
Use a good med or small camera so you have room. I love this for my small camera

The plastic front lens distorts the image, needs to be larger for Z6 and 24-70 F2.8S
If the front lens were made of glass, this case would have been great. I was trying to use it with a Z6 and a 24-70 F2.8S lens and it kind of fits, but it is not long enough to allow full zoom, and it is very difficult to access the zoom ring because the lens tube is so small. It needs to be about an inch longer and an inch wider in diameter. Also the shutter release finger glove pocket thing's seam needs to be rotated so that the seam doesn't rest against the shutter release button. Oh, and since the front isn't attached to your lens, it can block your lens because it is just flapping around. I ended up returning it and buying ASIN B07MPVGW1H which costs 10 times as much, but it uses a glass front port that screws to your filter threads, and you can use any lens you want to (better than those thousand dollar dedicated cases). You can also access almost all your controls using that case.

Will keep your camera dry, difficult to adjust settings in the bag (ISO, F-stop, Focus), best if used with auto shooting mode.
I bought this product so that I could shoot from my canoe without worrying about dropping it in the water or it getting splashed. I don't doubt that it would work to that end, so as a dry bag, totally effective. The problem comes when its time to shoot. There are several things that made this problematic. First off the rubber ring they provide that goes over the end of the camera lens, got caught up in the manual focus ring, making it impossible for me to focus with it on. The finger holes provided are placed well, but are still difficult to use. My camera has a press-able track wheel that you use to got through menu functions. Using the finger holes, it was impossible for me to move the track wheel around, without accidentally pressing the track button itself. Because of the difficulty adjusting settings on the camera this product would probably be best suited for a camera with fully automatic shooting modes and auto focus lenses. Another problem for me was that the bag is huge, this may be fine for a larger DSLR camera, but I use a Sony A6000, which left a lot of wiggle room and made it difficult to keep the lens in the lens tube. The tube itself is very long, which is nice if you are using a longer lens, I was using a 50mm lens and had difficulty getting the lens window on the bag to touch the end of the lens itself. I guess this is not necessary, but I imagine your best images would come from having your lens as close to the lens window as possible. This would probably be a lot easier with the bag submerged because the water pressure would keep things nice and tight in the bag, so perhaps this is an operator error. Lastly one of the three cams that lock the bag shut fell out while using the bag, and was subsequently lost. I still feel the bag closed securely with just the two, but nothing holds the locking cams in place if they are not in the locked position, so they can just fall out. Bottom line is that you have a better chance of shooting out of this bag than just a regular dry bag, so if you absolutely need to waterproof your camera and still be able to shoot this product may work for you. I ended up just taking the camera out of the bag when I wanted to shoot and putting it back when I was done to protect it when not in use.

Lens port easily scratches
My lens scratched up the inside of the glass on lens port to the point where I can’t get a clear image anymore
