Brave 7 Waterproof Case for AKASO Brave 7 Action Camera

Really nice camera when you don't want to break the bank. Used on 20 dives around Socorro Islands and got fantastic results filming manta rays and sharks. Easy to use and make make adjustments underwater. Compact size was perfect and I just stuffed it in the zipper of my wetsuit when getting out of the water.

Excelent fit.

Perfect! Just what we wanted to add extra protection to our camera for our water sports and excursions.

When used with the Akaso Brave 7 w/Anba update, it allows to switch between photo and video, switching between front and back display. Thus allowing it be used in most general scuba diving situations. One thing it does not allow is to switch the filter mode, thus I cannot switch between Diving mode and Normal, which would be required when switching between natural and video light. I did 18 dives, often to 110ft with no leak, but the case seems to be a bit flexible, causing the rear clear cover to push against the camera's display, which is clearly visible when the camera's display is off. I don't know if that exerts extra stress on the camera. I installed the camera in a dry environment, so there is no issue with fogging when diving in 72-75 F water with intermittent shooting of video. The lens port is the whole front of the housing, instead of just the section where the lens is. It offers no protection to the lens area and is probably harder to use lens sized filter.

We purchased this for a snorkeling trip to the Bahamas. Easy to use and works great. Never fogged up. I would familiarize yourself wth your camera settings before using this. You will have limited functionality in the buttons. The case did not effect the sound. We will had underwater sound while snorkeling.

First time I used it the power/record button flew out of the top. I caught a spring, an o-ring, a plastic plate and the metal plunger. I did my best to keep everything together, but it was on my daughters paddle board so.... she got to shore, flipped the board and never looked back. I picked her up on the other side of the lake, asked her for the camera and all the button parts were missing. Opened the case took the camera out, assessed the water inside, the camera was fine, and I found the culprit, a c-clip that worked its way loose or was never tight. I have initiated an exchange, I'll update how it goes.

Obviously fits my Brave 7 like a glove. Definitely shuts and seals very tight. Latch takes a lot more force to open and close than the normal open housings. Buttons and touch screen all worked perfectly. I haven't used it for scuba yet but I snorkeled for like an hour with it with no issues. No degradation of image quality or anything either. I had a different camera that had hazing and aberrations when you put it in the waterproof housing, but no problems here. Would recommend.

Does the job. I purchased this for my Brave 7 camera, for added water proofness. So far, no leakage issues. It works well for snorkeling but limits some of the functions on the touch screen of the camera. I wouldn't use it for shallow snorkeling as the camera by itself is still waterproof and you have access to all the functions. This case is great if you plan on snorkeling the deep stuff or just being submerged for extended periods.

Bereits das zweite Gehäuse. Das erste ging nach Tauchgang 25 am Verschluss zu Bruch. War wohl etwas zu viel Spannung von Anfang an drauf. Mit einem guten Haargummi aber während des Urlaubs noch verschlossen, die Dichtungen waren top. Kostenloser Ersatz aber nach Rekla! Super Kontakt, freundlich und entgegenkommend. Die Kamera war ständig geschützt, kein Eindringen von Wasser auch auf 30m, kein Anlaufen, somit sehr gute Bilder. Hier kommt es nicht aufs Gehäuse an, eher dann auf die Farbkorrektur. Das liegt nie am Gehäuse. 😂

Le boîtier en lui-même est très bien, mais la caméra a fonctionné 1 semaine à peine... j'ai donc dû tout renvoyer et finir mes 2 semaines de vacances en Polynésie Française sans caméra... Très mauvaise expérience et je suis content d'être passé par Amazon car les discussions avec le SAV de la marque sont stériles. Amazon est très réactif en revanche.

Usata fino a 35 mt senza problemi. Aggiornamento: Dopo due mesi, e quasi un trentina di immersioni, posso confermare che la tenuta è ottima. Posso segnalare che l'anello, che tiene il gancio della chiusura, tende a sfilarsi o piegarsi. Bisogna stare un pò attenti nella chiusura, per non rovinarlo. Non so se è così per tutti o difetto della mia. Altra cosa che ho segnalato, sarebbe utile la possibilità di agganciare/sganciare con facilità un filtro esterno (rosso), per compensare l mancanza del colore durane le immersioni.

Bit fiddly to get the camera in but seems pretty sealed when in, only tried it once and didn't go much below 10m so didn't really test it.
