So you've got yourself this neat little camera. Small enough to slide into your pocket and take anywhere. Just one tiny problem though. Half the places you want to take it - and also take photos with it - there's horrid substances like water or dust or dirt or sand. Stuff that your camera really isn't going to thank you for exposing it to. Stuff that's capable of ruining your beloved little treasure in a heartbeat.

That's where the Aquapac comes in. Once your camera is safely tucked up inside it you'll be able to take your camera - and take your photos - wherever you want to go and whatever you like to get up to. And capture all those unmissable memories.

They make great gifts too. Perfect cases for outdoor places!

All the details...
  • It's guaranteed submersible to 15 feet (5 metres).
  • You can take great photographs right through the LENZFLEX windows (see below). Even underwater.
  • The Mini Camera Case (code 404) is compatible with most non-zoom compact cameras.
  • It'll float with your camera in it.
  • The UV-stabilized TPU material won't be broken down or discoloured by sunlight.
  • It keeps out dust and sand too. They're a particular problem for cameras (just ask the repairman at your local camera store).

Special Note:
To get the best photos through Aquapac cases, here are some tips:

  • Try to avoid flash photography, but if you do need to use a flash, pull the case tight over the flash area so the light doesn't bounce back over the lens
  • Make sure the Aquapac lens is pulled close to your camera's lens
  • Keep the lens window clean and avoid scratching it
  • Underwater photography requires clear water and good light
  • Some autofocus cameras cannot cope with underwater photos due to particles in the water - test a few shots with your camera first

Submersion Note:
Be extremely careful if you plan to shoot underwater. Although with the clip sealed it is completely waterproof, the quick-action lever system means you could inadvertently knock a lever open underwater. It was conceived for surface use and to protect against accidental immersion.

Sizing chart

Supplied with:
Desiccant sachet (to absorb condensation in humid areas
T-bar carry cord.

Supplied with...
  • It comes with an adjustable neckcord so you can hang it round your neck.
  • It comes with a packet of 5 re-usable, re-indicating desiccant sachets. These will help absorb any condensation in the air inside the case. If you know you're going to be taking it somewhere particularly humid like Jacksonville or the jungle, you'd be well advised to buy a few extra packets.
  • It comes with Aquapac's 3-year global warranty (see 'Buy with confidence' below).
Recent improvements...

2008 sees Aquapac going '100% PVC-Free'. The new material (TPU) offers a number of advantages:

  • It's softer and more malleable. Making it even easier to operate your camera controls through the material.
  • It'll perform much better if you want to take it somewhere really cold. It'll still be soft and malleable at -40º and below.
  • It has a greater tensile strength, meaning it's even more difficult to tear or rip apart.
Sizing guide...

The Mini Camera Case (code 404) fits most small digital cameras without a zoom lens. To make sure you choose the right case check out the Size Guide. If your camera body is very small but has a zoom lens, you will probably be better off with the Small Compact Camera Case with Hard Lens.

What stops the water getting in?

The patented Aquaclip® seals the case - with a simple twist of a couple of levers. It's been tested to the toughest international waterproofing standards.

Will I really get good photos through the plastic?

Yes! The special flexible lens material we use to make the lens windows is called LENZFLEX. It's optically-clear. You get a LENZFLEX window on either side of the case, so you can use your camera either way round. And the sturdy but flexible material allows you to operate all the camera controls.

Ok, not every photo is going to be perfect. But we're all used to that aren't we! Most of the time nobody will be able to tell you were using a case.

What Aquapac customers are saying...

"I just purchased two of your products for a recent trip to the Caribbean, and I just wanted to say how wonderful your camera case is! We were able to take some amazing pictures while snorkeling!"
Shelley Oliver, USA

What the Press are saying...

"The Aquapac is light and tough. The easiest waterproofing you can buy."
The Mail on Sunday, UK

Who's buying?...

This Aquapac case is for the serious photographer who wants to protect their camera without completely disabling it within a rigid case.

More than just a good idea...

Great photos through the case, waterproof protection from the elements, floats if dropped overboard... a winning combination.
