Questions & Answers

N B : Can I use this case with another camera e.g. Fuji Finepix? What other cameras apart from Lumix is Panasonic DMW-MCTZ20 compatible with?RON T : No, it fits the Panasonic camera it is designed for like a glove, and won't work even with very close siblings in the Panasonic line - so it is very unlikely that it will work with another brand..NICHOLAS H : DMW-MCTZ20 is only compatible with certain Panasonic Lumix ZS-series cameras. The interior is form-fit to these cameras and the operating buttons which extend through the case are positioned uniquely for these Lumix ZS cameras.
Josie P : Hi, I am thinking about buying the underwater case. But I am wondering, how deep can the Panasonic DMC-TZ20 in water?BRIAN P : From my understanding, this housing is good down to about 144'. I used it for snorkeling in Curacao and it was fantastic. If you follow the directions, and do what your supposed to do...you will really like this equipment. Its not hard to maintain and it works as advertised. I really was able to take some fantastic pics underwater and get some video too. One thing is that the lens can collect water drops, especially when coming out of water. Just make sure to wipe it before going in and after coming out. I rinsed mine each time I came out of the water. Had no issues at all. As a matter of fact, you may want to buy the Kodak wrist strap (I bought it for floatation), its an extra 12 bucks.AIDA K : I am a dive master and took it down to 49.5 meters. I love it!!!! No problems at all. Have been using it last 3 years.ANDREW R : Depth rating 40m / 130ft <a href="http://www.adorama.com/IPCDMWMCTZ20.html#specs" target="_blank">http://www.adorama.com/IPCDMWMCTZ20.html#specs</a>

Excellent marine case

I use this for the DMC-ZS8. I have taken down to 110 feet with no issues. All functions accessible with the housing. I use both weights for slight negative buoyancy. I have taken pictures and movies and they have turned out fine. No issues with zoom lens hitting housing as mentioned in previous reviews but I use a different camera than that reviewer. This housing is specified for the DMC-ZS8 among other cameras. Flash diffuser works well and is removable. Clear instructions and comes with spare o-ring and silicone lube. Cheaper than the Ikelite housing for the same camera. Ikelites are excellent but for the price this is a fantastic housing.

Awesome Product!

I purchased this for my Lumix ZS15. I snorkeled in the ocean for 10 days and did some diving. The camera fit in the case perfectly. The case came with all the items you would need. I read the manual (so should you) and followed the directions and never had a problem. I snorkeled everyday for 10 days and would dive down to about 20 feet or so and take pics. Not only were the pics clear, the case itself with the buttons..its just so easy to use. I cannot say enough good things about this. Its not clunky under water, and I would snorkel for an hour at a time. When I was done, I would rinse off as suggested, remove camera, and take pics the rest of the time until I was ready to go out in the ocean again...I am so glad I spent the money on this...I was on the fence, but after reading so many reviews on other items...I decided to dive into this and I absolutely do not regret it. If you are on the fence and thinking about a differet product...forget it..get this one!

Pleased

This is the 2nd Panasonic camera and housing I have owned. Camera and housing work well together. I can access every camera control easily while diving. Recommended.

Bought this for TZ25

After speaking to a few people I found that this was the correct housing for my TZ25 even though it was designed for a different model. I Found the adorama site through amazon and was amazed by the savings to be made on the housing. Fast and speedy service and an excellent delivery schedule. On the downside anyone buying from the uk beware of import duty, the extra £48 charge brought this close to the cost it could have been purchased nearer home. However, very happy with my purchase and when I'm in New York I will most definitely pay the store a visit.

Totally as advertised

This case fits my ZS-10 like a glove, and all camera functions are fully accessable. So far I've only been able to do the basic tests but will give it a full workout in Hawaii soon.

Worked perfectly

I used this product snorkling on the Great Barrier Reef and in Figi. The pictures came out beautifully and I had no problems with the housing or my camera. I discovered that when I used the flash the colors in the coral and fish were greatly enhanced.
