GoPro or DicaPac there's a quick video review for the DicaPac WP s10 for my
Sony a7r 3. A bit of back story, I'm in the Philippines right now I bought this
waterproof case for my Sony a7r 3 cuz here there's plenty of snorkeling spots
and I just wanted to take some nice videos and photos underwater
I checked a lot of stuff on YouTube and Amazon and I found these dicapac
waterproof back and I thought it could be a good solution for what I was
looking for now there's not much to review I think this is a waste of time
and money straight away to be honest I just tested E right here in this little
spot nice clear water and it's just useless I mean a tiny bit on my
background content producer so that's what I'd you know I take videos and
photos as a living and this thing probably would take me I don't know how
long to practice and master and I don't have time to go underwater and spend a
week just to practice how to you know spin the wheels and the zoom wheels and
the focus wheels and that kind of stuff it's just not practical at all you've
got three holes one for the shutter button and you've got two on the lens
just to spin the wheels around okay the positive things probably - it was
waterproof Wow how surprising I probably went 50
centimeters and the water and yeah no leaks or anything no drops inside which
is great for a waterproof case and second positive thing was as you have a
quite big well I have a Sony 16 to 35 G master lens it's quite wide and if you
want to get those shots where you can see how
under water enough above the water well it's probably more achievable with this
than with the GoPro curse the GoPro is a tiny lens as you can imagine so it's
definitely easier to to balance this halfway than the tiny lens of the GoPro
if you know what I mean these are the only two positive things I
found on this case first impression the camera shakes inside it's not very
stable you've got some pads here so to lift your camera or put it a tiny bit
lower but still it moves around I use the lens 1635 the G master wide open so
a 16 millimeter and when you do so basically your lens is fully extended
now this is the WPS 10 which allows to use a lens of more or less 15 centimeter
long and that's exactly my lens right here but the problem is when I want to
use it when they use my last 16 millimeters which is again extended the
lens would eventually hit this and with a bit of movement they will bring my
lens back to 35 like squeezing it back like that and you can't really use these
two fingers or it's just I think they just useless to be honest also guys if
you use a lens like mine 16 millimeters and you keep it wide open you see the
actual cup of the D cap at creating lot of vignetting again kind of useless
because you need to crop in after so it's like having a 20 25 millimeter on
another another negative aspect of this tool is I try to go underwater and this
Krim protector basically doesn't allow you to see anything it will stick to
your camera monitor and I mean there's a lot of reflections from the light coming
you know coming from above the water so again you don't know what you're doing
completely use this I bought this being on Amazon for sixty-five pounds and I'm
gonna return it because it's useless and if you're not professional anyway and
you're not very practical with camera gear you don't want to spend a month
just practicing with this with this tool it's just useless so for the purpose you
need underwater for your GoPro is the best Arusha you make sure you drop
something with this anyway but if you have a nice fish or something you want
to grab but by the time here set up your shot there the fish is long time God so
well I'm sorry I didn't really family so I can't really show you any footage but
that's my opinion and my first impression about this ridiculous tool
right here also very mind goes when you close this thing down when you seal it
there would be a lot of air inside and there will make you struggle going
underwater with the case as you can see from the images you really need to push
down and it will eventually bring you up as well so again not not a good use for
a waterproof case I guess but you get what you pay for so that I wouldn't
really spend the time and the money in buying this thing and I hope the video
kind of helped you in making up your mind in buying or not the case but for
me it's a note again and I'm gonna send it back very soon alright guys I hope to
see in the next videos actually check my playlist from the Philippines if you're
interested in visiting the country it's amazing check it out god bless thanks
