The included camera strap is functional but we replaced it with a better camera strap that we had from a previous Sony underwater housing. One other note, the housing is quite positively buoyant. Definitely better than the other way around but I might eventually add a small weight so that it's closer to neutrally buoyant.

The included camera strap is functional but we replaced it with a better camera strap that we had from a previous Sony underwater housing. One other note, the housing is quite positively buoyant. Definitely better than the other way around but I might eventually add a small weight so that it's closer to neutrally buoyant.
The main reasons I upgraded to this housing were:
1. The lever shutter button. On the previous case I had the regular button and half the time it got stuck and I was unable to take a picture, this was by far the number one annoyance I had with that case.
With this housing I'm able to take a picture 95% of the time and able to use the half click focus about 40% of the time.
2. The black flash blocker that doesn't cause a huge amount of backscatter (my previous case was completely transparent, but on newer models of the Chinese brand they fixed it).
3. I'll be able to use this housing if I upgrade to a newer RX100.
4. Much cheaper than the fully metal housings.
Other things that I found to be better than my previous housing are:
5. The front dial to change aperture/shutter speed works extremely well and is comfortable to use.
6. The rear buttons each have a different height so they are easy to press.
7. Double O ring which makes me feel more secure.
There are only two cons for me with this one:
1. The mode dial is quite awful, either doesn't work or skips multiple modes at once. This is the only thing that was superior on my older housing.
2. The lever shutter button is still not excellent, still quite difficult to half click.
Other thoughts:
Although this housing cannot control the rear dial it doesn't bother me too much since when I'm in M mode I just go for a sec to S mode and change the shutter speed then back to M mode to change the aperture.
The RX100 is good enough for me underwater that I don't think I need a newer RX100, with the external flash I don't use high ISOs and I don't use much auto focus since most of my good photos come with the +7 diopter which I find only usable with focus peaking.
The big plus side: you don't need a new housing if you upgrade to a never camera in the RX-100 series!
But as any underwater camera enthusiast knows, your o-ring will eventually need to be replaced. It is a small piece of rubber that provides the watertight seal. The housing instructions itself say that with the slightest damage or deformation it should be replaced, or at least once a year.
The problem —- Sony no longer makes this small spare part - and Sony will tell you to contact their authorized parts partner. They in turn don’t even have this housing in their records and certainly don’t have this small piece of rubber that costs a tiny amount to make —— I found a seller in Europe that sold it for around $40 and then shipped it to you for another $25. With only 1 left in stock
Soooo for me, it took 3 months before I wanted to get a spare the o-ring (guessing it should be more than $5 part! ), and if you can’t get it at a reasonable price, makes your ENTIRE underwater housing obsolete!!!
So obsolescence is programmed into this product within one year OR MUCH EARLIER if you use it frequently!
Perfection. There is plenty of space for small dessicant packs. The housing will accommodate any of the RX-100 series.
The housing allows for use of all functions and it's perfectly set up.
I am using this for video and love the ability to take stills at the same time. Great form and function. The housing is simple and easy to use.
