It's rated to 164 feet and uses pro-grade glass for crisp detail, even in surge or uneven light. The dome stays invisible in the final stitch, and the 2-prong mount with a 1/4-20 adapter keeps it compatible with typical dive and action rigs.
The Insta360 X5 Invisible Dive Case Pro is designed for underwater 360° videographers and photographers using the Insta360 X5 camera. Its key benefit is enabling clear, distortion-free underwater footage with a seamless 360° stitch, even at depths up to 50 meters. A potential caveat is the need for careful handling to maintain the optical clarity of the dome port.
