I was wondering if anyone has used a waterproof iPhone case to take underwater pictures, if so what brand and how did the pictures turn out? Thanks

I haven't but know at least two who have. It works. Make sure you test it before putting your phone in.

I used an Aryca case designed specifically for the iPhone4. It worked perfectly in the sense that it kept the water out and took decent pictures. I'm not a deep diver, but I probably got down to 10 feet a few times with no leakage. Probably the best feature was the way the case worked with the side buttons (which can be used for snapping pictures). It was possible to press the on-screen buttons through the front membrane, but the side buttons were much easier to press.

The main problem with this case was that it was hard to see the LCD display through the flexible front membrane, so I was kind of shooting blind much of the time. Also, the tacky external surface of the membrane attracted sand and dust. The sand mostly washed off when it went into the water, but made the case unappealing on dry land.

You can see a sample of the pictures I took with it here: http://s1116.beta.photobucket.com/user/ ... er%20shots

It wasn't terribly expensive. I got it at a dive store for about $40 - probably even cheaper online. In fact, the iPhone4 model is probably dirt cheap now that the iPhone5 is out.

Should be fine for snorkeling and very shallow. I would avoid going diving with it, as a dive professional I have seen instances where it has popped a leak and insurance will NOT cover this. Fordeeper diving you can buy a disposable camera that t is good for about 20-25 feet underwater, they take rather good pics.

Take a look at the Lifeproof cover, its very slim and works great

There is no way I'd use my iPhone for underwater pics. There are plenty of inexpensive cameras for that specific use.
