That comparison with and without the dome was exactly what I was looking for! Not sure if the dome is worth the price but damn those shots with it are super sick. Thanks for the review! Have a great 2021 Phil!
@PhillipSkraba3 жыл бұрын
Yes, I thought they’d help as I once thought I could do it without the dome 😂 The dome gives you such a crisp water line, it’s stunning. I’d pay the extra, well, I did. I bought two different ones a couple of years back, one leaked, the other snapped, so I picked up the fiftyfifty for my Hero 7 and have been happy ever since. You’re welcome, all the best in 2021 Aran!

Well it sounds like it's made of plastic which is why it's recommended to not use Normal Rain-X as it's not intended for plastics. But if it's glass i dont see why not. Amazon actually has a Rain-X 620036 Plastic Treatment spray for things like Motorcycle helmets and other similar plastics. Would probably be the ideal choice.

Nice review. Be careful, people - don't rest the dome on surfaces without a protector like in this video - certainly don't press down on it while inserting the camera or otherwise - it can scratch the dome lens!
@PhillipSkraba2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Well, I was pretty sure my table wouldn't scratch it and I was demonstrating this version has replaceable domes lol. In all seriousness though, yes, don't place it face down or you could scratch it up, it was a bad example on my part that I didn't have a towel on the table for it.

I’d go with the PolarPro, I had 2 cheap one from different companies, one leaked a little, the other snapped, so I ended up buying the PolarPro for my Hero 7, and this one PolarPro sent me so I’m super happy about that. It’s worth the extra penny 👌🏻

Thank you The only downside is can’t go more then 30 ft deep with this dome And i never saw anyone testing how deep can go the polar pro 50/ 50 dome with the naked GoPro 9 ( and the naked GoPro 9 also deep test never saw) Would be great do a how deep can go test on both 🤙🏼👊🏼🎥 Thank you again

The clips are poor quality, the design isnt 100% proof of water going in after used a few times (opening and closing). The quality of the plastic dome as well pretty easily get scratched from the sands too (Pretty invisible on your hands). I think Gdrome has a better design and quality but more expensive.

I find Polarpro stuff too expensive, I have a Telesin dome that does the same job at $30 and I get great results. I'm not a professional photographer but I upgrade my gopro every few years which can be a problem if I've spent a lot of money on accessories that now don't fit my new camera. Thanks for the review though.
@PhillipSkraba3 жыл бұрын
I had a Telesin at the beginning, it leaked on me, then I had a GoPole one that snapped in one place, so I ended up buying the PolarPro, and I've been happy with it ever since. This new one is really great, and I'm happy we can now buy replacement domes. Yes, I try to upgrade my GoPro every couple of years too, expensive stuff. I had two things, the dome and the Aer that changed on me after upgrading from the Hero 7 to the Hero 9. This is one I'd recommend, really nice. You're welcome!

Would you say the upgrade from a hero 7 +Dome to a hero 9 + Dome is worth it in terms of quality bump in stills you can get when using the dome? (I have been unable to find someone that can elaborate on this. Since you're the first youtuber who owns both. Can you elaborate?
@PhillipSkraba3 жыл бұрын
I've found it to be much higher quality and a lot better design, ease of use. The dome itself seems similar in see-through quality, but the Hero 9 won't fit in the Hero 7 dome, so an upgrade is needed if you have the Hero 9.
