Sony AKA-RD1 Replacement Doors for Sony Action Cam HDR-AS10 and HDR-AS15, 2 Pack (Clear/Black)

I purchased these doors hoping to get rid of the slight fish eye trend in some of my dive videos that the standard door gave occasionally. The increased audio door is outstanding on land and really helps with audio quality (I haven't tested it underwater). I would like to see an easy to use red filter for flat dive cover to add color back to my videos at depth.As a side note I purchased a 12" x 12" sheet of light gel and attached with clear rev sealant as a test to see if it would work and the second attempt to do this worked great (the first try used a piece of the gel that had a slight defect). This gave me exactly what I was looking for for diving. An easy to remove filter would be great since now my dive cover is not really usable on land; however since the attachment that I did was rtv I can easily peel it off and have a clear cover if needed. This I didn't feel detracted from the quality of the product and am including as an idea if you you are looking for the same thing that I was.Outstanding product and works great (both covers).

This kit includes the flat lens underwater door and the enhanced audio door. Both doors retain waterproofness ratings when used with the waterproof case, however the enhanced audio door is only waterproof to about 10m / 33 feet while the underwater door is 60m / 197 feet. The reason is that the enhanced audio door uses a type of rubber membrane over the microphone cutouts, and can possibly rupture/leak in deeper water.The enhanced audio door does allow for slightly clearer audio recording while retaining protection for the camera. This is perfect for motorcycles, cars, and other motorsport/outdoor activity. Just don't expect it to be as clear as not having the door covering the microphone. However, it does prevent excessive wind noise from being recorded. If you uncover the microphones completely, wind noise is a major problem. With the original door, flat underwater door, and the enhanced audio door, wind noise is not really a problem.That said, even the original door for the Sony HDR-AS10 allows for audio recording that is light years ahead of the Go Pro Hero 3. I can tell right away from YouTube videos that a video was recorded using the GoPro because the audio is absolutely horrible. With this enhanced audio door, the Sony recordings are better than before.The flat underwater lens would work perfectly with the V2.00/V3.00 firmware that has underwater auto white balance. However, I did not test the flat underwater lens in a diving scenario. I only evaluated the enhanced audio door and felt that while it allows slightly better audio recordings, it is expensive to buy this kit.Overall: 4/5 stars, great accessories for the AS10/AS15 that retain the waterproofness of the case. The enhanced audio door allows for slightly better audio recordings, but don't expect it to be as clear as not having a door in front of the camera. Overall it is still much better than the GoPro Hero 3 at recording audio. It does retain waterproofness down to 10m / 33 feet though.

I WANTED the water proof doors and this came with the "microphone holes." I needed the doors for a job so i couldn't return. Please label this product more carefully

The AKA RD1 makes a great improvement over the door provided with the camera. I am over the Sony action cam though. The unrealistic blue hue ,the wireless range is greatly exaggerated and very close to useless and not being able to mount the camera directly to a tripod are too many negatives to overcome. I wasted my money don't waste yours.

I like that door a lot. It allows you to record the clear sound and to keep your camera inside of the housing cover.The one that comes with the camera is good as well, but it keeps the microphone covered. Get it if you going to use the camera in a condition when you need the sound, but you are afraid of dropping the camera by accident. Thats about it.

If you're going to film underwater, rather than just needing protection from the rain and such, then you need this door. Without it, the camera's focus appears to be "off". (Whether too close or too far, I can't tell.) Get it. Use it. If you're shooting underwater, you'll be sorry if you don't spend the extra money to complete your camera's functionality.

I actually was not 100% what this was about. It has two doors - an improved door with better access to the microphones (at the expense of reducing underwater depth from 130 ft to 10 ft). This door has a thin membrane (two holes covered by membrane) that presumably allow more sound to travel to the stereo microphones. I have not tried it yet, but surely a big improvement over ZERO openings on the factory door.The 2nd door is a flat (vs convex) door - this apparently makes for clearer pictures under water. I have not tried it yet, but makes sense if they optimized the convex door for out of water activities.

Sony replied directly to a customer question and stated that it would fit the case for the AS100V. It does not.
