Cressi Dive Mask for Action CamerasThis is a top quality standard size adult dive mask with the added feature of an integral mount on the top of the mask that will fit any smaller action camera. That means that, when you turn the camera on, you can just look at what you want to shoot and you're shooting it, leaving your hands completely free during the dive.The mount is secure so you won't need to worry about your action camera whilst in the water, and the mask itself has a number of high quality features that lift it above the usual good quality of Cressi dive masks. Overall, this is a top quality functional product offering a really natural experience when scuba diving or free diving.===

I've recently returned from a holiday in the Caribbean where I carried out a dozen dives wearing the Cressi cam mask.I've read some of the reviews regarding 'fogging'. Dive masks require proper preparation prior to using for diving/snorkelling. I spent around half an hour using a specialist dive mask glass cleaning compound and it was time well spent. After preparation, all that was required prior to entering the water, was some Cressi anti-fog spray, a quick rinse and I didn't have a single instance of fogging througout any of my dives.I found the mask sealed well on my face and this was without the straps being pulled too tight. With the snorkel attached using a detachable clip,

Impossible to disagree with any of the previous reviews here in the sense that this is an incredibly light (making it ideal for travel), incredibly comfortable (can be worn for hours without any discomfort), compact (travel agian) and superb overall performer. Wear this and you are donning a mask which will undoubtedly be in the kit bag of many a professional and it has to be one of the lightest masks I've ever worn. The only downside here is the price. Yes you are paying a premium for the brand and quality of components and interestingly enough when comparing like for like with my stock (and considerably cheaper) Phantom Aquatics Mask there is very little difference in overall performance.

I've been a big fan of Cressi's snorkeling gear and have used them while snorkeling in various locations around the world. I heartily endorse the now-discontinued Kappa dry snorkel, the Alpha dry snorkel, Cressi Palau short fins, Cressi's "panorama" masks, and, the Big Eyes Evolution Crystal mask.Having owned and enjoyed Cressi's Big Eyes Evolution Crystal mask, I can tell you that this Cressi "Air" Crystal mask is nearly identical in appearance (apart from some minor cosmetic differences in color pattern and molding on the frame) and offers the same excellent performance while under water. Both masks are made in Italy, as befits their flagship status in the Cressi mask lineup (some of Cressi's other excellent masks,

I do a lot of scuba diving and some snorkelling between dives and have used several masks over the years and have a few classic ones from the days of hard rubber and purge valves.Masks now typically silicone rather than hard rubber and thus as long as you pick the right one they won't take on water.When selecting a mask, the key features are...1. Fit - Test. Without the strap around your head, breathe in through your nose and try and pull the mask off your face.2. Nose - If you are going to scuba or duck dive you will have to equalise so you must be able to squeeze your nose with the mask on.3. Nose - Make sure the mask is not applying pressure to the top of your nose otherwise it will start

I’ve snorkeled many times over the years with rented equipment but I have, thus far, avoided the urge to pay for the overpriced products sold near snorkeling hot-spots. This mask is priced above the cost of some quite decent snorkel / mask sets - it's targeting a serious diver which is not where I am to be found in the market - but the higher manufacture quality, materials and design elements are there to be seen.The medium-volume mask fits my face well forming a comfortable, even pressured closure all round thanks to the supple silicone. The glass angles downwards towards the face and I can immediately understand why this is advantageous.

Great mask that fits comfortably, adjusts to a smaller head well, and is efficient. The GoPro attaches on the top, the mask has its own pin that requires an allen key (not included) and a standard GoPro black screw pin won't fit because it hits the top of the mask.Field of view through the mask is good, big front without too much bordering from the plastic outer. Doesn't feel claustrophobic, fits well with no leaks and no painful suction.Only negative is perhaps the pin, which though obviously needs to be like that for security and tightness, is really annoying when out in the field as it where having to need a very specific allen key to alter and adjust it. Other than that though,

A lovely comfortable mask with a very good field of view, lovely soft skirt. For me it seals extremely well and doesn't leak, hasn't fogged on me yet. A Plus point for me a generous sized nose pocket that doesn't put pressure on the bridge of your nose. Really well made and up some of the best out there and I've used a lot. Cressi really do make some really very good equipment that's up there with the best of them despite in most cases the lower prices. There masks are very well regarded and up with some of the best from other manufactures.As with all mask you need to clean the glass inside and out to remove any silicone coating or the mask will fog. Rub inside and out with tooth paste. Let it dry,

From the start my impression is quality. From the box it comes in to the actual product itself. The branded box is a solid plastic container that seals tight and makes storing the mask easy. The Mask itself feels good and is made to a great standard expected by Cressi. They fit around the face is perfect making a great seal around the eyes and nose areas due to the soft silicone. The straps are attached to a hinge that allows easy adjustment and the strap itself is designed to hold the mask on securely with no movement when diving. The lenses give great visibility ensuring a wide range of vision.All in all a really great product which i am sure will last for many years and much use.The lenses are tilted,

I have only had one other Cressi product - a pair of foldable sunglasses - and was very impressed with them, so when the opportunity came to try out a different product in the Cressi range - I was keen to do so. Although I am not a snorkeler myself, I gave the Dive Mask to my twenty-one year old son, who is. He put it through its' paces on a break in Greece, and was impressed. True, as others have said, the camera securing bolt requires and Allen key of a particular size, he was forewarned of this and was appropriately tooled up. The mask fitted snugly without the often annoying pinching, and the rubber straps can be adjusted to provide a comfortable fitting without pinching.

This mask comes in a transparent case which is re-closable, so you can use this to keep it safe while travelling. Like other Cressi masks that I have received, this is really excellent in terms of fit and comfort. The plastic is exceptionally soft – my children have been wearing Cressi masks and goggles while swimming and they now refuse to wear any other make; plus other parents have also been impressed by these. They leave none of the red marks that other face masks leave, but are soft and gentle.This particular mask has the ability to attach a small camera to it, such as a GoPro, so you can film underwater and swim hands free. The camera attaches firmly and the mask works well.

This is a fabulous snorkelling / scuba diving mask from a trusted manufacturer. Everything about this mask has been exceptionally well made, from the optics all the way to fitting and comfort. Mask is light and it comes in a transparent plastic container, which is very useful for storage and transport. Black rubber / silicone body is very soft and it seals around the eyes perfectly, while at the same time it doesn't push hard on the face and remains comfortable. Around the head strap is just as soft and malleable and it splits in two strips wide apart, so the pressure exerted at the back of the head is not localised in one place. Straps are very easy to adjust and the mask as easy to put on as it is to remove with a single stroke.

These googles are really good quality, with a lovely fit around the face thanks to the soft silicone which gives a really good fit around the eyes and face as well as easy to adjust. The straps even have a slight pivoting hinge, which makes it easier to put on and to get a comfortable fit on an individual face. The back of the strap is split, so that it hugs the back of your head and unlike cheaper goggles, these stay where they are put and don't ride up or down.The lenses are tilted, which improves vision and you get a really good range of vision around. The lenses are really good quality and are crystal clear. The mask is water tight when fitted properly and having tested it in the pool,

A snorkel is about the only thing I enjoy taking with me on holiday other than a good book and some good suntan lotion, when offered this to review I was excited to see what an expensive face google was like, I’ve only ever paid low money them, normally from a place on the prom while on holiday.First impression are a very well made maskI’m 6’1” 14.5 stone, I’d call myself fairly average build, I wear XL shirts, 34 waist, fit is perfect, its tight but it has to be water tight.This is very comfortable, normally I’m fiddling trying to get it to fit and not pinch, this is a very good soft fit.The viewing is clear, great field of view.This is obviously a serious bit of kit, its not cheap but boy its good,

A high quality professional mask suitable for scuba diving and snorkelling but a bit too high volume for freediving. This mask has the added feature of including an attachment just above the eyes for a go pro camera. This means you can fix the camera on and then just film pretty much your own eyes view of the dive. The mask does tip the mask forward a little out of the water but this remedies itself underwater. Mask is made of soft silicon for a comfortable fit, although it was a little large for my face, but I'm used to a Cressi minima. Without the camera, the Go Pro attachment is not obtrusive so you could equally use this without the camera. If you don't have another mask,
