Hey guys! this is my first post so I don't know if I'm in the right area.
I am looking to purchase a underwater house for a nikon d3200. I know the prices range from 300 to 4k but i was wondering if anyone had one before and would like to give me input on what to buy!
Thank you

Welcome to the forum! UW housings are very expensive and sometimes unwieldy to use. And if they leak, well your camera becomes a paperweight. Honestly, if you want to get into UW photography, I recommend you look at getting a Nikonos V. It is a dreaded film (the horror!) camera but it is designed to be used underwater and is very easy to use. And certain lenses can be used above water too And they can be had now on Fleabay for not a lot of money. I got a Nikonos V 20 years ago, along with an SB105 strobe and 35mm and 28mm UW Nikkors and have taken some great images with it.

Depending on what you are looking to do, I have a gopro hero 3 and works great underwater and a cheaper option.
