Does the job for a good price October 9, 2008
I've had a chance to use this housing for snorkelling, so I can only speak to depth up to 10-15ft deep. Not sure how it would perform at diving depths, but I do plan to test out Canon's claim that it is good to 120ft. Anyway, this thing has kept my camera dry and allowed me to use it with ease. All the features of the camera are accessible with the case. The flash diffuser is OK, but you can't expect great lighting from an on board flash underwater anyway. This is a quality solution to underwater photography at a price to satisfy the recreational photographer.
worked great September 21, 2008
I took this on a whitewater rafting trip and it worked great. All the buttons are easy to use and the photos turned out just as good as if the camera wasn't in the case. The case is a little bulky compared to the camera size, but I guess it's necessary. I didn't take the camera to any depth greater than a couple of feet, so I can't comment on diving with it.
great case for great pictures September 13, 2008
I have had my Canon camera for about 2 years now & have wanted to purchase a underwater case & finally did so before our trip to Cabo. Besides the camera this is one of the best products I have purchased. Although the Canon WP-DC9 WaterProof Case for Canon SD800 IS Digital Camera is a little more expensive than a generic underwater case it is WELL WORTH THE $. It is extremely easy to uses as it works just like the camera, & it only took me a couple minutes to learn how to operate it.
I did "test" the case before putting the camera into it, by placing a small frame inside the case and keeping it in the sink overnight, and as promised no leaks.
We used it on a daily basis, wether it was in the pool, on the deep sea fishing trip or snorkeling in the ocean. The pictures and videos have turned out fabulous. I am thrilled with the new options I have for taking pictures!!
Opens a whole new world for your digital ELPH September 10, 2008
Very well thought out product and it fits the camera perfectly. All functions are accessible via buttons or levers, and if you're familiar with your ELPH the controls should give you no problems even with gloves on. A very compact housing, good quality, and is very useful for whitewater rafting, beach and surf, and other places besides underwater.
Exteme Usage on Grand Canyon Rafting Trip September 9, 2008
Bought this case for use on a 6 day Grand Canyon rafting trip. It was subject to heat, water, rapids, bouncing off rocks on hikes, underwater swimming around waterfalls, sand, etc. I even hung it around my neck and recorded video of the most extreme rapids. During those sessions it was repeatedly bounced off the rubber raft, my hard head on one occasion and constantly hammered with water. It performed flawlessly. Everyone one on the trip wanted to know where I got it. My only suggested enhancement would be to include a "lens" cover to protect the lens port when the unit is not is use. There is a nice metal gasket around the lens port and the glass is recessed to provide some protection, however, the glass could get scratched. I am going to add one for future trips. Great job by the Canon design team!
