 I was worried, but it worked great! July 12, 2008
I purchased the wp100 for my Canon SD790 at the last minute to take on my trip to Cancun. Well, I just got back, and I can honestly say that this did a great job on my snorkeling trip! The camera fit perfectly, and the black ring over the lens only showed up in a couple of pictures out of 60 or so that I took- mainly because the camera shifted slightly in the pack without me noticing. Once I made my adjustment, it was perfect! Yes, the controls are sometimes difficult to maneuver (hence 4 instead of 5 stars), especially zooming, but it doesn't take long to get used to it. This is definitely one of the best purchases I've made in awhile. It will be difficult to know when this DicaPac needs replacing, so I may not use this more than a few times before buying a new one...just to be safe. I don't want a leak to be my signal that it's time to replace. Even if it's only used 2 or 3 times, it's still a great deal and a much better alternative than buying disposable underwater cameras!
It works June 29, 2008
It works, and my canon sd1000 is small enough that it even floats.
It makes me feel much better about taking my camera to the lake (though for the cost of the case I have to wonder if I wouldn't have been better off buying a cheap camera and putting it in a zip-lock bag).
Sealing mechanism is a single zip-lock style zipper at the end of a flap. The flap gets rolled up and covered by a larger flap that closes with velcro. I would feel a little better about the case if the manufacturer had employed a double-zipper design, but the single-zipper design gets the job done.
The water in most Oklahoma lakes is not clear enough to make taking underwater photos a possibility, though I think I would be comfortable taking my camera 5-10 feet under water in this waterproof case.
Protected camera perfectly, but hard to operate controls June 26, 2008

I used the case for our recent trip to Niagara Falls. The camera was in the case for all of the attractions in and around the falls. We were standing in pouring water and the case did not leak. Several times I loaded and removed the camera from the case (to download pictures). The case held up very well.
My only complaint was that it was impossible to work the controls, e.g. change shooting mode, zoom, etc. As such, I had to keep the camera on automatic and at wide angle.
Overall, well worth the money.
 Met expectations June 26, 2008

I read all the reviews before I bought this item and decided it wasn't worth the risk to submerge it under water at any point, regardless of the "tissue test." That said, I bought it to protect my new camera from sand, rain, etc. on a recent trip to Costa Rica. It added peace of mind when I used the camera and performed just as I hoped. As mentioned in other reviews, be sure to line the lens up before taking any pictures as you'll find a black corner in your pictures from the case otherwise.
All in all, worth the money for what it is, and go in with lowered expectations.
Good for the Price June 1, 2008
this case works very well. however, your camera will probably slide around inside of it and, therefore, your pictures/videos might contain the circular outline of the zoom protector.
all in all, this is a good product for the money. good investment if you're looking for something simple to protect your camera underwater.
