 Worthless!! March 21, 2007
I bought this as a gift for my son in law, who took it snorkeling once. It leaked and is now worthless. Do not purchase.
 Good package to start with. December 27, 2006

I have used this camera on about a dozen dives to 85 feet and several snorkle trips with satisfactory results and no leaks. Just be sure to keep the seal clean and to inspect it closely after closing to ensure you did not pinch or roll the seal. It's easy to handle and simple to operate in the water. After a couple hundred photos, I made a significant upgrade to a DC600, but the SL300 was a great package for me to be sure the large investment to upgrade would be worthwhile (and to give me confidence in the DC600 housing). My biggest complaint is that the flash button is automatically activated by pressure and the flash is always on below about 20 feet. This drains the battery as well as removes the option to not use the flash. Also, remember after shooting a roll of film, the rewind is motorized, but not automatic.
Look elsewhere November 4, 2006
After successfully testing 1 roll through the camera at home, the camera broke before my first dive on vacation. The motor drive would not load the film correctly. I bought the cheapest encased point and shoot camera at the dive shop, which worked well.
Good little camera for the price August 15, 2006

Not bad at all for the price. I had a very sophisticated camera before so this one is a bit simplistic - BUT it still takes photos. I would NOT advise using 400 speed film AND the flash - all the pictures came out a surreal blue. Stays nice and dry - LOVE the wrist strap!
Junk. Returned it. Read all the reviews and make your decision. June 19, 2006

When a product gets a couple of good reviews and a LOT of bad ones, you have to suspect something is wrong. Listen to your suspicions in this case. Those two good reviews here on Amazon may be true, but then why so many bad reviews? And one reviewer wrote that he put silicon grease on the gasket...nothing in the instructions about that. So one of the positive reviews actually modified the product to make it work!
This is not a quality product. It leaked on the second roll of film, despite extreme care in seating the gasket. I have purchased single-use underwater cameras which give much better results, and I recommended those over this junk.
