 "Camera floated from Aruba to Florida" 2010-06-16
By juicy
I just read about a Nikon in an underwater case survives a floating journey from Aruba to Florida and how the founder tracked down the owner. Good story but the model of the case was not revealed. It looks like this case I have for my L22. Hope the links still work. See, don't they look the same?

Mine worked fine while snorkeling in Guam. Looks like the case for Nikon L18 is not available anymore. I have a Cannon IS850 also, wish I have the money to get one for it too since they are pricey.

 "Works great!" 2010-01-18
By L. Simon (Chicago, IL USA)
Works very nicely and the Canon took great pictures that required less color correction than other point and shoot cameras I've used in the past. Most underwater photos need some color correction - usually the autocorrect, or lighting autocorrect, on Photoshop Elements or similar programs does it.

 "Worth every penny!! Great Product!!!" 2009-10-02
By V. Wijeratne (Atlanta,GA)
I cant say enough about this product. Canon did a wonderful job with it. I love using it. Construction is rock solid. Works perfect. It actually captures sound too when you do video under water, impressive!!! If I were to pick anything negative about it, it would be the fact that when you bring the case from under water to outside the water kind of streaks on the front lenses. Now this very well could be a common problem for any kind of water proof case. Plus I was using it mostly in the ocean. Easily clean out though. Bottom line: I would recommend it.

 "Satisfied" 2009-08-16
By R. FAUZA (michigan)
I recently came back from a scuba trip to Mexico. I thought it would be a good idea to take my camera under the sea, so I decided to try out this case. It sealed perfectly, and all the buttons and functions are as easily accessible as they are in the camera alone. It took me a while to figure out where the under water shooting mode was, since I did not take my manual, but, for anyone looking for it, it is in between the video shooting mode and the auto picture mode, and it tones down the color blue for a more natural tone. I personally liked the regular auto mode better as the underwater mode made it seem darker. And for night diving, the auto mode worked perfect because the pictures you can take are only from close targets, using diffused flash (diffuser included) or a flash light and the blue from the sun is not present.


They recommend you open the case, wash it and reseal it for every use, or at least every separate day you go to use it. I used it for three days straight without opening the case. The rubber seal and the silicone gel remained intact and not noticeable water entered the case, but on the last day, when I finally opened the camera I saw some dry droplets on the inside of the lens of the case. So if you're taking the camera to a depth where pressure will be high, I would open it every day to clear out the moisture, though no water leaked in. The pictures and videos were great. Good product.

 "Definitely worth it!" 2009-06-26
By R. Kim (Paramus, NJ United States)
I bought this for a recent trip to Aruba. I used it while snorkeling, while in the pool and just hanging out at the beach. I was a little nervous because if the case leaked I would be out a great camera, but it works like a charm! You can't even tell that the picture was taken with the case on, except for the occasional water drop that might show up.

It's also great to use while on the beach so that you can be sure sand doesn't get into the lenses.

The only thing I'm not a fan of is the attachment needed for when you use flash. I didn't use it at all so it wasn't a big issue. But I found that if that attachment was pushed all the way in, it was really hard to get it off. I tried it and was afraid I would have to break it. I eventually did and will be careful not to have it too tight. If you use flash though, you will need it. The shape of the case is a little weird so if you don't use the attachment you'll get shadowing in the corner. Wish they'd thought of that, little annoying to deal with, but doubt they will make another, since it's only made for one specific camera.

But this is a great product! Works great. It's a little expensive but if you want good underwater pictures I think it's worth it.

 "Can't see in bright light what I aim at" 2009-05-20
By Maui Tim (Maui)
Can't see blank without viewfinder shade esp in bright sun on ocean. Anyone know if a shade exists for this WP-DC17 case?




Or an attachable shade or other WP kit, or housing kit for the WP-DC17? Does the WP-DC1 model have a viewfinder shade and will a SD-870 ISO fit in it?

 "Hard to ask more from it" 2010-07-31
By M. Donato
I had an olympus 770UZ and its case (don't remember the name); I was used to the bulky, big and uncomfortable housing; whenever I went underwater I was in "christmas tree" mode, with that huge thing.


The Canon case is wonderful!!! I use it for snorkeling and it's not bulky at all.

All the command but the ring in the back are accessible, but it's not that of a trouble, I usually leave the aperture at 2 and use the front ring for exposure control, but this is just my opinion. The only *negative* thing that I can say is that there is no front cap and I am trying to find a solution to that.

For the other aspects, I am more more more than satisfied. I am actually planning to buy a spare one!

 "Great add on for S90" 2010-07-22
By Bookworm
I used the housing to make several movies and pictures in the swimming pool with the kids and they love the results as much as I do. The build quality seems very good to me, and even the operation all of the camera's features (except for the dial on the back of the camera, which is not a real issue to me) is extremely easy.

The lens glass is coated and my first impression is that it does not loose a lot of light compared to regular camera shots without the housing. Also water drips of easily from the coating, so out of water pictures are hardly disturbed by water drops on the housing lens.

I have not tested the housing to depth and I did not plan to do so. I just want to use it for swimming pool/beach use or snorkeling at max. And for that it is a lot of fun and adding an extra dimension to making pictures.

Regarding the price, it is difficult to say if it is really worth it. I can imagine that for snorkeling or diving this is a very good and price worthy alternative to more professional and more expensive solutions. For beach and swimming pool use it is a lot of money, but for me personally I have great new type of pictures and videos of my kids now that I normally would never have. My kids love watching them. So for me - in terms of creating new type of memories - it is definitely worth it and the housing is a cool thing to have.

delivery was timely, the product was a gift and so far no problems has been encountered. will use the same provider again

 "Great Case" 2010-06-03
By R Stephenson
This case is great for what it does. I usually expect to pay a lot more for underwater housing. I agree with one of the other reviews that Canon should have included a couple of weights. The only complaint I have is that they went to all the trouble to include the front ring adjuster but don't have any way to adjust the back ring. This means that you can't have it on fully manual to do aperture and shutter speed. I found a way around it by setting aperture and then using the over - under exposure button but it should be easier. The camera is awesome for underwater (see the slug and cuttle fish pictures) but I won't use flash until I have an off camera option.
