5.0 out of 5 stars Great accessory, January 31, 2003

By A Customer

I have the waterproof case for the S100 and S110. It is fantastic and is what prompted me to buy the digital elph. I've taken this sailing, snorkeling, windsurfing, and fishing and it has taken many photos underwater. It's also protected my camera from rain in boats.
The great thing is on one hand you have a good waterproof camera if you use this housing. And when you don't need it, you take the camera out and it's a tiny regular camera again. Very flexible to meet the needs of the moment.

Really nice accessory.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceeded my expectations, December 26, 2003

Within a couple weeks of purchase, I had this case as deep as 105ft of water for three consecutive days, twice a day. I probably averaged about 50ft for around for an hour per dive. Point? 6 hours of real depth with no problems and spectacular pictures that beyond surprised me from the S200 Camera. Get close to your subject, probably use the flash (I used the auto setting for the most part--and the diffuser thingy on this case) and the camera/housing will do the rest.

Never had a drop get into the housing even though I exceeded the max depth (barely) a couple of times. Follow the instructions, treat the gasket with love, and TEST IT before you subject your camera to it. They walk you through the process in the manual, and it's kinda common sense.

All of the camera controls are very easily accessible, no hint of leaks. There is not cloth bag or anything with the case, so I use a ski-goggle bag. It should also be stored OPEN so the gasket does not stay compressed for long periods of time.

If you use it, you will be happy. Everyone I was with (including a number of people that initially scoffed at the little camera) were impressed with the performance.

Oh yeah, with the camera, the whole things is a little bit negative (it sinks slowly). Not a big deal, but know you won't see it bob to the surface if you let it go.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great. Nice solid product, December 30, 2003

I bought this case for a dive to the Great Barrier Reef. I was able to get photos and video with total ease using this case. The construction is really solid and you can use all of the camera's controls. I even dove to 32 meters and was worried because the case is only rated for 30 but it held up fine. Never had any leaks. Well worth the price.
