3.0 out of 5 stars good for beginner snorkelers & for the pool but BE CAREFUL, July 17, 2006
By C. Schwab (Round Rock, TX) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this housing case for my SD450 last month for my trip to Aruba last week. The first few times I used it, it was great. I snorkeled at the Antilles shipwreck and got great pictures of fish, coral, etc. After coming in contact with salt water, I washed it so it the metal parts wouldnt rust and let everything dry for the next day's adventure. Well, when we went to the pool, the case leaked and soaked my camera. It turns out the o-ring that creates the seal had some how enlarged (as if it was stretched out) so when I closed the case, a pinch of the rubber was out of the case and thus not having a water tight seal. It was quite the inconvenience during my vacation, but after contacting Canon, they're going to repair the camera and look into the case. Just be careful and check that everything is REALLY sealed before going into the water.

EDIT: Canon sent me a refurb camera and a new case since the camera was beyond repair. I have since used the case while snorkeling at the Caymen Islands, kayaking in San Diego and have brought it to the famous Schlitterbahn waterpark a few times. It really comes in handy when you can take your own pictures and not have to pay $20 for a picture someone else took. I'm vacationing to Alaska this year and will definitely be bringing the camera and case along when I go kayaking!

5.0 out of 5 stars worked well for me, but be cautious, April 3, 2007
By justjoem (McAlester, OK) - See all my reviews
This case worked perfectly on a recent snorkeling vacation. I had read reviews saying the O-ring/gasket had pinched when case closed not providing a good seal and instantly ruining a camera. This occurs most commonly after you have removed the O-ring to lubricate it with the silicone grease. The case is clear and you can easily see if pinching is happening if you look for it. Indeed the O-ring did pinch in one spot as I closed the case on the second day of use. I readjusted the O-ring slightly and closed the case again without any pinching of the O-ring. I suspect the camera would have been ruined on the second day if I had not seen reviews stressing the need to check the O-ring for proper seal as you close the case each time. Here is a link to a picture taken with the SD450 and this case.

5.0 out of 5 stars PowerShot Underwater Case, January 4, 2007
By Buffalo Gal (Delaware) - See all my reviews
I purchased this case mainly for a trip to St. Lucia for snorkeling. It was wonderful! Easy to put the camera in, and very easy to use. Took wonderful underwater pictures during snorkeling trips. My grandson (7) also has taken fun pictures with it in a swimming pool. Only thing I have to remember is to wipe the front of the case when getting out of the water before taking land pictures. Would highly recommend this even for rainy days and beach excursions.

The product worked well until we forgot to dutifully check the seal one time. Oops. There must've been a hair or piece of dust that compromised the seal. Read more

Case worked perfectly for the first few days on shallow dives. Seal wore out after 4 uses. Kinda useless then isn't it? Also, cannot find replacement seal.
