Summary: It leaked!!! And Customer Service would not repair for free
Review: My Canon Powershot S400 was less than a year old and I bought the WP-DC800. It flooded on my second dive which was not greater than 75 feet. The camera was ruined. Canon wanted to charge me $300 to fix the flooded camera. I told them it was because of the leaky housing but they returned the camera to me not fixed. I have used other underwater cameras for almost 10 years and this is the first time I ever had a flooding. Great idea but poor product.

Summary: Works as advertised
Review: Not much to say about this. It promises to keep the camera dry underwater, and has worked as advertised for me on several occassions.

Note: READ THE DIRECTIONS!!! The most important things to remember when using any underwater camera housing are

1) prepare the housing in a cool, air conditioned area,

2) make very sure that the rubber seal and surrounding area are free of hairs, sand, etc.,

3) DO NOT repeatedly open and close the housing after it has been prepared, and before you dive (snorkel, whatever).

Just be mindful of what you're doing, use some common sense, and this will work great.

Summary: Works beautifully
Review: This underwater housing worked beautifully. Used it all week in Bonaire and it worked like a charm. Had full control over my camera and never caused any problems. I've got underwater pictures at http://www.theshroyers.com/bonaire/snorkel.shtml
