4 out of 5 stars Fabulous   October 24, 2009
L. Stallones (Colorado)
This was a fabulous addition to our Mexico adventure. We bought this hoping we would capture a few good shots...over 400 shots and movies at depths of 70 feet. This housing is very easy and simple to use. My only suggestions are...get a red filter (everything looks blue the deeper you go), and use the little silica bags to stop fogging. Sometimes the lens area would fog due to battery heat. Simple fix. This is a must have for underwater photos. A GREAT BUY.


5 out of 5 stars My Favorite Camera Accessory Ever   April 15, 2009
B. Sewell (Atlanta, GA USA)
As someone who is an avid hobbyist photographer, I specifically purchased a G9 with buying this underwater housing in mind. I was a little apprehensive at first because I've suffered a camera loss at the hands of other ziploc-like underwater camera protectors. I shouldn't have worried. I bought the additional weights as suggested in another review and got myself a velcro closure wrist strap and everything went swimmingly. I love the fact that all of the G9's manual settings are readily available, and I also appreciate the presets for times when I am too excited or distracted to worry about settings. I always thought of the bright yellow neck strap as an annoyance and knotted it on the side, until my husband forgot to fasten the wrist strap and dropped the camera onto the ocean floor on a scuba trip. Lucky for him, the bright strap floated up and made the camera visible in the murky depths.

I have had at least twenty people on various beaches and boats ask me where I got the housing and camera and to see my pictures. The G9 is a real powerhouse as far as point and shoots go, and this is the perfect accessory. I have had to replace the seal on the housing once, but that is to be expected since it's been heavily used for two years. The seals are not hard to find and order. If you enjoy photography and you love the ocean like our family does, this is a must have accessory.



5 out of 5 stars Fantastic case, worth the $$$   April 13, 2009

I recently purchased this for a snorkeling trip to Grand Cayman. It was fantastic! All of the controls were operable underwater but I recommend setting the underwater function prior to going into the water as it is difficult to see the setting underwater. I ended up taking more pictures underwater than above ground. Absolutely airtight. I did not end up purchasing the weights as I only used this for snorkeling and had no issues with it floating away. Highly recommended, can't wait to use it again!


5 out of 5 stars Great underwater gadget   March 5, 2009

It looks like something from outer space but it works very well. The functions are easy to use just like the camera. The photos it takes underwater show great color. Would buy this again and again.
