 Possibly the best gadget I've ever purchased despite the price!! January 8, 2010

I hesitated for quite some time about buying this case. It was mostly because of the steep price (as much as what I paid just for the camera!). After going back and forth about it I decided to give it a shot since we will be going to Hawaii next week. I can honestly say that I understand why it costs so much for this case. You literally get a second camera out of your existing one.
The case is very well made, feels solid, latches very securely and tight. The external buttons and switches overlay the camera perfectly, and the camera fits in the case snuggly like a glove. Case is crystal clear and so is the lens. The included diffuser makes a HUGE difference in pictures...without it you get a dark shadow in the lower right hand corner of pictures because the case has a tubelike extension to accomodate for your lens zooming in and out in the case..this blocks some of the flash from getting to the other corner of your picture.
Also the case seems to magnify the flash giving it a pics a harsh appearance. The diffuser not only addresses that giving it a more natural light but also completely solves the problem with the shadows in the bottom right hand corner. I will upload some pictures of the case since there aren't any right now. Hopefully it will be equally impressive when we are actually in Hawaii!

Top Quality Hands down. If you take the camera anywhere outside this is a must have.
 Great except for one teeny weeny detail... September 29, 2009

This is an outstanding camera housing, but I have one complaint (and I do realize that I am to blame, but still) - with the teeny string that attaches the diffuser to the case (to prevent it from being lost if it should come off), I accidentally managed to get that caught in the seal while preparing for a night dive, and at 45 feet the seal popped and flooded the case.
Don't get me wrong, this is an outstanding case (see other reviews) but I would rather have a piece of rubber several mm thick to make a strap to hold it, to ensure that if it does get caught, it is noticeable before the point of no return... I can't be the only person that this has happened to! :S
Good product but I was double billed July 4, 2009

The underwater case is great and so is the little Canon camera. The problem is I was billed twice for the same product. I am trying to get it resolved.
Near perfect but scraches way to easily. June 8, 2009

I got this case so I could try taking photos in wet conditions and while scuba diving.
For scuba diving I found this case to be ideal. Easy to seal up, all controls functioned nicely though the case. Very good picture quality.
However I can't give this case five stars because how how quickly I scratched up the back of the case. Just against a shirt using the neck strap I got some significant scratches that made the screen very difficult to see though the case. I don't know if they can be removed, but many more scratches and I'll have to declare the case unusable because the screen would be too obscured to see what your photographing clearly.
Canon needs to provide a method to prevent scratches perhaps with a protection film or something that can be applied to the back of the case.
