    I took my digital camera and the DiCAPac Waterproof Case with me to the Caribbean on my vacation. I went snorkeling twice and both times was able to take awesome pictures. I tested the product out as soon as it came to my house to make sure there were no holes or flaws and it worked beautifully for both the test and the real adventures of underwater fun. I know it’s scary, but the DiCAPac Waterproof Digital Camera Case worked for me.

    Not worth it
    I have a Canon SD970 IS and bought this item for vacation in the Bahamas. The bag does not fit the camera so everytime I want to take a shot, I have to adjust the camera so that…

    I just spent a week in St. Croix USVI and took a lot of snorkeling photos. When I recieved the case I was a little skeptical. This is basically a heavy duty zip lock bag with a glass lens. After a week of use, it is still going strong. I took several shots at 20 feet deep with no leakage. I was very pleased with the pictures. It is a bit hard to use as you are working the camera through a baggy, but hey, the hard plastic case is $170!

    So, overall, no complaints. This bag should work for you, but I would definately test it at home first. I stuffed it with paper towels, and put mine in a big pot of water for a couple of hours, no leaks. It was a little tight with my Canon A95, but it did fit. Make sure your camera lens lines up with the baggie lens. I was careful not to strech the zip lock.

    Great bang for buck
    This little zip-lock bag is awesome. It works great. I’ve used it in the ocean, on lakes, and many times in the pool. Now, I don’t go down deep, maybe two feet at most.

    I bought this underwater case with apprehension. I used it in Cozumel and it performed wonderfully and was rewarded with excellent underwater shots. It is easy to use and accomodated the telephoto function of the camera.

    Not impress
    I just got this product and tested it with paper in the case to prevent damaging the camera; so far so good.

    It actually works!!!
    Got this to take pictures of my salt water reef aquarium and am presently surprised. Very flexible, works exactly as expected.

    Works great!
    I took this rafting with me this past weekend and it worked great! I even dunked it in the 55-degree (F) water and took a couple of shots (they didn’t come out that great), but I…

    Definitely Dry
    We bought the WP-500 for our Caribbean Cruise. It was our second DiCAPac bag (our new camera didn’t fit our older and smaller bag). It worked like a camp.

    Didn’t fit, jammed lens barrel!
    Though this was specifically supposed to fit my CASIO Exilim 600, the lens barrel repeated got caught in the lens recess, even though I attempted to use the included lens barrel…

    Worked great–then leaked
    I reviewed this product with an ecstatic 5 stars several months ago. It worked great in several swimming pools, on a trip to Hawaii, and through half of our time in Belize…

    Works Surprisingly Well
    I purchased this item prior to going on a Caribbean cruise. We wanted to take shots while snorkeling and climbing the Dunns Falls in Jamaica.

    Can’t beat the price but needed modification to work well.
    I bought this generic water proof bag for my Cannon PowerShot S50 instead of buying the $200 dollar Cannon waterproof case.
